    I was looking at some because I need some fixed blades and I don't know which to get. Any opinions or comments will be helpful. Thanks :)

    I got the Slick Trick Standards this year and loved the way they flew right out of the package. Did a great job on the buck I shot as well, center punched a rib on the near side and a complete pass through.

    Just off of their website I really like the looks of the Magnum Tricks. I shoot G5 Montecs since I like the one piece construction.

    Ive never tried the vipers, but the standards, magnums, and grizz trick IIs are great. I like them all. I shoot my first moose with a bow the other day with a grizz trick II :tu:

    Ive your looking at other fixed blade BH not just slick tricks, id also rocommend muzzy. I think the mx-3s are still my favourite. Havent tried the trocars yet, but heard good things. Montecs by g5 are also good. There are too many great fixed blade BHs to name!

    I shoot the Viper tricks, I like the cut on contact tip, They flew perfect without any tuning. Havn't drawn blood yet.

    I shoot the Slick Trick Magnum 125's. I like them a lot. I also like the G5 Stikers a lot. I alternate between the two year to year it seems.

    I've shoot both.... I prefer Viper for Elk and the Slick Trick mag (deer) is pretty hard to beat as an all around tough as nails broadhead.

    I've shot the Vipers and the Griztricks I like them both but next time I buy I'll go with the Vipers again not as hardy but they made a nice mess out of the 3 deer I've shot this year

    I was thinking about using the viper for hogs because that's all I need a cut on contact tip for

    Here is the link from the Slick Trick website describing the difference between their different broadheads. I switched to Slick Tricks this year after bad experiences with Rage.

    I just found some similar broadheads called magnus stinger broadheads and they look perfect for hogs. anyone ever use them?

    They are nothing like a slick trick, lol. But the Stinger is a very well built head and will work just fine on hogs.

    I have shot the standards, magnums, and now razor tricks. The razors are by far my favorite.

    I thought magnus and slicks were made by the same company lol. guess I thought wrong. how do the razors fly because that was another one I was looking at. they look like they would fly pretty well
