Default Broadhead ?

What broadhead (besides RAGE) flies just like your field tip?

I know that Rage does but I dont really want to spend the money. and My field tips are Right on so I dont want to mess up my sighting much.

So your suggestions please.

You looking for a mechanical or a fixed? I shoot Muzzy MX-4 and they fly like my field points. But out of a properly tuned bow they should just about all fly like a FP.

Either one fixed or mechanical.

Mechanicals are going to offer wider cutting diameters and will be easier to make fly like a field point, however dont use them as a band aid for a poorly tuned bow. Fixed blades are going to be tougher.

Slick tricks fly well out of my rig.

Anybody try these yet? It's made by Eastman so I'm afraid of wasting my money, but it doeslooks like they're trying to improve on existing designs. It's called Firstcut XT and it's 100 grain.

As far as Fixed Blade heads, Slick Tricks fly as well as any head I've seen.

Spitfires, but they cost only 4 or 5 dollars less than rage. It's probably better to go ahead and spend a little morewhen it comes to broadheads. Just remember, you get what you pay for. I wouldn't risk shooting a deer with a cheap broadhead that I didn't have confidence in. Spitfires are great mechanicals and fly like a field tip.
