Default Target & Field tips

Ive read alot of posts and alot of people talk about spin testing broadheads . What about Target and field tips. If they get the tips bent and flattened out from hitting other arrows and other hard stuff left in a target .And they wobble and spin erratically will this cause the arrow to fly off aim point .

Default RE: Target & Field tips

deercutter, typically if your field points get bent a little or aren' t spinning quite true, it won' t affect your arrow flight much. The main reason that broadheads need to spin true is that they will plan, or try to steer the arrow off target if they are slightly out of wack, especailly fixed broadheads. The larger cutting fixed heads are the worst where as mech. heads won' t try to steer the arrow as much.
