I think if I was to ever change broadheads ( which will most likely never happen ) :chuckle: I would take SLICK TRICKS over muzzy any day ...Just from what I hear those Slick tricks may just become something ... :tup:

Slick trick g5strikers and the cabelas cooperheads all have blades made by the same place which makes surgical blades so they know what they are doing. :tup:

I ran a test a few years back and the shuttle t's where the toughest on bone . I love the way they fly and would recommend them any day.

I vote for shuttle t's but never shot muzzy. I've seen what the shuttle's do to an elk though, damage.

   Just picked up the slick trick 125 grain and the green nocturnal lighted nocks. The slick tricks fly as straight as my field points at 50 yards. Pretty happy with their flight. Hopefully in August I will get to try them on a bear.

Both are good broadheads...

I shoot Shuttle-T's.   They really lace open a wound channel and they fly very well.

Shuttle Ts.  My only complaint is they aren't the most durable head.  I shot my bull last year with one and it went through back of shoulder bone on way in and centered a rib on the way out.  The ferule of the broadhead bent and thus it was not reusable.

The good news is that the bull only made 50 yards before tipping over.  :tup:

My view on them is that all that go through an animal will get retired.

ANY broadhead can bend going through that much bone, the fact that that's all that happened shows that its a tough broadhead.  Same thing happened to me with my first bull with a shuttle and still spins perfectly and groups with the others. I use viper tricks now though because they're sharper and cheaper.

None of the above. Sorry I guess I'm not much help.

Interesting... I never reuse a broad head once it is used on a big game animal.

Not any.  I have shot Magnus stingers with better results, that said the shuttle ts are still in my quiver.

worked really well for me. Couldnt get anything to group. Indexed my broadheads and started cutting fletchings.  That was the only change.

If your tlocks  arnt shooting then you have some kind of tune issue or spine problem . my rest had moved a very slight amount , fixed it and shot clean paper and the flew like darts . if you need a hand pm me . drocks close to you as well.

I believe if major bone is hit properly it can bend any broadhead. But both are good whatever your opinion may be.

Something else is wrong here. If one BH gets perfect flight and groups well then any decent head you put on should too, as long as it is spinning true. Especially shuttle t's. You said you were shooting 100gr muzzys, were the shuttles 100 as well?

That is just plain not true. I've shot broad heads other than muzzy's and had to retune and adjust my sights to fit the broad heads. They were patterning well just way low and right. Muzzy's have always seemed to fly exactly like field tips on my set up.

I just got done shooting my muzzys tonight to see if anything had changed over last year they are shooting as straight as my field points.  I haven't shot shuttle Ts so no comparison for me.

Why? I never said every brand broadhead would hit the exact same spot. I also never said that you didnt have to retune for certain heads. All I was saying is if your able to tune one decent head with your setup, you should be able to tune any other decent head as well. If not then something is wrong, like form, tune, grip, or defect. I'm not sure i understand what your disagreeing with. :dunno:

I have played with the shuttles, borrowed a couple from a buddy to see how they fly, and they flew decent. for my setup seemed a little easier to get tuned for them than for my 125 muzzy's . I'm still using muzzy's. If it matters to you, you can usually still find the 6 pack of muzzy's for 32$ or so, which might buy you 3 Shuttles. For me it came down to the fact that I still had a dozen new muzzy's laying around..

Hillbilli made a good point...

Cost of Shuttle T's are expensive.   You always add up what each arrow cost in your quiver.
