Anytime! ;) I like to tinker with this stuff. When it comes down to it, charts are really only suggestions and not the bible. 10-12%, 10-15% might be the "suggested" FOC, it really comes down to your own setup and what it really likes. I wouldn't worry about much of anything if your broad head tuning groups are solid. Anyone can group tune field pts, for a hunter....it all comes down to BH group tuning with arrow flight.

Right now I'm shooting right about 8.5% FOC with a 61lb Tribute @ 28.5" draw and 355 gr Maxima 250's. 100 gr tips, 27.78 total gr Flex Fletch 418's. For now...all is well in arrow flight land. ha, ha
