Impressed..........

I shot a doe on Tuesday afternoon. It was the first deer that I have shot with the slick tricks. It didn't kill her any deader than any of the other broadheads but I am pretty impressed with their performance. She was quartering away and I hit her about the third rib from the back on this side and it came out through her shoulder on the opposite side. There was a huge entrance and exit hole. There was a great blood trail (didn't really need it cause she ran 40 yards and flopped) but it was nice to have. Also, not only did I blow though the off side should but the arrow buried up in the ground on the other side. After examining the broadhead it was in PERFECT condition. There wasn't even a nick on the blades and they were still plenty sharp. I replaced them anyway but there is no doubt they would do the job again. I just wanted to share my experience. I was pretty hesitant about making the switch but I am very pleased with the results. They shoot great and they are one little tank of a broadhead.

RE: Impressed..........

Were these the broadheads that survived after someone shot them into a garbage can?

RE: Impressed..........

By any chance do you have pics of the entrance/exit holes and blood trails?

I keep reading testimonials of how awesome they are, and not doubting the posters, just would love to see some pics to compare against what I'm getting from my current head...

Nice shot, by the way...
