Default Broadhead grouping

I've been shooting my broadheads to make sure they're grouping well before the season starts. They group very well but I had to adjust my pins to bring them to the center of the target. So needless to say they don't group with my fieldpoints but they do group well. Should I be worried that they don't fly with my FP or is it ok just as long as they group well?

Default RE: Broadhead grouping

Refer to the Easton tuning guide. They've got a good graphic in there of how to adjust your nock and rest so that field tips and broadheads hit the same.

I just used the guide this weekend to broadhead tune and I ended up getting Innerlocs which were hitting 4 inches low at 30 yards to be consistent with field tips - no sight adjustment required. Both broadheads and field tips hit the same out to at leaast 50 yards now, the farthest range from which I shot. The bottom line is that when you broadhead tune, you also insure that the arrow isn't being steered from the front. This can be a big deal if you end up hunting in the wind, and chances are you will.
