I use feathers and go with 5 inch left wing. I have no problems working back and forth between field points and broadheads with no adjustments. Flight and impact point is the same.

I really tune my bows to the nth degree. I don't even need fletching. But I do shoot 4" just to make sure I can't screw things up too bad.
