Default aroow inserts

I just picked up a 1/2 dozen set of arrows. When I was putting in feild points I noticed that 3 out of 6 didnt fit. I cant screw them in. Anyone had this happen??

try putting them in and gently turning them the opposite direction you're supposed to until you feel the fp come off the threads, then try screwing them in. usually its the field point. as a last resort screw them in with pliers.

Another thing that might be happening as well is some corrosion. Place a bit of string wax on the threads of the FPs before screwing them into the inserts. This will help the fp go in easier and will aslo keep the fps from corroding inside the insert.
