Hmm... I don't shoot these heads, but 5_shot should be able to tell you. Just do a search in here or on google.com and you'll come across some head comparisons by 5_shot, I believe. If I remember correctly, just line the blade with your fletching or just put it in straight. But if you want to, try all angles and let us know how it goes.

You want to set them so that they are at the same angle as your fletching. In other words, if you have right helical or right offset fletching, set the blades so that they are going to the right direction when viewing the broadhead from the rear, towards the front.

Jim is correct, set the blades up so they follow the direction of your fletchings. The deadheads are a tough accurate head with some nice features. I think you will like how they preform.

Thanks for your help.I will get out this weeekend and give them a shot.the only other thing is I can't get the diamond point to line up with the blades when it's tight.
