Default Tips Straight... Broadheads Right?

Hey all so today was finally a nice day and so I went out to shoot my new arrows and my field tips are hitting where I point them but the two practice 100 grain Montec G5's that I have are shooting about 4 inches right and 2 inches low at 20 yards. Below is my specs of bow and arrow choice. I went with the arrows because that is what seemed to be best on the OT2 any ideas?

Hoyt Vulcan 26" DL, 71lbs DW
Wisker Biscuit rest G5 ME sight, G5 Meta peep.
Arrow: CX Maxima Hubter 250's cut to 27.5 inches (8.9 grains per inch) nock 11 grains, arrow collar 4 grains, Blazer 2" vanes with as much offset as I can ~2 degrees. G5 100 grain practice broadheads and 100 grain field tips.

It's gonna be more a tuning problem than arrow problem.

Make small adjustments to the rest and nock position.

Re-sight with field tips then shoot broad heads.

If they open up move rest and nock in other direction, the the gaps closes keep making small adjustments 1/32" at a time as a little is a lot.

Just remember after each adjustment re-sight with field points then shoot broad heads.

Ok so when you say move rest and nock do I move one shoot, then move another or both at the same time?

Also lets say I move the rest right 1/32" do I move the nock up or down?

I also noticed that when my arrow is nockedbetwen the d-loop the arrow nockis about 1/32" lower than the center of the biscuit so I assume nonck goes up? If so I guess I will have to take it tothe shop to have them adjust my loop so that it islevel to the biscuit height.

One thing at a time; first elevation and then windage. Move the rest so that you are moving the broadheads to the field points.
