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

First, if the POIs are not together, what makes anyone think the tune is " perfect" ?
Because I and some others here believe that what a field point does has nothing to do with the tune of broadhead.

I think a lot of assumptions are being made with this statement
Let me define my perfect - bh and field points in the same size group or very close to same size group. I think that is what we are trying to achieve.

It is my contention that it may be as good as you can get at that particular draw weight
My group tunning methods do not ignore draw weight, tip weight, arrow size, fletching type etc. And one or all of those may be tweaked as I group tune - and they will be tweaked to what my bh is telling me.

but if you bareshafted for perfect spine, you would find those POIs in the same area
I am all for bare shafting for spine if that is what you think is good. Proper spine is very important. I do Bareshaft to set up my FP' s - and to test my form.
But since I do not believe BH' s Must fly the same as fletched fieldpoints - I will not assume that a bareshafted fieldpoint, is better at showing me how my broadheads will fly than......well how they actually fly.I would rather check my Spine with broadheads on.

The bh' s will tell you everthing you need to know.

And you are right, Very often they will hit very close to the FP' s, and both camps here could easily end up at the same tune, but through two diff. routes.
