Default RE: Arrow Flight different with broadheads vs. field points

I respectfully disagree with Mr. Ragsdale.

Besides, he can afford to have TEN different set-ups. Most hunters can only afford one set-up and that has to do multiple jobs.

And please keep in mind that I' m not promoting anything absolute but rather an attempt to get things as close as possible. This depends on the capabilities and tools available to the archer. If the archer wants to accept using a different sight setting, that' s their call.

Look at it this way. We' re not all capable of the same tuning qualities. We' re also hunting under different conditions. If we lower our standards for the game we' re trying to take by acceptance of limited tuning which affects BH accuracy and KE, we' re not being fair to the game we seek.

Can FTs and BHs be made to hit in the same general location? Yes, and we do it all the time. The difference that seems to be disputed here is what tolerance should be allowed. Having two COMPLETELY different patterns is not acceptable, IMPO.
