Default RE: slick tricks!!! to buy or not to buy?

ORIGINAL: 5 shot

Here is the link your trying to find.

As for slick tricks, They are sharp, and fly well. They cut a big hole in what they hit, and tune easily. If they break, they will break at the ferule where the insert screws in. If a muzzy breaks it will break or bend right where the steel tip screw onto the ferule, If a snyper breaks it will do so near the tip, if a rocket head breaks it will useually be the blades falling out etc. I am not bashing any of the other heads or Bluefeathers comments, just stating that all heads can and will break, and useually in the same place. No head is perfect and you will have to decide if the features it offers are what your looking. I have used the slick trick 125's on game with excellent results and no damage. Bluefeather did not have such good results. You will have to weigh the info and decide. Personally I wouldn't have any problems using them again.
I agree with 5 shot. There are pro's and con's to all broadheads. I've had other broadheads break on me as well. It mainly comes down to personal preference ane what works well with your set up. Give me a descent broadhead that's sharp and with a well placed shot, we're in business. I still have Slick Trick Broahheads and plan on using them because they are a descent broadhead, they are definitly sharp...and the well placed shot is on me.
