You should be able to get at least a slight offset with the hostage rest. Even with out your fletches should be able to stabilize your arrow. Step back to 30 yards or more and shoot your broadheads. Dont worry about where they hit just watch your arrow. If your getting any tail wag or erratic flight you need to adjust your rest accordingly. Once you have perfect flight then adjust your sights. Once you do that Ill bet you some money your field tips and broadheads are pretty dang close.
Alright please don't bash me here cause I am broke as **** (you pick a 4 letter cuss word to your liking). Call me dumb but I started the day with6 arrows -- 2 I have to get the inserts reset -- any good glue recommendations? So I tightened my broadheads real tight --- I had previously only hand tightened them. So i shoot first arrow -- about 2 inches below my fieldpoints -- 2nd arrow -- splits the first arrow --- AWESOME -- 3rd arrow splits the 2nd arrow -- ****(again pick cuss work to your liking) now I am down to 2 arrows. So I switch the broadhead to my other arrow and go back and shoot -- One of them flies awesome at 20 and 30 yards -- hitting about 2 inches low. The other arrow goes wherever the heck it wants -- pretty consistently way low and left.
So here are my questions -- could the one erratic arrow just be a bad arrow or maybe a bad broadhead? Do you recommend getting a new set of arrows and and starting all over with a walk back test? NOTE: My field tips hit about half inch low and left from center which I don't mind cause it give me a little leway when aiming at the heart I can aim back and high just a bit-- i think this is due to me just not moving my pins yet.
Sorry for the dumb questions -- this is my first season of actually taking this seriously. I want to get this right because I am not the one to go hunting just to wound an animal
