Just wondering if anyone else is using these besides me.Ive reads lots of threads on broadheads and nobody ever mentions them.Ive had good luck with them,good penetration and they fly just like my fieldpoints.

They fly great but tend to loose blades if you hit something real hard. In my opinion there are many other heads that fly as well and hold up better. www.broadheadtests.com

Killed 15 or so with them. Awesome penetration.....I mean AWESOME. Pinned one does shoulders together. She dropped in her tracks. Alsointentionally spine a doe straight under stand arrow passed thru the spine and out the brisket and into the ground with a 60# bow. Only weakness is sometimes weak bloodtrails with 7/8" cut.

Ive killed 8 so far with them and your right about about the penetration, simply amazing.I know what you mean about the blood trails but every deer but 1 that ive taken with them has dropped within sight.I suppose if i ever switch ill try slicktricks but till they let me down ill stick with them.Thanks for the reply, its nice to see someone else is using them besides me.

One of the bowhunters in my circle used them for the past couple of years, and had similar comments. Great penetration, but poor blood trail.But when all critters shot go down within sight of the hunter, a bloodtrail is not really critical. This year, however, he went to the G5 Montec. Never really did go into detail as to why.
