nub- that's expensive for those things.

Getnbit- I have shot a few varmits with them cuz they were 6$ for 3. That is by far the WORST flying broadhead that I have ever put on the end of my arrow.

Also it is a big as almost every fixed blade head on the market. I would definately suggest as these guys have going to www.eastonarchery.com/downloads and getting the tuning guide. If followed properly it should allow you to shoot any broadhead successfully.
Good luck.

I agree with the spin the arrow bit and reading up on the Easton Archery web site on proper tuning of your set up.

I use Muzzy Broad heads and have great field point and broad head placment. I do have to be very strict on my form when I shoot my broad heads, but they group just as well as my field points without adjusting my sites. Granted, I shoot a hard right-hand helical which helps stablize the arrow and I shoot a Muzzy Drop away to avoid any fletching contact.

My wasps, muzzys, montecs, and thunderheads all fly great on my Beman ICS hunters. But I do have it tuned to perfection. My buddy shoots his fine also. We shot them at 60 yards a couple days ago.

I also shoot ICS Beman hunters And they fly well with Montecs and Thunderheads! and with most likely with any other fixed blade head as long as your" BOW IS WELL TUNED AND YOUR ARROWS ARE TO ![&:] If your "Bow is not tuned properly nor your Arrows" that should be no reason to switch to a mech head![:'(]

I am shooting Stellforce Hellfires in 100 gr and they fly awesome. Haven't had any problems with them. I shoot CX terminators Select 6075's. and my bow is shooting 73lbs. The broadheads are hitting the same place as the field points.

Paper Tune your arrow with a bare shaft. That should make a difference. But it sounds like you'll have to do more than that.

My fixed blades cut the fletching off my field tip arrows. So it is possible to get them to fly good.
