RE: Broad heads vs Practice tips
I think some of us who shoot year round and hunt eveything we can with a bow, sometimes assume that other people know and think archery just like we do. I hope my last posting did clearify my original intentions. Iwould never recommend anyone hunting with a poorly tuned bow. Whereas IAGREE with all of the comments regarding using Easton's Tuning instruction, there is stillanother variable to consider. There are some fixed blade broadheads that will not impact the same as others. I was a shooter for one of the major bow manufacturers for several years and in that time I tested several different broadheads and other equipment. The head you personally prefer to shoot may hit the same as your field points, but some other heads may not. Their design may cause wind planing to a greater degree with your arrow, fletching size, bow poundage, etc.. I don't mean to beat a dead horse, but this subject probably isn't as simple and straight forward as it appeared. Regardless, I reiterate that anyone who hunts should make every effort to be competent with their equipment out to a maximum effective range. Everything we hunt deserves that respect and effort from us.
