I first bought them (the 125 grain LandShark) for use with my recurve and longbow. In talking to the Simmons crew (FYI Jerry is pretty much retired as of recently) they convinced me to try them with my compound (Browning Mirage SX set at 65lbs shooting carbons). Well, they fly like darts....straight darts. I made no adjustments to my sight, rest, etc. and they flew exactly like my field tips. I had tried Muzzy 3-blades just prior and they were noticeably off compared to the field tips. I gave some to a friend (local pro shop owner) and he had the same experience with how they flew. My long-winded point is don't be afraid to try them with your compound set-up (I would just stay away from the big monster 190 or 205 grain heads myself).
