Default RE: broadheads hitting 4 inches low.

Here's some of the things I do. First check to see if there's any contact, often there is. If there is none then check the tiller. If that is ok move the rest, slightly up and in, but if you do you could create some contact so check again. If that solves it great, if not it could be a weakness in something. I think your almost there though and it should be an easy fix. Mine do not hitthe same, but I don't care if they do, they are not the same. I don't like a diving arrow though, orone that wont shoot an arrow straight up and down from varying distances (veering).

I would move the rest up ever so slightly and see what happens. You could also try moving the nock down just a little bit. Do one or the other. It sounds like you are almost there. Just remember that you have wings on the front of your arrow and vanes on the back. They will magnify any tuning problem. That's where I'd start. If it doesn't solve your problem, move your sights to address the issue and call it good.
