Quicktune 4000 and Broadheads

dick_cress · 08-19-2003, 11:44 PM

Last fall when I installed my QT 4000 my field points and 100 gr Thunderheads printed very close. Yesterday I started shooting broadheads to check the prionting out. To my amazement they are not even close to where they were last fall. Incidentally, my field points are grouping at 2" to 2 1/2" from 20 to 30 yards.[BTW I know I need a new string[due to string stretching]-but that comes sometime after hunting season.

I am interested in determining whether it is me or my equipment. I know I can adjust my rest in tiny increments. Do any QT fall away users have anything to offer?

I' ve been using the QT 4k since last July and have absolutely no problems with it. I just started shooting BH' s and they are still slice the vanes off one another.

You didn' t say where the BH' s are hitting. If they are high or low, chances are your nock point may have changes because of string stretch. Check it out. If everything is in check with last years settings, sounds like you just need to tighten up your form a bit.

I shoot with a No-Peep and it limits bad form. My BH' s were hitting 1 to 2" high and 3" left.

That said, I downloaded the BH tuning FAQ from NAP and followed their recvommendations. The yesterday I split the differences: I moved my rest about 1/32" to the right then moved my sights a tad up and left.

BINGO. My BH' s are hitting the bull at 10 o' clock and my field points at 5 o' clock. Both the BH' s and FP' s are cutting the 2" bull at 20 yards and my 30' s are not that much different.

I' ll replace my string next year and that will solve the problem.
