I have always been one of those people who did not trust mechanical broadheads.Did not understand why you needed to shoot a mechanical, with todays bows,dropaways, etc,just about anybody should be able to get a good group with a quality fixedblade,but after lots of research,thinking on the design/engineering of the piston point hoping to not loose penetration.I decided to try it myself soley for the extra cut. I killed a approx 175lb.8pt. and a mature doe, both with outstanding results ,pass thru's with big holes but they were perfect dbl lung shots just rib bone.I am curious from other hunters what there results was from last season.I liked thetip and the blades stay closed. I amthinking about slick tricks but do not see any reason to change I guess that is just the fixed blade dna in me..

Bowhunting World or Bowhunter did independent testing on a bunch of mechincals last month, including the piston point. Did not fare very well when shot through concrete and plywood. Great concept, but the dureability of the blades was questioned. In my personal experience, if you hit the animal in the vitals and no solid bone contact is made, it is a good head. I would stay away from it though for the chance that you make solid bone contact.
