Viper Tricks Are In the Mail!

[BRTreedogs]

I ordered a pack of standards to try. The viper looked appealing as well but not as readily available.

Viper trick 125 , by far the best flying fixed blade out of my bow atleast

@ElkNut1 I remember sending you a Viper trick in that batch of broadheads I sent you back in the day to test. Glad to hear you still like em!

Slick trick Magnum 125

 

[Stalker69]

Going back to the German kinetic 125xl again this year. Hard to beat the way the fly, the sharpness, and the big cut with my weight and speed. I am carrying a mechanical for the first time.

? ( what) Mechanical, GK ‘s are great heads and they are what I use also, but they are not a mechanical head.

I’ll have vipertricks in the quiver with some exodus on standby most likely. May look at wrangling up some Trypans. Still using hypos for whitetail.

I shot Viper tricks last year and will be sticking with them again this year. The deer I killed below was a frontal shot and jumped the string a bit. Arrow zipped him open at the eye and down the neck and then entered its chest and out its lower abdomen. He went about 30 yds. He was a “cryptorchid buck” if anyone is wondering.

I like experimenting so this year I'll have at least one 125gr swept blade Exodus, one 150gr Trypan, and of course my tried and true Spitfires and GR Fatal Steels. I have no idea which one I'll grab until I grab it. But they'll all hit the same aiming spots or they wouldn't be in the quiver.

JNDEER, I hear ya bud! I've got quite a bit of video too seeing the reaction from elk from longbows, recurves & compounds. I can see no connection of broadhead noise making them skittish or jumpy. What I do see is possible bow noise or even more reasonable is the movement we all make in releasing our arrows/bows. There's hand, arm, head movement from us & that certainly can & does cause a reaction. I give zero credit to a broadhead making them drop or lunge. I'm referring to elk here. Thanks!

I agree with this..
Elk can see way more in the peripheral, that most realize( the reason their eyes are out to the side and not straight ahead like a predator).

I will be going with the slick trick standard 100's again, mostly because I have a ton of them and they work great. I've killed with the qad exodus, great head. You guys are making me want to try the vipers.

 

[Alpineelk]

Any u guys ever tried steelforce phatheads? That's what I'll b shooting. I Sliced one right through an antelope last year but any broadhead would slam through a lope

 

[xcutter]

Trophy Taker ATAC 125s. Great head and shoot excellent.

 

[TxxAgg]

Some things just work. Slick Tricks work.

 

[raptor16]

Just got my 2 packs of vipertricks today. Assembled and spin tested all of them. All of them spin beautifully. Gonna test em out next weekend next to my field points.

 

[ElkNut1]

Alpineelk, I haven't used those but we've taken a couple of elk with very similar Magnus & Scirroco heads. I'm not a 2-blade fan personally but if they work for you go for it! Thanks!

Again I will be using the proven RazorTrick. I don't look forward to the day I run out and have to start the search for the perfect head.

I went from Razors to Vipers and have had nearly identical results. They’re a very similar shape, mainly you have a carbon point vs the all blade style.

I watched a bull die on his feet, right where I shot him, in about 3 minutes. I’m done experimenting.

I liked Razor tricks till I had one come apart on me. I hugged the shoulder a little too close on a bull The shot looked decent till I found the arrow about 75 yards into the trail. The front blade was sheared off, my saving grace was the bull was quartering to me a little and I got part of the on side lung. A hairy bit of tracking got me to a second shot and I finished it.
Always seemed strange to me as the blades on the razor trick were beefy and seemed plenty strong.
I think the viper trick was response to the failings of the razor trick.
The vipers are good economical head. I always have few in the line up. I have gotten way better and consistent penetration with them verse the slick trick mags.

What heads do you use for your traditional set up?

Ya I like the idea of a thicker blade so I figured I'd try them. And they fly good out of my setup. Also curious wat u use for trad. I shoot the 185 grizzly single bevel got one bear with them so far didn't penetrate far tho cause I hit it in the spine
