#3. If your braodhead tipped arrows are consistently hitting in the same place in a nice tight group then all you have to do is move your rest in the direction of your field tipped arrows. In other words if your broadheads are impacting 3 inches high of your field tipped arrows then move your rest down in 1/32" increments until they group together.

#4. Just because your Rage heads are impacting with your field tips now doesn't mean squat. Your bow/arrow combination is still slightly out of tune and your arrows are still not entering the target perfectly straight and you are wasting KE (in flight as well as at the target) that could be used to push the arrow through the animal and break bones.


Of course this is all assuming that your arrows are properly spined and your bow is set up properly.
Nice! you covered it all for me

Note on the #4... Using a mechanical just b/c its the only thing that will fly well is like trying to put a band-aid on a knife wound. Just covering up the problem and not really fixing it. You should take a look into the easton tuning guide, and learn how to bh tune your bow, where it will shoot ANY bh out of your bow. You will be much better off in the long run, and it will mean that your bow is really in tune...
