Which is why (IMO) "some" people shoot them (and mechanicals, also, in general).
Is this a good thing?[8D]
Slick Tricks are one of the few replaceable blade fixed heads that I've shot that fly with my field points out of a purposely out of tune bow.

Landon, Is 1" the largest cut that ST has? I have seen them, and agree that they are well put together and have serious bone busting ability, but I prefer something with at least 1 1/2" or 2" cut to maximize damage to lungs, heart, liver...etc.

Not having a tuned bow may not be a good thing perhaps, but having accurate broadheads has got to be a good thing, unless you are the quarry, IMHO!
THAT is why I say that "some" shoot mechanicals as a "band-aid" to mask tuning issues. Not all.....by ANY stretch.....but with a mech......KE is so much more important.
That's all.

RE: Slick trick , wow!
I don't really know that they fly better I was just being silly, but they do seem to fly very well. Yall need to quit taking some things too literally. I don't know what else to do. I mean im shooting well, i have paper tuned, though I know some of you don't think that's efficient, but the arrow flies well to me and it hits hard and drives deep into the target, what else is there??? IM not going to obsess about it, never have before and ain't going to now.

What I was eluding to formula......is the phenomenon where your arrow is not flying true.....but still hitting where you're looking. It could cause a loss of KE at the POI.....even though your arrow was flying exactly like your FP.

I'd be willing to bet you can shoot several different heads with good accuracy from your bow, indicating a good tune. BTW, good hunting this year!!

As far as what's left to do ......... just keep shooting and get ready to fill your freezer
