RE: 3-blade vs. 4-blade broadheads
I do prefer 4 blade heads(Slick Tricks) andused to try to get the blades to make a "+" when the arrow was nocked, just because that is how I did it with my Larger profiled Phantoms.
BUT the ST head has taught me that IT prefers to make an "X" when the arrow is nocked instead of a "+".
I know it might sound crazy, but the majority of my Point Of Aim arrrows at 30 yards this preseason were wearing heads that made an X when nocked.
