What broadhead have you guys had success with using? I use slicktricks with my compound bow, but my dad drew a moose permit and is using a crossbow. He just got the new Horton Legend 175. I'm not sure you can tune a crossbow as precisely as a compound, so I am curious to which broadhead to use, short of buying a bunch of different ones just to tryout.

Slick Tricks are likely to work well. I like the G5 Striker. I used the magnums with great success.

I was also curious about the G5 Montecs. Anybody know anything about these broadheads shot out of a crossbow?

They work well too. Good solid head, what I've been told by users is that it is less likely to go off course in a deer compared to other broadheads. I've shot them but not whacked anything with them so I will say they fly very well.

They fly exactly like a field tip and get the job done.

SPIT-FIRE also flys like a field point. never had a problem with them either.

I've heard a lot of good things about the Slick Tricks...I shoot the Sonic Pro 100's from American Broadhead....field point flight...cut on contact.....haven't let me down yet

Have not fired these (G5) out of a crossbow, but have killed several deer with my compound and these heads. Rugged and fly the best of any broadhead out of MY setup. I went back to Thunderheads because of cost, but if I were going Elk hunting tomorrow...it'd be the G5.

Slicks worked great on a Buffalo awshucks killed couple yrs ago. So they should do the job on a moose. Montec G5 i shot a nice 8 pt with one last yr. Its a good BH but it will blow thru more than cut & sometimes blood trail is hard to find. If shot low in chest its great.
