Default Ballistic Tips on Deer YES or NO

The title of the thread says it. The thread "The bad rap on Ballistic Tips" got me to wondering.

Do you personally use NOSLER Ballistic Tips (since people in the other post seem to get confused about who makes the Ballistic Tip), on deer sized animals?

If you answered YES, please feel free to go into details.

If you answered NO, please feel free to go into details why you don't.

If you use something else, this thread isn't for you! Just kidding, go ahead and post up what you use if you feel necessary, or can add something useful to this thread.

Thanks

I will not use them anymore for reasons stated before. I will not go into detail because my honesty/integrity was questioned before.
