RE: BroadHead Advice
I have used the NAP Crossfires and they fly great with no tuning, but then again I have a well tuned bow. I put one through the the middle of the spine of a mature 10pt buck this year when he ducked my arrow. There isn't a sharper broadhead than NAP's diamonized blades.

My Rocky Mountain 3 blade Ironheads have taken Elk, Caribou, Black Bears, Buffalo to name some of the larger animals with excellent results & they fly great. Good luck in your Elk hunt.

Agreed all the way, I shoot Montecs, and they have always flew like my field points, muzzy's also, both great heads. Either would be a great choice for you.

MULTIPLE!
The key to broadhead flight is a well tuned bow, matched tuned arrows and adequate fletch. All this and the arrow comes out of the bow properly, the arrows are quick to spin thusly stabilizing the arrow so that the broadhead will not plane the arrow.
I have Muzzy, G5's, Slick Tricks all flying like field points.
There are others like the Shuttle T that are marketed as field point accuracy and I've read several members here backing that marketing.
I'm heading to Colorado for Elk this fall and exandables are not permitted. What fix broadhead would you recommend for Elk. Is there a broad head that flies like a fieldpoint?

Get a sharpening stone for those Montecs, and sharpen them out of the box, then everytime you get to the hunting camp. You cant bust them, they are built like tanks.
