New BH for crossbow hunters

1 1/8" XBOW TRICK
"THE PERFECT CROSSBOW HEAD FOR ALL CROSSBOWS"
New for 2010, SLICK TRICK introduces the 175gr XBOW TRICK, a dedicated head for crossbows, with the same .035" LUTZ Solingen, Germany blades, unbeatable ALCATRAZ BLACELOCK, and SUPERSTEEL ferrule of its other top performing heads. The 1--gr Magnum TRICK has long been a favorite with crossbows for its flight, strength, penetration and "slug holes", and the XBOW TRICK uses the same Magnum blades in a 100% steel 175 grain head. Instead of those using the 100 Mag along with a brass insert to bump the weight up to 175 grains for the best bolt flight and penetration, now one only needs to use the 175 grain XBOW TRICK to get the deadliest performance possible for great holes, bloodtrails and quick kills. Dealers need only stock XBOW TRICKs to make all their crossbow hunters happy.

I plan on getting some and testing them out.

I'll have to give them a try also. See how they compare with my old brand.

What are you going to try them on, so you can see if they are better? Or did you mean to try them in season, real time?

You know me better than to think I'd hunt out of season. Can't afford to get caught this close to retirement. I'd like to see how they work but next fall is soon enough.

Thats not what I meant, I was thinking along the lines of a pumkin or something that you would shoot before the season, I wanted to know what you were going to do so I could try that method as well. I know you wouldn't hunt out of season, same as the rest of us, unless you were stranded and needed to.

Actually a pumpkin would make a great target, and then the deer can eat it after. I would like to test out these new broad heads to see the size of hole they make. Maybe watermallon.

I wonder which one is closer to the side of a deer for toughness? the good news would be that if pumpkins are it, they should be two weeks early like all the rest of the veggie and fruit crops.

Now if I can just find a shop that has these new BH's in stock. BP do not have them.

175 grains seems very heavy. It would be interesting to see some tests on how they work

Some Excal forum guys have tried them and said they fly okay. However , I may stick with the 125 grn. for this deer season.

I'm with you Tracer, for deer 125 grain is plenty.
