Sounds good, but why is it that I miraculously somehow stop pulling shots when I screw on a field point or a Wasp Boss?

Different broadheads react to different things differently. Wow, thats a mouthful...

What I mean by that is if you have a longer broadhead, such as those stingers you mentioned, they can infact be MORE subject to minor flinches or form techniques. Same goes for clearance issues or unsquare arrows. Just like some bows are easier to shoot than others, some broadheads are easier to get good flight out of than others. Muzzy's for example, are one of the hardest broadheads to consistant, good arrow flight from. Reason being that the trocar tip is very heavy. If you're form is decent, your arrows not spined right, your arrows not squarely cut, and if you get just the smallest amount of wiggle in them... that extra weigth way out front is going to cause you some real headaches. I'm not knocking muzzy's, they are awesome... but that is one of their weakest points. If you get them flying good, then you can usually get almost anything flying good.
I see what your saying and agree 100%. What form or tuning flaws I could get away with using field points or smaller broadheads the Stingers won't tolerate.
I think this season I'll press the "Easy Button" and stick with the more forgiving Wasp heads for now.
