They aren't "better", they just cut a bigger hole at 2" cut, with close to 2.5" entry.

There are several good choices out there, but I'll be using Slick Tricks of some flavor again this year.
Great flight, super sharp, cause devastating damage, and they are tough to boot. I'm not sure what else you could ask from a broadhead.
Gary has made improvements in them every year since I started using them, but I'd still use the 03 models over anything else. They are that good!

Slick Tricks for me also, and why is any thread about "what broadhead are/will/should/can" always has 40 to 50 posts???????? Guess we like talking about the business end of our arrow??

I've been using some version of a Rocky Mountain 3 blade since they came on the market in the 70s. Past 4-5 years the Ironhead.
Whitetails, Mule Deer, Elk, Buffalo, Caribou, Black Bears, Rams, Wild Hogs& more have fallen to them over the years. Always excellentresults, even when I've been a little sloppy on the shooting end.
There are many good heads out there today.
