Slick trick standard vs. G5 Striker -

Topcat · 04-10-2011, 08:47 PM

Strikers fly somewhat better for me , but ST's have more cutting diameter. I'm leaning toward Strikers, but I'm wondering about 3 vs. 4 blades, and MIM vs. forged ferrules.

FWIW, I've tuned my bow extensively with both heads, and strikers do tune to a slightly smaller group.

Go and have a look at all my posts on the Slick Trick sub forum below.

I would not hesitate to put a Slick Trick Std on my hunting arrows.

What distance did you tune your bow and how big was the groups you shot?

If I do my bit the 125gr Slick Trick Std hits basically the same place out to 40 yards.

During tuning I will shoot a broad head and then a field point.

Have a look at the photos on my FB Page

4 vs 3 blade ...

4 blade cutting a hole like a 12ga slug will win me over every time.

I have not found any other ferrule that can stand up to the torture tests I have put Slick Trick Std through and still spin and shoots true...

Hope this answers your questions

I shoot b.h. vs. field pts, 20, 30, 40, 50 yds. I only shoot <40 yds when hunting. At 40 yds, I shoot about 3-4" w/ FP and Stikers, and 4-6 w/ ST's (Standards and Mags). I do like the ferrule design and 4 blades of the ST's. I'm not a fan at all of MIM for broadheads.
