I've killed deer with both the slick trick and the Montec. I, personally, prefer the STs. I shoot the 100gr magnum and am pleased with them.
I was shooting the GoldTip Pro Hunters but my short draw puts me shooting a little lighter arrow than I wanted. I've just switched to the Easton FMJ. It's slower and the bow is quieter with the heavier arrow so we shall see this season.
I stepped up a spine weight last year and it made all the difference in the world in many aspects. I forgave alittle speed and gained a quieter bow, less shock and more KE
I have a 27" draw with 72lb draw and my arrows were what felt like crossbow bolts. Guess that's the down side of being short :rolleyes I'm going to see how I like the Easton FMJs and may go back to the gold tip pro hunter and just have them cut to a longer length and step up to a stiffer shaft (7595 from 5575) I've always been VERY please with those shafts. I've got some of my originals that have all been through 3 animals each and they're still good as new!
I shot those same arrows forever and have zero complaints about them. I did notice every once in a while you would get an odd ball flyer out of the bunch. I do like the slightly heavier Bemans better. I order the bare shafts and apply the NAP quick fletch's
27" is short. I am at 28 1/2 and even then the guys look at me like I am crazy when I get my arrows cut down
My best advise is scent killer. The bow & broad heads are good as long as your shoot is accurate.
Really if you cant hit no bow or arrow will be good.
