I think what a lot of folks might be missing is that flight alone is not the best judge of a broadhead. Sharpness should also be a key consideration. On top of maybe not being real sharp, these things cut a small hole, 1 inch is advertised but it appears smaller than that. I think they weregenerous in their size claims. You're going to get some poor bloodtrails with these things. A tiny broadhead is No substitute for sharpness and a well tuned bow. They may be fine, but they are dull and small. Just realize it going in. It won't take a lot of fat to plug a hole.
I will agree that the Tricks are not as sharp as other heads but the ones I have used were sharp enough to shave the hair on my arm. Having said that, they do not shave like a Thunderhead and I wish theyhad a tad better edge fromthe factory.Not sure about the 1" diameter but I used the 1 1/8" diameter with excellent results. The bloodtrails I have seen with the Slick Trickswere excellent. They are not a miracle broadhead, as the deer I have shot with Thunderheadsalso had excellent bloodtrails. What I like about the heads are the toughness....I like the thick blades, the solid steel ferrule and the locking system used seemsvery secure.
