Well, Harlon dialed in my bow, so this was not my skill set to set up. I just shoot them!

We also as a group seem to be confident that a slick trick hits about the same as a field point. Well here is a good comparison. In case you have ever wondered, a 63 lb draw bow shooting a 425 grain arrow with a field point will not pierce a quarter taped to a block target at 25 yards. However, .... a 125 grain Slick trick will pierce right through it!

I wanna see what a 70-80 lb bow shooting a fast arrow does to a quarter, with a field point and a broad head now, even a cut on contact head! This was with a 270fps arrow.

It's a tiny target at 25 yards. I sliced through the edge of a couple quarters on the first couple tries. But the third one was the charm dead center!

Nice shooting Tex! I'm a Slick Trick believer. I used to shoot Rocky Mountain Premiers with similar results until they stopped making the ones I liked.

I really like slick tricks. Same POI as field tips and is a deers worst nightmare. I use them with my ten point crossbow and shot a doe and it was devastating.

Was a quartering away shot. Sliced through both side of rib bones, through the heart and unfortunately through her righ shoulder. Still went into the ground to the nock..

It looks like a brand new broad head . There is not a mark on it.

The only practice for me is with 100gr field tips.

I screw on the slicks just before I head into the woods. wink

I see several different style of tricks on their site. I'm switching from Rage and going back to a fixed blade head and am considering one of the slick tricks. Will be shot out of a HTR at 29" 70lbs. I am currently using Easton Bloodlines and with a 100gr field tip weigh 412. Whitetails are the target.

Advice on which trick?

No wrong choice with them

I really like the viper tricks. The best penetrating most consistently accurate head I've ever used.

I guess it's no more accurate then other slick tricks. But they do whistle thru everything I've hit.
