Hi all
My dad just got a cross bow since turnig 65 and he shot it at my place over the weekend. here's the issue, 20yds field tips right on. # blade muzzy's shot 5 inches low with same weight, more than 1 arrow all shot 5" low at 20 yds. Then he shot one of his rocky expandables and it too shot 4-5 " low. This was from a sitting position with sticks to steady his rest and all, so I know it was the broadhead. Then he shot a 125 grain fieldtip and it ws only about 1" low as compared to his 100grain fieldtip at 20 yds. I must say, ican't believe how loud of a twang this thing had either. It's a brand new Parker Terminator 175# and it seems like it shots fast, but the twang is LOUD. Is there something to quiet them down? It had string leaches from the "kit" that was installed on the whole thing.

Cat whiskers on the strings and a heavier arrow/broadtip combo will make all the difference. Have you chronographed it yet?
