Thanks BT and Skip, i am just nervous about moving the rest because it is shooting good, but if you guys say it can be better im gonna try it tomm. Only thing i dont understand is if my field points are dead on and heads are high, if i move my rest down i know it will lower my heads but wont it also lower my field points?
Hence, bringing my heads dead on but fieldpoints low? Thanks guys.

The FP's will move slightly but the BH's will move much more, until they and up together. Fixed blade heads track the way the rest is pointing more than the FP's do.

Correct.
You may have to adjust your sight a bit after you are all set but the reason your field points are not showing anything is because they are streamlined and error in a small degree will not subject them to the same point of impact errors.
I have seen VERY FEW heads which resisted flight tuning @ 20 yards and if it wont fly at 60 you would have scattered areas at that range....not good groups.
What I am hearing you say is that you have a broadhead which has a good flight dynamic for your set up but just needs to be tweaked.

Just have fun with it and don't get excited if you go a bit to far at some point. Just remember that there isn't anything you can do that you cant undo  |

OK, i did not have alot of time to flight tune today but heres what happened. @ 5 yds my BH's were 1 1/2"Left of my FP's and up and down was perfect. @ 20yds my BH's were 3" left of my FP's. So, i moved my rest til i got my BH's and FP's to hit the same left to right from 5-20yds. Tomorrow i will get the up/down. A couple questions though, should i do up/down and left to right out to 30yds? Also, Now that they are hitting the same i just move my sight now to get them to hit the line togeather, right? They both are 1" right of the line @ 5yds and 2" right of the line @ 20yds. So, i should move my sight instead of the rest now right? Also, if you shoot your BH into a fieldpoint bag you get a cool passthrough  i forgot to aim at the BH target ;D. Thanks |
