Jeff,

I can't make the comparison because the slick trick is the first 4 blade head that I have ever shot. But, I can answer part of the question. I have shot about every kind of 3 blade head on the market as well as many of the mechanicals through whitetails and the slick tricks do a TON of damage. They are as impressive as the biggermechanicals in terms of tissue damage IMO. Plus they fly extremely well for the majority of shooters and tend to shoot with field points. The blades lock in nice and tight and they are super tough. They are worth picking up a pack and trying. Only you can decide if they are right for you or not but I have been impressed with them. I think you would to but if not you wouldn't be out a lot of $$$ to know for sure. But if you already have a broadhead that shoots well for you and that you are confident in then I would stick with it. But they are a solid, accurate, and deadly broadhead.
