Default arrow flight unbelieveable??????

yeah i got a new fiber optic pin for my bow a couple days ago. Today was the first day i coulda put it on and start shooting it so i did and sighted in my field tips. Well they're sighted in now!!! my last grouping from 20yards was i kid you not no more than 2 inches in circumference. So I go over to my buddies house to shoot at his block to see how my broadheads were flying. Cause I really don't feel like putting broadhead holes in my $140 3-D deer. And they flew perfect, a;most better then my fieldtips!!! IS this supposed to happen??? I don't think so, but, I'm not complaining. But, to go from 90gr. fieldtips to 90gr. 4-blade muzzy's, you think they would be a little off don't you. Anyway opening day is next tuesday
(oct. 15) and I'm oh soo ready. And let me just say that tonight, while shooting at the block I put one of my arrows, with a broadhead on, throught the block and out about 15 feet behind it. Say what you want, it happened and my buddy bought this block like a month or so ago so it's not too worn in yet, 15 feet out the back..... DANG
Anyway good luck to everybody, be safe and as always

I like your philosophy of not shooting your target out but shooting your buddies out. <img src=icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle> He must be a good friend. Now go get some venison!

if your bow is tuned properly, field points and broadheads should hit on the same place. If you experience small variations, make sure you line up your vanes with your blades. I was shooting 2 inches to the left with broadheads, and after lining up the vanes, I am now shooting on the same place.
Good luck out there. Your confidence must be sky-high
