Default I THINK I'M MAKING PROGESS W/BROADHEADS

Okay, this is more like it. I moved the rest back right 1/32" and up just a touch. This is what happened at 20 yards. I haven't set the sights yet, but once I adjust them, the BH group should be right onthe FP group at 20 yards. First the FPs:

I'm trying to get the other picture loaded. I'm having Javascript problems.

Sorry for the delay. First I couldn't get the reply to work, then my mouse died. Here's the pic of the 20 yard BH group. Don't know what happened with the dead center. I'd say this is better.

I am still tinkering with mine as well, every broadhead i shoot wants to go low and right - Stingers and muzzy 100 grains - could speed have anything to with it , the stingers flew like darts out of my 64 lb vtec and were striking right on with field points - now they are low and right out of vectrix

Speed definately could have something to do with it as well as spine.You changed bows and went to a bow with a higher stored energy,therefore,it is entirely possible that the arrow is underspined for the current setup.

littlechief,you are getting close and it looks to me like you are still left with both fp and bh's.More with the bh's so a little more tweaking might be in order.


IMO,feathers would make the whole process a bit easier.

And every one killed a hog too! You'll be ready come June!
