Trying to fine tune for next wednesday. The 4 arrows on the right are field tips, the 2 on the left are Muzzys, a 4 blade and a 3 blade with practice blades. I shot 2 field tips then a broadhead then 2 FTs and then the other broadhead. This seems to be tipical. The BHs hit about 3" to the left. What would you do? Move sight to sight in the BHs or just compensate when aiming, or something else?
Thanks
Good Luck!

Looks like you are hitting a little low and left with your BHs. But the group looks great. Some suggestions-
1. move your sight and then resight in at many distances. IF OK don' t sweat it Go hunting.
2. Paper tune again, make sure you are right on. If not adjust, re test.
3. Long shot but spin test your arrows. If the BHs wobble then adjust and retest.
3. If this pic was from 90 yards, You rock go hunting!
PS good job practicing with your BHs before season!

If I were you...I would start all over again. You might as well just go get a new bow, new sights, new arrows, new filed tips and broadheads etc etc. Then get it all set up, paper tune it...make adjustments....paper tune again, just in case. Then get everything all sighted in.
Actually, I think you should re-sight your current bow to how your broadheads are hitting. It looks like your hitting em pretty well. Adjust to your broadhoads and good luck in a week and a day (who' s counting right)

It looks good to me, you might have a little difference in the tips you are using (field or broad head) thats ok, Fields tips give you a great idea on where your broad heads are going to hit, but you still need to do some teaking to get it just right. Thats why you should always shoot with your braod heads before you walk into the woods.

Were these all shot from the same angle? If so it would appear that ther is some problem w/ the flight. Check for head wobble, I like to align my blades and fletching( I get better groups, maybe mental?!!) , if these are good then I would paper tune , if that' s good then move sights. I shoot Wasp Hammer SST' s and have them hitting same as field tips and shoot groups almost as tight with them too! Hope this helps

I' m with twig... The angle doesn' t seem right, and if they have that much tail whip at whatever distance you were shooting from they will different tail whip further away or closer... I would make sure that the arrows are flying true, all the arrows should be facing the same direction out of the target...
As for your question I Always sight my bow in for my Broadheads... I dont even put my field tips on after I sight in my BH... Strickly Hunting as far as that goes...

of course, grouping as well as you are, maybe you should be writing some of the above instead of reading it.
