Thanks for the support, but I would disagree with broadhead prices. Everybody wants to jump on the bandwagon of whatever comes out this year will be the latest and greatest, surpassing all other before it, regardless of the price. The truth is there are still really good, well proven heads onn the market like standard ole Muzzy's that go for about $25 per six pack. I like the way Slick Tricks are built, too. Actually I pay more attention to how blades are retained within the ferrule, and although I don't keep up with every new model that comes out I still feel that three heads stand out to me in the blade retention department. Those being SlickTrick, Muzzy, and InnerLoc.

I don't keep up with mechanicals simply because I can't shoot enough draw weight to be able to use them. Therefore I have no interest in them. Besides, I have NEVER had a broadhead that I could not install properly on an arrow, tune the setup, and have that and field tipped arrows hit the same POI within normal hunting distances. And I've had a few broadheads in the last 35+ years.

Regardless of the broadhead being used, if there is one that is so much better than all others it is still not going to do it's job efficiently unless the arrow is flying true, so it's all in the tuning and shot placement.
