[QUOTE="GaryBriggs, post: 334929, member: 13082"] There is no risk of SnapBack when using 200lb fast flight or similar line, it is designed to break if the line gets hung up. Therefore it renders the slide useless!!! The slides are only necessary on retrievers, which suck anyways. The slide itself causes all kinds of accuracy problems, and also dramatically effects how deep you can shoot vs a spinner/no slide set up. The slide itself being bigger than the arrow creates a lot of drag traveling through the water. The line is also heavier which can be a problem when shooting at depths below 3-4 feet. I'm not making this up, I used to shoot retrievers. Still have 2 sitting in a box. Once I went to a spinner there was no turning back! [/QUOTE]
