Default RE: knucklehead bow hunt.

Car...Did you shoot it off a bench like you would sight in your rifle? Give that a try if you haven' t so you can see what your groups are like? If it' s grouping then you should be able to adjust the scope. If it' s not grouping, instead of scrapping the season, why not take the scope off and try shooting with iron sights. That' s assuming it has iron sights. If the iron sights produce good groups then it is probably the scope. If not, then you are stuck for sure. You may also want to shoot some field points out of the thing to see if you can get good groups. If the field points group well, at least you have a starting point to go from. If it shoots field points well, but the broadheads fly like crap, then I suspect that you have a tuning problem. Your bowshop should be able to get you straightened out pretty quickly. If they are telling you that they are too busy, find another one. I know some guys that have a local shop and at this time of year they are slowing down for sure. Same way every year. End of October and early November and they get a little breather. Hope this helps. Jim
