yes they do very good. i think the 100 gr is what most use on slick tricks.
go over to crossbow topic, i lot of those guys use SLICK TRICKS on their crossbows.

Try the Gator from Bass Pro. They open every time and do not have a O-ring at all. Plus, they are $20 for 3 right now.

I used the spitfires for years and quit last year, thought I would try something new.

That is your problem most likely. How heavy is your arrow? I have been using the 2 blade rages and blowing big holes through deer, but I am shooting a 400 grain arrow at 295 fps. No problem in quartering away shots either they passthru.

i like arrow around 400/420 grs for expanding point or even a fix point.
