G5 Deadmeat V2 Broadhead — Steel Tough, Devastating, Easy to Use
The G5 Deadmeat V2 is the total package. A 1-1/2 inch cutting diameter that opens up devastating wound channels. 100% Grade A steel construction that's 320% stronger than competitors' aluminum heads. A Snaplock Blade Retention System that makes blade changes a five-second job. Rear deployment for better penetration and higher blood loss. And a BMP practice tip included so you're not blowing up your target to tune and practice. If you want a mechanical broadhead that's built tough, flies true, and does serious work on impact, the Deadmeat V2 is the one.
Key Features
1-1/2 Inch Cutting Diameter
The Deadmeat V2 opens a 1.5-inch wound channel on impact — a meaningful cut diameter that creates more blood loss and a wider, easier-to-follow blood trail. Bigger cut means more tissue damage, more hemorrhaging, and faster recoveries. That's the whole point.
100% Grade A Steel — 320% Stronger Than Aluminum
The Deadmeat V2 is machined entirely from 100% Grade A steel — the same material as the original Deadmeat, refined for the V2. Steel doesn't flex, doesn't shatter, and doesn't fold on impact the way aluminum can. G5 puts the number at 320% stronger than competing aluminum construction. When you're driving a broadhead through ribs, shoulder blade, or tough hide, that strength difference matters.
Snaplock Blade Retention System — Simple and Secure
Snap in the blades and you're good to go. The Snaplock system is genuinely simple — no fumbling with O-rings, no rubber bands, no complicated alignment. Snap the blades in, confirm they're locked, and you're hunting. The retention is secure enough that you don't have to worry about blade pre-deployment on contact with brush or tight quivers.
Rear Deployment — Better Penetration, Higher Blood Loss
The Deadmeat V2 is a rear-deploying mechanical broadhead. The blades stay closed until the head passes through entry, then deploy from the rear — allowing the front of the head to focus on penetration before the blades open. The result is deeper penetration than many front-deploying mechanicals and a wound channel that opens progressively for maximum blood loss.
Reusable — Replaceable Blades
The Deadmeat V2 is built to be used more than once. Replacement blades install easily and are available separately (G5 Deadmeat V2 Replacement Blade Kit). If you punch through an animal and your blades are intact, a quick blade swap and you're back in the field. If you're hunting multiple days or multiple animals in a season, that reusability adds up fast.
BMP Practice Tip Included
A Ballistic Match Point (BMP) practice tip is included with every pack of Deadmeat V2 broadheads. The BMP is aerodynamically designed to match the wind drag and resistance of the broadhead — meaning your field point tune carries over to your broadhead without blowing up targets or wasting hunting heads on practice. Tune with BMP, hunt with Deadmeat. No surprises at the moment of truth.
No Blade Pre-Deployment
The Snaplock system and rear-deployment design work together to eliminate blade pre-deployment — your blades stay closed until impact, not when a branch touches them or when they contact the side of a quiver. What you sight in is what you get at the moment of the shot.
Who It's Built For
The G5 Deadmeat V2 is for the bowhunter who wants a mechanical broadhead that combines a wide cut diameter, real steel toughness, and dead-simple blade management. If you've been frustrated by blades that pre-deploy, by aluminum heads that fold on heavy bones, or by mechanicals that require complicated setup — the Deadmeat V2 is the answer. Available in 100 grain and 125 grain. The BMP practice tip is included in both weights.

Why Extreme Outfitters Recommends It
The Deadmeat V2 is one of those broadheads that does exactly what it promises. The Snaplock system is genuinely the simplest blade management we've seen on a mechanical — snap in and go, no extra steps. The all-steel construction gives you real confidence on shots through heavy bone. And the included BMP practice tip means you can tune and practice without wasting hunting heads. If you want a mechanical that's built tough, flies clean, and cuts hard on impact, the Deadmeat V2 belongs in your quiver. Questions about weight selection for your arrow setup?

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between 100 grain and 125 grain?
The 100 grain and 125 grain Deadmeat V2 are the same broadhead in different weights. The weight you choose should be matched to your arrow spine, bow setup, and personal tuning preference. Heavier broadheads (125gr) add more front-of-center weight to your arrow, which can improve flight stability and penetration — particularly useful with heavier arrow builds. If you're unsure which weight is right for your setup, give us a call and we'll help you figure it out.
How does the Snaplock Blade Retention System work?
The Snaplock system uses a mechanical locking mechanism to secure the blades in place. Snap the blades into the head until they lock — no O-rings, no rubber bands, no complicated alignment required. The blades stay locked through brush contact and quiver carry, and deploy reliably on impact.
Are replacement blades available for the Deadmeat V2?
Yes. G5 Deadmeat V2 Replacement Blade Kits are available separately. Blade replacement is straightforward — install the new blades using the Snaplock system and you're ready to hunt again.
What is the BMP practice tip?
The BMP (Ballistic Match Point) is a practice tip aerodynamically designed to match the wind drag and resistance of the Deadmeat V2 broadhead. It allows you to practice and tune with a tip that flies like your hunting head — without cutting up targets or wasting broadheads on practice shots.
Is there a crossbow version of the Deadmeat V2?
Yes. The Deadmeat V2 is available in both Standard (compound bow) and Crossbow versions. This listing is the Standard version. Contact us if you need the Crossbow variant.
