Very well said indeed! However, if you have your bow tuned really well you can still have very good accuracy using fixed blades and offset fletching. But, when you shoot that same broadead and arrow combination but with a good helical, then look out nocks and fletching because something is going to get torn up!! (goodbye great groups...hello robinhoods and shredded arrows!!) IMO anyway. I've had much, much tighter broadhead groups with helicals.
