Thoughts on the 2023 titanium xmag

Contemplating using them on my upcoming bull
elk hunt.

Finally got my exomax zero'd . Had a little stretch in my new flemish string but tightened it up.

Wish they made a practice head, guess I'll ask Scott

The new 150 gr XMAG STEEL , Ti 100 and 125 have improved 440 SS rear blades .040 thick which reduces bending .

Scott at SWAT heads gave us pre production ti heads to field evaluate in 21, 22 and 23 while spring bear hunting in Ontario.

We posted a bunch of photos after pass throughs shows no blades broken or bent.

The XMAG is a big cut mechanical and I suggest not skimping on overall arrow weight. The heavier the better and avoid a quartering to shot in the shoulder.

I have taken 13 animals using the XMAG and not one game animal went over 45 yards after a double lung.

Use a regular field point to practice because the POI is very close at 50 y.

Or, soak a SWAT in accetone and JB WELD. The ti doesn't like glue , so, I suggest a light wire wrap on top of JB WELD.

It's worth mentioning for larger ungulates, the front blades can be swept back or set to free float in both the Ti and the MOAB.
