Ok well I went back out tonight and shot! I am now shooting as so....
10,20,30,40yrds

Field Tips:
10- 1"High
20-1/4" High
30-3" Low and a Hair Maybe 1/8" Right if that
40- 8-9" Low and also maybe 1/4" Right if that

and for those going "How can he tell an 1/8" difference".. if you fling enough arrows at the target it really does become evident of exactly where you are hitting, this is where the whole group shooting comes in handy!! It is key I believe to truely tuning your bow, but I do not have the courage to keep slapping arrows together!! I cringe everytime I hear that noise!!!

I'll be completely honest I did not move a thing, and figured I could get it closer at the 30-40yrds but I am completely happy with that little bit of change at those distances! I know it is probably not "the right thing to do" but I figured I couldnt even move the rest as small of an increment as I probably would need too!? I MAY try to get the change tommorow, but I am still not sure if it will give me the change I need anyhow??

Rage Broadheads:
10- 1/2" high
20- Dead Center
30- Same as Field tip
40- The best I can tell is about an 1/8" more right then the field tip!

Disclaimer: I have NO INTENTION of attempting a shot past 25yrds with a broadhead this year let alone 40 so I should be just fine with this set-up?!!

Slick Tricks:
10- Dead Center
20- 3" Low----1 1/4" Right
30-?
40?

I was starting to get shaky with my shooting and decided to give it a rest for the night! Ill play some more tommorow..!!

I will let you know how I am shooting tommorow!!

Also I am completely tickled as I was grouping arrows together tonight better then I have all year, it all kind of came together for me and it all felt great, the draw, the anchor, the release, the shot, everything was good!!!
