Shot a doe at 30 yds with my Phoenix and 125 Slick Tricks. She was quartering in..(I know bad idea but I didn't think it was too severe) well the bolt hit just behind shoulder and came out her side and I think her rear leg was forward cause after finding her I found the rear femor broken in half. The bolt was a pass through. Bolt and broadhead look new! I won't buy anything else. Other than bad angle of doe everything performed GREAT!!!

Good deal!
Just about the same specs as my first crossbow kill... a doe at 30 yards, slightly quartering-to, 125 Slick Trick from an Ibex (Phoenix thumb-holed sister). Produced one very dead, easily found deer.
Hopefully the first of many for you!
