Western MA,

Why do you say the Slick Tricks are pretty sick?

The Slick Trick has established one of the most impressive reps of ANY b-head in the industry in just a few short seasons. They truly are a top quality product!

I am however somewhat stunned that the junky low quality Crimson Talon would even be brought up on a Slick Trick thread.... WOW! [:-]:(

IL-Cornfed,

5 Star in his respected broadhead tests concluded with this about the new Crimson Talons: "
Overall the redesigned Crimson talon is a major improvement over the earlier ones and a darn good head as I now see it."

I thought they looked gimmicky at first and heard about breaking, but the new blades are supposed to be tough. I think I'm going to check em out.

The new ones are much different than the old ones.

EDIT: There was a time when slick tricks had their problems too with rattling and not being tight;).

The blade is now solid to the ferrule for its entire length and also have the bleeder as part of their make up. I have not shot mine yet but just from the looks of them they will be extremely solid and should not bend.

Midsouth... I mean sick in a good way! :) They are great broadheads. Leave huge gaping holes. Sick in what they do to game.
I have to agree w/ Lebeau & Bruce, IL.
My first set of 'Tricks weren't sharp and rattled quite a bit... but they took care of it for me. Great company & cust service. Yes, the old CT's may have been flimsy, but a good hit put them down extremely quickly... but you did only get one kill per broadhead. The new XTs are much more durable. I think you will probably still break blades if you hit bone though.

Slicks are awesome. I used them last year, massive trauma to animals and super tough head. Shot two deer and a rabbit with the same head. Also, they are one of the few companies where you can call them and the owner answers the phone. I recently ordered some heads for my brother for his birthday, and I wanted to kind of expedite the shipping, so I called, and the owner answered and got them out the same day. Tough to beat that service.

Great service.
I shot a bear & 2 deer one year w/ the same head. All 3 clean passthroughs. Huge holes like 10 guage slugs.
