Don't shoot just field points and screw in a hunting head to go hunting, practice with the heads you intend to shoot. Know how they fly, and adjust to using them.

field tips are perfect for target shooting
broadheads are perfect for hunting

use and practice with what you plan to shoot at.
Foc has nothing to do with it. Gravity doesn't know or careif where the weight is. It just pulls the arrow to the earth.

A broadhead will have more resistance due to more surface area but that doesn't come into play until way past normal hunting distances. Especially if the arrow is tuned properly and has adequate fletch.
