Default Broadheads hitting low

I put my muzzy MX4s on lastnight adn they are shooting straight, the only problem is they are dropping about 4 inches at 20 yards, these are 100gr. Should I drop to a 85 or 90 gr muzzy? They hit dead on with my aluminums.

I'd try dropping your nock point down a tad and then shooting a new group of field points and a new group of broadheads. Ideally the gap between the groups should close. Might have to repeat a few times until they are grouping together.

My guess is your nock point is too high. But I'm no expert.

you probly need to adjust your rest or nocking point. That is the best way to fix it. You shouldnt need to change broadheads

Broadhead tuning your bow should fix the problem. There is a whole secion on how to do that in a PDFon Easton's website.

I just dont understand why if I use my aluminums with the same broadheads, they hit right with the field points on the carbons and on the aluminums????

Your carbons are probably a different diameter than your aluminum arrows. That would cause the realtionship between the arrow and the string to change.
