Thanks for your input. Your dealer that I purchased a pack from spoke very highly of Slick Trick heads as well. Honestly, I bought them to test in my new bow on your dealer' s glowing recommendation. He told me all of his customers who use them get perfect arrow flight and great blood trails as you have said. He even has some shooting them with crossbows at 330 fps. Since I just purchased a new bow that' s above 300 fps and I don' t know how my Thunderheads will shoot at that speed (and I hate mechanicals), I decided to try the Slick Tricks. Actually, before I saw the Slick Tricks, I actually had penciled out a similar design (I am an engineer), but it was a three-blade design with a little more tip in front of the blade. Let me assure you that one or two negative opinions will not necessarily sway me one way or the other. I know that we bowhunters are a peculiar bunch because we love the sport and the responsibility it requires to our quarry.

Please don' t feel bad about your opinion, especially in the light of how you presented it, as openly and honestly as you could. You could have said ' Slick Tricks are the worst heads made' without adding honest discussion, pictures and facts. You didn' t and that I respect. We bowhunters want to be sure of our equipment, and I can understand your loss of confidence in the light of what you presented. Personally, I hate mechanicals all because of one live deer test and one very bad experience, even though I know many folks swear by the one I used. I won' t name the head, but suffice it to say I had to use a Thunderhead 100 to complete the job. It' s confidence in our equipment that is most important!! We work too hard to get that shot of a lifetime ruined with a bad broadhead. I understand!!!
