Default Slick Tricks?

Have any of you guys tried these? I've heard they perform well on hogs (good exit wounds & nice blood trails). I'm interested in any negative experiences, if any.

The first time I tried them in the woods the deer dropped within sight after running about 40 yds. Looked like I used a slug .

The hype about these things shooting like fieldpoints is true. I decided to try some this season, and so I tested them yesterday. I made 0 adjustments to my bow. They weredeadon with my field points.

I am using them for the first time this year. I look forward to seeing them in action.

I must say that I NEVER beleived the "feild point flight" b.s. untill I bought a pack of em. They fly just like my feild tips! I got em to use this year so I am excited to see how they perform.

I think their flight is totally overrated and do not fly like a fieldpoint. I wish they did because they are well made but they don't. I have been shooting a lot this year and know where my field points are hitting so screwed a few STs on, spin tested the arrows and shot them a couple days ago. Arrow 1 was always high / right, 2 was always left, and arrow 3 right on.

I took arrows 1 and 2, ran then through a G5ASD and re-tested with the same results. Threw on a Jak-Hammer on arrows 1 and 2 and hit my 1" orange dots at 41 yards withconsecutive shots. The STs were off by up to 8" at that range.

I got 2 deer with STs last year but I am switching to something less fickle. I still may have one or two STs in my quiver this year (if I can get them to fly decent) but I am sick of having to number all of my arrowsand understand exactly where they are hitting.
