Default Rage 2blade. WHY?

Everytime i shoot my field tips im right on target. Then I shot my braodhead and it kept flying a little funny right before impact and going low to the left. (I shot two seperate braodheads and they both did the same thing) Why are they doing this it seemed like they shot fine last season. What braodheads would you recommend that shoot like your fieldtips.
thanks

Sounds like you have either unspined arrows, or some cam lean causing some ossillations on the string. Could be many things.

I suggest tuning the bow.

Agreed. Slapping a mechanlical on will just mask the underlying problem.

Your bow's not tuned. See some of the stickies at the top about walkback tuning and group tuning. I'd suggest reading Easton Archery's tuning guide and focusing on the broadhead-tuning section.
