Default Slick Tricks on Moose

Has anyone ever tried slick tricks on Moose? I realize 90% of it is shot placement, but I was wondering how they performed on such a large animal. I was just drawn for a moose permit and am planning on trying out the Slick Tricks. Surprisingly, my 2 year old bought me a package of tem for Father's Day (she always seems to know just what I need). I have been using Shockwave mechanicals. They performed gret on a 20 lb. Tom Turkey last month, but I wanted to go to a fixed blade for the moose.

Bakerwonderhound !

I'm sure the slick trick's will do the job just fine ,we've taken 4 moose in 5 season's and all of them were taken with Mechanical's .I myself prefer to use a solid head or a fixed head .There's been lot's of debate over the issue mechanical verses fixed heads for big game ,but I now know that mechanical's of today's quality will do the job just fine .

I believe from what I've seen on the Slick trick's is that they're probably amongst the best in the mechanical line up.

Nubo, the slick trick is not a mechanical. It is a fixed, four blade head with a 1-1/8th inch cut.


While I don't hunt moose (yet) I would most certainly be useing a slick trick tipped arrow if I did. IMHO I don't think there is a better head made today.

You would be well equipped with the slick trick.

Thanks for the input. I am going to get a chance to try them out on Caribou in September. That should be good test case for the moose in October.

The slick trick heads are awesome--I've killed a moose at 48 yards, it dropped 80 yards from my stand, using a 55 # DW bow with 3555 GT XT Huntershafts & 4" Quik Spin vanes.
Them fixed blades fly like a fieldpoint and leave a great blood trail--it's all you need.

The slick tricks would work fine but when I go on a moose hunt I will most likly be using Montec G5s.
