    Would like to try Slick Trick broadheads since I hear great reviews on them. Just wondering if the small vanes such as Fusions are sufficient to steer them ?? For my set up with field points, the Fusions were far better than Blazers and were better to track in flight. My set up consists of a Easton Axis 340, 435 grs @ 296 Fps.

    Slicks work fine with Blazers, I don't see why they wouldn't work just as well with Fusion vanes. I was also thinking about switching to the Fusion vanes after the season is over.

    I've only ever used quickfletch quickspins....would see no reason why Fusions wouldn't work.

    I've shot shot both blazers, and now 2.1 Fusions with ST's for quite a few seasons. Plenty of dead things tell me they work quite well :D

    2" Blazers with right helical. ST.'s and ramcats fly great with them.

    I have shot blazers, fusions, predators and even FOBs the tricks fly fine with them all. I only had an issue with planing with the old style Grizz-Tricks other than that no issues.

    I find they shoot best out of 2.5" Flexfletch out of my set up
    I shoot a 3 degree right helical on CX Piledrivers with a total finished weight of 468grns
    they fly great out to 90yards
