Field tip compared to Broad heads.
I was told last year when i started archery hunting my field tips would not shoot the same as my broad heads. Both tips shoot in the same spot all day long. Anyone else get the same results? Just curious why nobody around home does. I am shooting 100grn bullets 
if that matters.
if that matters.

blackpowder= archery, is this posted in the right area? Oh I got it, you are trying to up your non shill, threads
but, alot of people have issues with broadheads flying off path of a field point. it can usually be traced back to a poorly tuned bow. If everything is set up correctly they should hit with the same POI. It is far worse and exaggerated with a fixed head over a mechanical. It is my opinion that you should tune better and use a proven fixed blade, like Muzzy. I tried Rages, when they first hit the market and was all the rage but, when i could not get a solid pass thru at 30yds on a rib cage. I went back to my Muzzy's.

I can't hunt here with a crossbow, the state doesn't allow them. I use a compound . I usually don't shoot past 35 yards so pass throughs are the norm at that distance. I love the muzzys
