Default RE: Slick Tricks arrive (First impressions....)

C'mon all you outdoorsmen pick up that stone and sharpen them.
I've found that I lack the skills to put a fine edge on a blade and generally domore harm than good. Ihave mynice hunting knife professionally sharpened just for this reason. But that is beside the point in this case.

Slick Trick broadheads cost $22 for 3 heads and come out of the package dull. NAP Thunderheads cost $30 for six heads and are razor sharp. This tells me that it is more than possibletoeconomically sharpen broadhead blades to an acceptable level of sharpness at the factory since the Thuds cost over $2/head less than the Slick Tricks. The end user should not have to sharpen the blades on a broadhead, especially one that he has to pay a premium for. It's indicativeof a lack of quality control and attention to detail.I work hard for my money and Idon't have a ton of it, so I'mnot going to paymore for less.

Mike
