Slick Trick Question

[bowhuntingboy]

I bought some of these broadheads and shot them into a morrel yellow jacket target, but they are way hard to pull out and really tare up the target really badly when i do pull them out, so I was wondering if there is a way to prevent this from happening.
Thanks in advance.

If you are shooting the bag model.... it was made for field points only. If you are shooting the block model...try pushing the head through the target and unscrew the head before you pull the arrow out.

It is the target that is meant for broadheads, but whe I was pulling it out it would just pull lots of the foam out. I will have to try pushing it all the way through, but i'm not sure if that will be possible. Any other suggestions would be appreciated. I was thinking a making the back of the blades sharp like the main cutting blade, but I am wondering if that would mess with the flight of the broadhead.
Thanks.

Desertflinger is right.
I use "The Black Hole" layered foam target.
It is very similar to the "Block".
I use Slick trick broadheads too, and yes, if you take the time to first unscrew the broadhead, you will not tear up the target.

I have Slick Tricks and the Morrel target as well. Unscrewing the b-head is about the only way to prevent taking foam out also. It's not just the slick tricks, I've shot a few different b-head into it and they all do the same thing, hard to get out and rip the target up. I have yet to find the perfect b-head target. I might try the 4x4 block next, I had the regular foam block and it didn't last long, but the 4x4 Block has a layer of hard foam around it, with the layers inside...........never mind, I'm sure you guys have seen it.

There is a logical reason that it is happening. The back edge of the blades are 90 degrees. Which obviously creats alot of resistance against the back of the blades when trying to pull them out.

I shoot the Centurion from Gold Tip, it has a less dramatic angle to the back of the blades which not only helps with flight but also makes tham alot easier to remove from targets.
