Looking forward to trickin' some more deer starting next Saturday with the Slick Trick's. Killed two last fall with terrific results. Only took a picture of one..............
a friend went from slick tricks to the grizz tricks and said they were very loud when flying through the air with his setup. do they shoot quiet for you?

Wow, we've come far enough that a replaceable blade broadhead is now a fixed head? Fixed are Zwickey, Snuffer and the like. Guess I'm getting older.
BTW one should ALWAYS shoot your broadheads and listen to them in flight downrange... some vented models whistle.... and you should do this regardless of what Taylor claims.... if its vented it could cause issues. Heck anyone could cause issues so thats why you want to tune them and then listen.

Talk about a coincident, while at the pro shop today a guy walked in just about closing time and asked the dealer if he had any Slick Trick 100 gr heads. I asked him how he liked them and he told me he shot a good size deer yesterday right under his stand and the only shot he had was straight down on a slight angel so he put it between the shoulder blades and let fly. Said the deer almost went down instantly and only made it a yard or two before collapsing and died rate there. When he checked it out the ST busted it's back bone and angled into the shoulder and blew through it as well. On its way through it severed the lung as well and bleed out immediately. Said if you really want a broad head that doesn't come apart and punchs through bone then go with the Slick Trick. Sounds good to me.
At 37 yards here in TX she'd have been in a different time zone by the time the arrow got to her.
Hey now, not necessarily, ha. I got this one right at 35 paces with a 100gr Slick Trick just 2 weeks ago. You're looking at the entry wound, the arrow went out through the shoulder on the opposite side and stuck in the ground. The doe only went about 20 yds or so.

I got a couple of those kind under my belt too, but realized at some point that was pure luck and not much more that they didn't move or moved the right amount. Once I hit the plus 100 mark with my bow I'd learned a lot..... personally I don't need the kills that bad anymore to take the risk.
Nice doe though!!! Should be great eating! Nice shot location too! Did it catch the top of the heart? The way that front leg is cocked its hard to tell exact height, looks about 3-4 inches higher than I'd attempt but I've got plenty right in that area and it works, they just can't duck it more than that.
Congrats! Jeff

mine shoot very quiet. i took a nice sized doe on halloween afternoon in the rain.
They don't whistle for me either. I shoot both them and NAP Nitrons and have been happy with both. The only whistling they have done is through rib cages. Maybe it is a question of how well the person's bow and arrow flight are tuned.
