I have seen in many post here reference to these broad heads. Give us some feed back on these. I for one am very interested in what you have to say about them

This past year was my fifth year using them.During that time,I've killed 15 deer with them,without having one run out of sight.They're extremely easy to tune,penetrate good and hold up extremely well.this year,I killed three deer and a gobbler with the same broadhead.All I did was touch up the blades.By far the best broadhead I've ever used.

I switched to them last year and it will take something special to make me switch again. Very rugged construction, as mentioned easy to tune and they punched a hole through my Buck this year that was impressive. Checked the head and it was in perfect shape, just honed the edge on the blades for good measure and it's back in the quiver ready for action again. Flight and accuracy is very impressive.
I'd recommend these to anyone without a doubt.

Now I see they have a magnum 1 1/8 cut or standard 1" cut which one is better

I have the 1 1/8" magnum's, never tried the 1" so I can't compare. I previously used Thunderhead 100's and Muzzy 3 blade 100's. With the T-heads I would occasionally get a slight "flyer" that I could never pin down why but they did perform well on Deer. Muzzy's flew nice but the construction just seems fragile as I noticed even a glance off a rib bone was enough to bend the shank or break a blade typically. The Slick Tricks are all solid steel and tough. I put them thru you know what last summer testing them and they passed every test with flying colors. Even shot them thru a piece of 1" plywood and the would not bend or break, sharpen the blades and they'd be ready to hunt with. Finally able to test them on a real target the first week of November and the arrow hit the Buck perfectly broadside, took out a rib on the near side, blew thru both lungs and out the other side. Both entrance and exit holes were amazingly large with a huge blood trail and the Buck barely went 60 yds down hill before piling up. The Slick Trick still spins as true and straight as new, I inspected the blades edges under a magnifying glass and not a one nick so I just touched up their edges a bit and ready to go. I've heard of many others reporting using the same head over & over numerous times.
So far I'm totally impressed with them in every way.

I started using the Slick Tricks last year and while I haven't shot a deer with them as of yet, they are accurate and hit the same as my field points.

I used ST's the first time this year and had no problems tuning them and shot a doe on the first day. Through the front shoulder and broke the opposite side shoulder and she went about twenty yards. I'll never use another broadhead.

Going off of the recommendation of dougell a while back I tried the Slick Tricks a couple of years ago and LOVE them! I've shot at 2 deer with them and put them both down within sight of the shot. They fly as straight as my field points and cut a nice sized hole.
