Magnus Stingers work great for me. They are the only fixed blade I've shot so far that group right on top of my field points.

Could be something wrong with the bow, or your release, the wrong arrow, or even bad heads.

4 problems I've had are bad heads, inconsistent arrows, bad cam on bow, poor release. Without question bad arrows have been the number one reason. I can take one and pretty much bore a hole through a back stop, change to another arrow and the impact point will change.

Just got a work it out to the best of your ability. With everything that's against the shooter it's no wonder confidence problems are so prevalent. It most likely ain't you.

Really need some kind of legal action in the hunting industry to force manufactures to sell what they claim if they wont do it voluntarily. The excuses are too many and too much for the top dollar we spend. For the money we should get "Which check needs wiping sir." Can't think of any other industry that charges top dollar that doesn't give a top effort.

I thought so. try a fall away rest, serious

Thers no need to buy a fall away or buy new heads. Learn how broadhead tune you bow until fp's and bh's group together. Take a look at eastons tuning guide, it will explain how to do it.http://www.oregonsportsmans.com/foru...opic.php?t=133
If you still cant get them to group, you probably have a spine or clearance issues. Hope this helps.

Usually, if the bow is tuned right, BH and FP will fly pretty close to the same. I've noticed a big difference between the two if I was using straight fletching rather than helical fletching. It seems to make a difference to me, that's why I've always used helical fletching.

But arrows are expensive. The Slick Trick BH I tried shot just like my field points, so did the Muzzy three blade broadheads. Rage BH will give you the flight that you want, but I think they're over priced. I've used them before and they worked just fine. Modern mechanical BHs are a lot better than they used to be.
