You know they are as good as gold! The next best thing to slick tricks is land. And god stopped making land along time ago!!

Just go buy a pack, try 'em, you'll like them, it's pretty much GUARANTEED!!! I punched the same BH through 3 deer, 2 coyotes and a blue grouse (lost it on that grouse as well), and if I hadn't lost it, I'd still have been shooting it this past season. I have one on an arrow right now that has been through 2 deer and a coyote, and will likely go through a few more animal this season. And all that was without any blade changes. The blades are SHARP, and they re-sharpen pretty easily with a small sharpener, like this ( http://www.amazon.com/Lansky%C2%AE-M.../dp/B0001WP336 )
or this ( http://www.rei.com/product/780741?cm...5-001b2166bec9 ).

That second little sharpener is the one I use and it's a GREAT little sharpener for BH's!!!! :happy0001:

Ok, so if you shoot the rage this year, see how you like em. You might want to stick with the rages, who knows?

I shoot Slick Tricks and will never move to another broadhead. They are the sharpest broadheads I have ever used, and tough as nails. Never shot the rages but I'm not really a fan of mechanicals.

Whitetailaddict13 09-04-2010 01:03 PM

"will never shoot another broadhead,sharpest broadhad, tough as nails"..its these kind of things that make me wanna try one! you know what i mean? if i decide i like them i can easily switch heads before i shoot em up(the rages) and buy tricks.

Look, it's almost the most critical thing you have when you go to the woods. Buy something that shoots great and kills. You can't judge any broadhead based on one or two. Really, find what floats your boat. Sure it might take some money and time but the end results demands your best effort. Heck, I pay $50 for a box of golf balls and then loose them in the pond or woods.LOL There are a ton of great broadheads around. I don't use the slick tricks... but if I was thinking about them I'd buy a pack and see if my thinking was right. You don't want someones left overs or discards. Start fresh and finish strong.

A 3 pack of ST's cost 25 bucks. VERY different than Rage. Well worth the money. If you buy the 100 grain magnums, shoot one and see what you think. If you don't like them, I will buy all three off you for 20 bucks.

But you see... this is disinformation. It depends on what arrow and what length and poundage he's shooting to select the correct weight head. Has the archery industry gotten totally away from basic principles? PLUS, he's shooting a recurve, more than likely fingers... that changes it too. This stuff is not made up. It's taken us 60 years to refine it and people tend to ignore it and they wonder what when wrong when it breaks.

Whitetailaddict13 09-04-2010 02:04 PM

were did you get that i shoot a recurve? my sig says mathews lx

Ben / PA 09-04-2010 02:08 PM

Sorry dmil, you are right to a point, I assumed he built his arrow to a 100 grain head.

Edit: still wondering how "if you buy 100 grain Magnums" is disinformation?

That is quite literally a killer deal. If I didn't have 10 of those heads ready to rock, I'd buy another 3 of them. Hell, I still might.

why do you guys need so many if they are so indestructable

Because some of us are nut cases. I'm one. I like to match every arrow to it's OWN broadhead. I swap back and forth and sometime just trash an arrow or a broadhead. Some of us seek perfection in arrow flight. "ALMOST PERFECT" is not what we seek. I used to shoot Thunderheads for years. When I did I had 24 heads. Now I shoot Shuttle T's. I have a dozen. Each has it's own arrow. When and if I shoot it at a deer it goes through the whole process all over. Shooting, turning, swapping or whatever. I can grab any arrow from the quiver or the dozen or so replacements and feel confident... it's a NUMBER 1.

Whitetailaddict13 09-04-2010 05:06 PM

lol i see. i guess those "some of you" must be real masters off the game, eh?

Nope, not Masters.... Anal might be a better choice of words. BUT, if we shoot, we know it isn't the arrow we have to worry about. I usually buy arrows 2 dozen at a time. I enjoy playing and matching and grading them. The worst ones become practice arrows. The best get a broadhead(finally) and are set aside with new replacement blades in a quiver or an arrow box.

Whitetailaddict13 09-04-2010 05:44 PM

i cant afford to buy arrows at that rate. wish i could! i guess ill just have to buy a pack of slick tricks. there on sale anyway somewhere for like 21 bucks

davidmil 09-04-2010 06:17 PM

I hope you understand. Slick Tricks are NOT my broadhead. They may be fine, but I use something else. Doesn't matter what it is. The process should be the same. Some do shorten the process.

If you buy the slick tricks, keep in mind that the std. 1" heads will penetrate better while the magnums will cut a bigger hole. I prefer the std heads. A 1" 4 blade still cuts a lot of tissue and they penetrate a great deal better than the magnums.

Whitetailaddict13 09-05-2010 06:57 AM

well im getting a preview of the standard slicktrick 100. soo if i like it those'll be the ones i purchase

Post up your DL and DW, I can probably get you into a dozen GOOD arrows under $75.

I shoot the ST 100gr. standards. They have done very well for me the last 3 years and I will be shooting them until I find something better which may be never! Just go ahead and get a pack of them. You will not regret it. Like was stated earlier, if you don't like them, you will have no problem getting rid of them!!
