Aftershock.

[GVDocHoliday]

Oooh wow...is that what I think it is? So that leading edge and the blade itself is one solid piece?

[kingfishcam]

OK, do they come in 100gr, where can we get them, and when will they be available?

[Ninja]

Avalable 2007....but I will be shooting them this year!!!

Me too....I'm still waiting for mine though. :help:

[D_Hunter]

Oh come on now.....LOL

They most likely will come in a package of 3---I only need 1 !! :lol:

[kingfishcam]

I don't even need a freebie here. I would pay for them, and provide reports. Is this possible?

Not yet....

[kingfishcam]

That stinks...
Just comfortable shooting Slick's, but now they are harder to find than a 12 point.

[deputy]

trial run report has them flying as well as the hypershocks so far. good stuff in my book

[Swamp Ghost]

That is one ugly broadhead :D

[waterboy_fishing]

What are we looking at? I don't see a link or photo but you have peaked my interest.

[Swamp Monster]

Deputy,
Are they going to offer them in a lighter weight, say 75, 80, or 85 grains?
I want one right now.....I'll take a 100 grainer too, ain't picky! I like the aftershocks...have the 80 grain hypershock, but I am interested in a fixed blade for use thru shoot thru netting.

I'll trade you a supply of Tater Tots and Ranch Dressing (even include a sleave of foam 5 compartment trays!) for a couple samples!!! ;)

[deputy]

Man monster tha tis good deal, can we melt some cheese on top of those first?

not sure on future weights........... sorry only preproduction are out out now, wont be till jan or so for them

I may very well end up turning in my API spitfires!!! Looks like a well designed head. I'll end up getting a pack and seeing how well they shoot. I've been using the Spitfires for the last few years due to shooting from the ground, now I've found a stand(climber) that I can actually be comfortable in so I took to the trees last year again. I don't like the idea of using mechanicals at such an angle.

[Joe Archer]

They look very nice. What kind of cutting diameter and weights do they come in and how much will they cost? I am pretty old school, and rely more on shot selection and accuracy than I do on new broad heads. Heck, I could probably go back to the 140 grain Wasp 4-blades I used in the 80's and still kill everything I shot at. What do the manufacturers feel I can gain if I spend the $ on their new broadhead?

i'm curious as to why.. the cut on contact tip is a step in the right direction (the reasoning for chisel points is beyond me), but the abrupt increase in cutting angle coupled with 4 blades is not a preferred design.

it does appear as though the blades are of sufficient thickness to remain durable for multiple uses and handle re-sharpening (if the drawing is to scale). that's definitely a plus.

[deputy]

the head may be shot as 2 or 4 blade and the blades are easy to replace or to resharpen,

the cut on contact coupled with the bone splitting type head right behind it help with penetration and bone work.... it works very well even on lower poundage bows i have seen some video of large hogs being blasted with this head as well as an audad(sp)

in my set up this head flew to the same impact point as my 100 grain hypershocks, 100 grain field points and my muzzys 100 grain 4 blades and 3 blade as well! its hows some great strength and durablity of the blades

I like my Slick Tricks . I still haven't seen anything that would make me want to change .......yet
