Default RE: Can anybody help with my F.O.C issues

ORIGINAL: nzarcher

Hi all,
I am shooting a Mathews Drenalin at 65lb and 28inch draw. The arrows that i am using are ST Epics which are 28inches long aswell. I have a lot of 100g 3 blade muzzies that i would prefer to use but my F.O.C is low at only 8.1%. I really want to keep using the muzzy broadheads and would love anyknowledge shared to be able to use these and have an F.O.C of around 12%. Any ideas on what i should do other than increase broadhead weight??

Thank you for any help given, happy huntin.
You have to start with the broadhead before trying to build an arrow. Like Art said, the only way to increase is take off the back. Blazers only weigh 4 grains.
I shoot 28 in Beaman ICS Hunters, 2 in blazers, Muzzy Phantom 220 grain @ 266 fps total arrow weight 540 grains, with 21 % FOC. This week end, I shot a 6 point doethe entrance and exit hole was about the size of a silver dollar. He went 45 yards and dropped. Perfect setup for me. BTW. I am drawing 62 pounds.
