Thanks,

For me, the Slick Tricks. I have used them with very good success. They are extremely durable and fly just like my field points. I use the 125 gr. magnums, but have shot the standards as well, just wanted the extra 1/8" of cut. Bibbulls is a big supporter of Slick Tricks, so hopefully he chimes in on here as well. MeanV2 is always a good resource for info on them.

There was a similar thread recently and I wrote:

In the passed couple years I've been trying different BHs. Started with Muzzy, went to Montecs, back to Muzzy, thought about expandables, then finally settled on Slick Tricks. And by settled, I don't mean settling.

Slick Trick is a quality BH. One look at the machining and you can justtell. Testimonial on this BH is endless. Short of a one piece design such as the Montec, Slick Trick's flight quality is near unmatched by any other fixed BH. Additionally, 4 blades will create a bigger hole even if it's the same cutting diameter as a 3 blade, thus better blood trail, thus faster expiring deer.

One thing I didn't like about Muzzy was that the tip is made of aluminum. Aluminum cans are made of what else but aluminum right? What I didn't like about the Montec was the fact that if you have to resharpen the blades, you not only have to buy a sharpening stone, butI don't think you could ever get the blades as sharp as the factory can get a replaceable razor blade such as the Slick Trick.

ST's all the way. I found that Muzzy's quality has decrease slightly over the years, and occasionally you may get a pack that one of the heads just won't spin true regardless of what you do and you find it is because it's not perfectly straight. I HONESTLY believe I shoot my ST's better than my FP's a lot of the time.

I used and killed a Bull with the Muzzy MX 4's. I wasn't impressed how they flew. I switched to ST two years ago and I haven't looked back since! Just get the ST's you won't be dissapointed!

I have shot Muzzy for years and had great succes, but this year Im going with the Slick Tricks, they fly just like a fp and seem to be like darts. I do have a bit of play in the blades for some reason..

I would go w/ the STs... i have had better luck w/ better & bigger holes & bloodtrails with the ST over the Muzzy.

Just my experience.
