Default RE: .001 or .003

I am suprised to see no one brought up arrow tuning with broadheads in this thread. With the speed of todays bows, even the mid price range ones, having an arrow that spins true with a broadhead is vitally important. I just began doing this tuning myself last season, and noticed that even a little wobble at the broadhead is bad news. I never could get my 100 gr. Thunderheads to fly well even though they had no wobble in them, and the 100 gr. Muzzy's needed to be spot on to fly acceptable. I had been concerned with the difference in impact between BH's and field points of 2-3" at 20 yards, not a problem for most guys, but someone had replied that they would be kicking the dog over that last year.

So with that said, I would opt to shoot the .003's in the extremely reasonable Gold Tip XT's. Leave the .001's for the rich guys who feel they need them to try and shoot in the top 10 at their 3D's.
