Slick Tricks, they fly like field points, are super sharp, tough, and cut huge holes. Whatelse could you ask.

I have been shooting Slick Tricks for about 1 1/2 years and really like them. I am about to break down and get a pack of Rage 2" broadheads to check them out. I really like the idea of a larger blade that still fllys like a field point. Just am not getting rid of my slick tricks yet.

I've killed two deer with Sidewinders and neither went over 50 yards, more like 40... But, the entry holes were not very big, actually small. The ST Mag flies very well from my paper tuned bow and has as much total cut as the Sidewinder. I've never killed a deer with the ST Mag, but it would be what I would try between the two.

I switched to ST's this year... They shoot so good and shoot just about two inches off than my field points but I have not broadhead tuned my bow yet, just replaced my string.. I am so happy w/ the groups I've shot with them. Got mine from Mean V...

Slick tricks are probably the best 4 blade fixed head on the market all around. They are other that are comparable, but non that are better. They fly very true. I used them for years before I switched over to a mechanical. Taken everything from a Moose to a Coyote with them. Can't go wrong.

I still would used them for a heavier game animal, just that I have been focused on Whitetail the last few years.

Slick Trick is one bad arse fixed blade. Look up a video of a guy shooting a 55 gallon drum with several broad heads and slick trick had a large hole going in and almost out. Also the broad head looked very much like before it was shot into the barrel.
So did the G5 Striker and Wac-Em.

P.S.:

Interesting enough he shoots some mechanical's through a melon to show if blades fail to open.
Rage 3 blade, failed to open all blades "only 2 blades" [:'(]
