Broadhead Tuning Question
 
This is my gf's first year hunting, I got her G5 Montecs. She is shooting a Parker Sidekick at 40lbs. My question is...I picked up her bow tonight up tonight and checked how the broadheads grouped at 10 yds in the basement compared to the field points. The G5's seemed to be an inch low of the field points. I realize the longest shot should be 20 yds. My question is should I mess with the arrow rest and try to get it dead on, or is it not enough to worry about?

I would shoot it at 20 and get it right. You should only have to raise the rest a tad, or lower the nocking point. I wouldn't do more than that.

Thanks for the reply, I'll tinker with it and see if I can make it better...or worse, ha.

I'd have her do the shooting.

You want your broadheads hitting right were you aim. I have seen cases where 1" difference can cause you to miss or make a bad hit. Most times it won't matter, but I always prepare for the worst case.
