Best arrow flight and best accuracy are not always synonymous. The obverse is also true. Best arrow flight and best accuracy are not always synonymous.
Well thank you Arthurp, master of the obvious

I'd be very happy to sacrifice a tiny bit of energy transfer to know that the arrow is going to hit where I aim it, rather than a few inches off.
I was looking more along the lines of moving your sight rather than you're arrow rest, if you are already shooting execptable groups but not grouping with your field tips etc. I don't think would recommend that anyone hunt with a bow that wouldn't shoot within a couple of inches of where you aimed. But I honestly have never had that trouble. Going back to some more of what Bernie discussed in his book, if you can make the bow do the same thing, it is going to it in the same hole regardless of tune (i.e. Hooter Shooter). So if your broadheads hit a couple of inches from where you aim, just move your sight. Bernie definetly has some intersting opinions!
