I've been squeezing in a few minutes of practice each day for a while now, and am more than ready for Saturday's opener. Last night I matched my arrows to my Thunderheads, and have them flying dead on out to 30 yards. In fact, my Thunderheads, and field points hit on top of each other at that distance on in to 5 yards. At 40 yards, my groups open up a little to about 4 inches, but I don't shoot deer that far anyway, just practice at that distance to make the 30 yards shot seem easier.

I'm also trying spitfires this year, but they seem to fly consistently 2 or 3 inches to the right of the Thunderheads, and they have some wobble in them. The bow is paper tuned, and my arrows fly pretty with Thunderheads, but the spitfires seem to wobble. I've never used them for hunting, and only shot them for the first time the other day, but a buddy bought me a pack to try because he thinks I'm missing something by not using them. I'm not impressed.
