RE: Field point vs. Broadhead ... big problem here
 
When the guy told you to tune your broadhaeads to your fletching: he was telling you the blades on your broadhead should line up with your vanes or feathers. Look down your arrow to see if the blades on the broadheads line up with the vanes. If they don't, you can heat up the area aound the insert with a lighter (with the broadhead in) and turn the broadhead until it lines up when the glue melts enough.

Are your vanes helical or straight on your shafts? If they are straight it may be causing your arrows to plane as they travel through the air. are your arrows flying at an angle or straight?

Many different things can be causing this to happen.

I myself have had difficulty with the Muzzys and my bow is tuned in. Any one have anything to say about expandable heads? Been thinking of switching.

i thought i was having the same problem today when i first shot my broadheads today with my bow. the problem was that my vanes were hitting the arrow rest. after i got it figured out they were shooting very well, up until i started getting warn out then i didn't do that great.
