RE: expanding broadheads won't fly straight

That's odd for expandables to shoot badly. Have you spun tested them? I'm wondering if you got a bad pack that has bend ferrules on the broadheads. This could mess things up for you. Having the...

RE: Pretty cool pic from today's practice session.

Ok, your friend's draw length is too long. Just kidding.;) Pretty neat picture, especially considering the short amount of time the arrow would have been in flight.

RE: Do they stay come fall?

I really think it depends on the deer, and the area he's living in. If a buck has food, cover, and does, I don't see why he would want to leave. But, some deer just wander. I think deer stick aroiund...
