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

Let me clarify myself. I thought that I did; but, because of your comments/tone, it seems probable that I didn' t.

The tuning should be done with both FPs and BHs until they are hitting well within 2 inches at 20 yards. Once this is done, a slight rest or sight change to get them to compensate for the differences would be the ' middle of the road' . This will allow the hunter to utilize the same equipment with better confidence for practice and hunting.

If we can instill a desire to tune to a level of matching FTs and BHs, we' ve seen an overall better tuning situation than the alternative. If you just tell someone to ' move their sight' , we' ve seen much less desirable results.

And I, like many here, are able to get FTs and BHs to hit the same within normal hunting distances. Testimony here by other hunters should be considered.
