Default Bought some Slick Tricks

bought some 100 gr. standard slick tricks this weekend, at 15 yards they are hitting same as my field points, I haven't had a chance to try them any further yet, they sure make a mess of my target quick, I hope they work at 30-40 as well as they do at 15

I have never shot them but was guiding and in a bear camp when a shooter's mechanicals failed...one of the other shooters lent him some Slicks...he was nailing a cig pack out to 40ys ...awsome for a four blade...twice further than the bear went he shot with them...

No looking for a bloodtrail either
I am impressed with them..

Started using them last year, so far shot an elk and a bear, less than 100 yards recovery between the two animals.

Supposedly according to the Cabelas Canada purchaser, Slick Trick is discontinuing the standard 100gr. in the next year and either replacing the design or simply carrying on without it and forcing people to try their other models. Im switching to the magnum 100gr. this year for that reason. Sad to see the standard 100gr. go if this is indeed true, i've taken most of my moose with them.

Cabelas guy is incorrect. I sent ST an email after reading your post. They replied immediately.

me too! Even though I've been using Ramcats last couple of years, (use to shoot ST Mags) I think I might stick a couple of Vipertricks in my quiver.

I have used the QAD's for the last 2 years. I picked them because I had great accuracy with them and they are well built. I have only shot one bear with them, at 40 yards. Awesome blood trail, bear only went about 30 yards.

I have started shooting the Slick Trick 100 standards this year, for the 1st time, and I really like them. I am still deciding between the two broadheads. Shooting longer distances, 70-80 yards, hopefully will reveal a winner. Both seem very accurate, Slick Tricks may have a slight edge, so far, in this department.


But what I like about the Slick Tricks are

1) Price- almost $20 cheaper then the QAD's for 3 pack.
2) smaller profile - fits better in my quiver
3) like how the blades interlock with each other...Like that design.

Both the QAD's and Slick Trick's seem the be winners for me and my bow!

I think the Slick Trick's are going to be in the quiver this year.

Slick trick are excellent broad heads. Super tough, sharp, and fly excellent. make sure to test them out past the furthest point you are comfy shooting too. good luck.
