Anyone have experiences with G5 megameats that they can share? Would love to hear them!
With your Omen you will get passthroughs with the Mega. We have been using both V2 and Mega and both are passing through. Really not seeing much difference in that department.With my set up. 60 lbs at 29” and 430 grain arrow I went with the Deadmeat V2.
I like the Mega, but don’t think I have the horsepower to get two holes.
Sounds like they've preformed well for you. Good luck.I’ve shot the Mega Meats the last 2 seasons and I’m moving away from them for next yr. I’m shooting 70#’s, 27.5 DL, 405gr arrow wt (125gr heads) @ 284fps.
Shot a big OH 5 1/2 yr old last season at 7 yds (!!) just left of spine as he was under me. Arrow blasted him, blades caught the heart and he died w/in 20yds..... but arrow never came out the bottom of the buck.
Just Friday, I shoot a 3 1/2 yr old OH 10pt buck at 22yds broadside. No shoulder, only ribs. Perfect triangle entry wound, ~14” of penetration. He ran ~60yds and flopped leaving good blood from the entry....again, no exit.
Lots of variables in play, but I’m done with these and going back to fixed blades. I’m sure bigger men with longer draws, heavier arrows do fine. But I ain’t growing up anytime soon[emoji3]

Fake news. You can't kill hogs with mechanicals and arrows under 500 grains.I tried them out recently.
125 grain megameat
My setup is mathews v3x 33 29"dl 70#
Arrow is easton sonic 250 spine 75gr brass insert and 125gr head. TAW is 495gr.
Shot a 110-115# hog and had the best bloodtrail I've ever had from a hog and she only made it 60 yards. Complete pass through and arrow was lying 7 yards past her. Only 1 blade was bent and don't know if it's from rocks after pass through or from a rib. Either way I'm a believer in them for my new mech for deer and hogs in similar size or smaller. I replaced the blades and it's back in the quiver ready for rd 2. I picked up more replacement blades and 2 more packs of megameats yesterday so I'm set for a while.![]()
