If you keep them razor sharp, I don't see why not.

Yes, you can use them.
Make them as sharp as you can. There is a sharpening how-to for the Wensel head in the 'how-to' forum; it works for the G5 also.
There will be other opinions; and mine is - you should stick with what you know works...at first.
Shoot straight and the Montecs are as good on whitetails as any other head.

Stick with them. I have been using them since I found them in 2001. Turkey, bear, deer, caribou...

I dug a bloody one attached to a broken shaft out of my Dad's deer this year, and sharpened it back up for him. Sharpened pretty easily using the same technique I use for Woodsmans. I prefer the latter due to gentler slope of blades, but no reason the G5's shouldn't work too.

I tried some Montecs out of my set up a few years back. Couldnt get them to fly accurately and whistled like a freight train. Ended up giving them away. Try them out of your set up first and see how they fly. If you get good flight, give em a go. dino
