I shoot the standards and love them.  I looked at the magnums but do not like the blade angle which could result in deflections as well as planing.  This is just my observation and is not backed by field testing.

Ya I switched to Slick tricks this year, after shooting G5 Strikers (didnt like them) and Muzzy (nothing wrong with them).  I havent shot them just yet but will in the next week or two and see how they fly.

Is there a reason why all of you guys shoot the standards over the magnums?

whichever flys better with your set up.  looks like a muzzy copy to me  :chuckle:

It sounds like it's time to get a new gun.

I shoot the Magnums and really like them!  They punch a nice big hole and fly just as well as field points.

I shoot the Magnum 100's with a FOB and they are dead on out to 70 yards (the farthest I have a pin for).
God Bless,

I shoot standards for deer, but I just switched to a full cutting steep angled broad head for elk. I am planing a guided hunt in New Mexico next year and most the guides recommend that type broad head for better penetration, so I figured I would try it here first see how they workout. :dunno: :twocents:
