Has anybody had experience with these two products. At first I really liked both of them but am losing faith.
On the T3 broadheads I agree that they do fly just like field tips but after using them the first time it is next to impossible to keep the blades locked into position with the supplied clips. I even spent a couple of hours in a blind while hunting trying to adjust the clips to hold the blades properly and was not able to be 100% sure that the blades would not deploy early. I even used new clips and had the same problems. I was testing by dropping the arrow on the nock from about 6 inces off the ground and typically at least 1 blade would fall out. Not to mention that just lightly brushing them agains something, putting them into my quiver, and even putting them in my bow case caused blades to come loose.
On the XR2 sight it is amazing to me that with all the technology involved on a $200 sight you have to use a sharpie to mark yardages on the dial. I even contacted them and this is the response.
"We can send out some tapes at no charge. The sight is not linar and this is why we do not supply tapes. You may want to check out www.pinwheelsoftware.com. I hear they have cracked it and can make tapes for it. Please let me know if you want me to still send you some tapes. "
Amazing that after 2 years on the market they still have no idea how to do what other sight manufacturers have been doing all along. Seems crazy with all the technology available these days G% cant even figure out their own products and refer you to somebody else who might have a solution.
Has anybody else had the same problems and figured out a solution. At the very least I can say buy a Montana Black Gold sight and save yourself some disappointment
