Default Does Oversized Fieldtips affect flight?

I have trouble pulling out my Beman ICS out of 3D targets. I tried some 125gr field tips that are wider than the arrow, and the pull out much easier than the 100gr that are not as wide as the arrow. If I buy 100gr field tips used on a aluminum arrow, is flight affected much? I was looking at the Satallite silk tips also.

Think of how far broadheads stick out from the sides. I doubt a little over hang will affect anything.

Never mind. I found these satillite field points that work great made for smaller carbons. But the way they are shaped, I can pull them out of targets real easy. Shaped so where it screws in is the same diameter as my bemans inserts but gets wider as it goes up. They flew just as good as anything else.
