Which Slick trick should I use
I want to try using Slick Tricks this year. Should I get the standard, the magnum or wait and get Grizz tricks? I'm shooting a 385 grain arrow at 248 fps which gives me 52ft lbs energy. If I turn the poundage up I can get 265 fps for 60ft lbs but at the lower poundage I can shoot longer without my shoulder hurting. I'm only hunting for whitetails and hogs, nothing bigger.

IIMHO I would stick with the Standards with only 52# KE. They are the same tough head and still cut an Awesome hole.
If you ever decided to try the Mags it is a simple task of just changing blades.
The Standard and Mag blades interchange on the same ferrule. It is like having 2 broadheads in one.

The GrizzTrick will undoubtedly be one of the most devastating heads on the market. 4 Blades do more cutting and the GrizzTrick has an 1 1/4" cut to boot.
I prefer my Broadheads to cut on impact and not have to open

Are you aware that slick tricks are literally made in some guys garage. There was no production company, not big time research. He designed his own broadhead, friends tried it..Everyone lliked it...
Now the slick trick is a very popular head !!
I liked them, but once I started shooting the Rage, there was no more fixed balde for me...

Just because it's not a large production facility doesn't mean that it's not as good. I've had conversations with the ownerGary on Archery Talk before I knew who he was. Let me tell you, this guy is knowledgeable when it comes to broadheads. As far as Big Time Research is concerned I would have thought the same thing until I went to work for a gun manufacturer as a machinist in the R&D department. It is one of the most highly respected manufacturers of Black rifles and accessories and they supply exclusively tothe military. I found the shortcuts they took just to save costs somewhat disturbing. There is a big diference between a product that is good enough and one that is quality made. Gary takes pride in his work annd I can't wait to try Slick Tricks first hand.

All properties needed in a Broadhead: Toughness, Flight, Sharpness, and Flat out tissue damage. IMO the Slick Tricks are one of if not the best on the market. I'd put them up against anything and although I sell several brands of quality heads I have no intentions of switching my personal choice in heads.
