i was told today that when you get a muzzy screwed down all the way into the insert if you line the blades up with the vanes they will fly better is this true?

Absolutely not, there is absolutely no correlation to arrow flight and broadhead alignment.

I should clearify, not 3 or 4 blade anyway. Think of it this way, how do you get 4 blade Muzzys aligned with 3 fletch. I know some traditional shooters prefer the 2 blades to start vertical and some horizontal I think, I'm no traditional guy.

I have heard the same, but to be honest, unless your bow is set up correctly, consistent flight is never guaranteed. I don't shoot muzzy's but my G5s fly true regardless of how the vanes and blades are aligned. I will admit, certain alignments will get a little better result, but not enough to make me concerned. Best of luck.

Just stop and think about it for a second. The key to good broadhead flight beyond the bow is to have the arrow spinning as fast as possible as well as the getting it spinning immediately out of the bow. Obviously if it's not spinning there will be planing.

If the arrow is spinning the alignment of the fletch to blade is irrelevant.

But I am a TRADITIONAL guy...well atleast part-time. LOL

but is there anything i could do to get my broadheads to fly straighter instead of sighting in my bow for my broadheads...? i shoot very accuratly with field points and when i put on a muzzy and i shoot it at a target it is always off and i dont get it any tips?

The funny thing about field tips is that you can shoot rather well without having a well tuned bow. I'd say put on the field tips and paper tune. If that doesn't help, do a search on tuning on the tech forum.

I have never shot Muzzy's. I've heard too many weird things about them to bother.

I have shot Thunderheads, like thousands of other guys have. Thunderheads are awesome but always flew just a hair low, no matter what I did.

Then I switched to Magnus Stingers and won't look back. Stingers fly so accurate, they are like a heat seeking missle! [8D] The only trick I did with mine was use the tiny rubber O ring from the leftover box of Thunderheads, and used that on the Stingers. That way, I can get them just snug enough and also be able to get them aligned vertical with the bow string.

my first question is have you spin tested your arrows? Do they spin true?

My second question is at what speed are your arrows flying? Sometimes faster flying arrows with fixed blade heads have a tendency to plane and fly off course. What I have found this starts to become an issue possibly at 280 to 290fps especially if your bow is not tuned well.
