Skipper nailed it with a good story of something he had seen first hand. NO top tuner (NONE) or Top shooter (NONE) paper tune their bows. Flight tuning is the perfect tune and nothing can improve on it. You are spot on. Have a beer , relax and be happy  Thank God   |

If you're hitting left, move the rest right....but at 1-2 ", 1/64 should do it. Move it extremely slight!!  Well this seems to have done the trick. I moved the rest two clicks to the right and the 85gr Stinger is dead center, but the field tips are grouping right. So I moved the sight to the left and the field tip group centered. Now I shot the broad head and low and behold it's right with the field tips { I had to run, so I could not shoot too many groups to confirm, but I'm pretty sure this is the case}. Now my question is, by moving the rest to the right am I going to get a nock right tear on paper and loose my tune? After a more extensive test, the broadheads went back to being 2" left from the field tips. I am resigned to the fact that I cannot get fixed blade broadheads to impact the same spot as my field tipped arrows  Im either going to use Spitfires or just resight before hunting season and shoot just fixed blade broadheads. |

I fletched an arrow with 4" feathers and I want to see if this would do a better job of steering a fixed blade broadhead. I shot the 85gr. Stingers and low and behold I was dead on with my field points out to 45yrds. Then I screw the Stinger on an arrow with Blazers {my normal fletch} and it's dead on also WTF? I must be torquing the grip or something, because I would have sworn they were flying to the left...I think I just shoot like crap  Im going to shoot the Stinger each day and see if it's sensitive to torque; If so I'm probably better off with the spitfires..time will tell  |

Dis you try rotating your nock? You shouldn't have much of a problem with a stiff side on the cx shafts but it might help. Maybe some nocks are aligned correct and some aren't. I know on the axis shafts it made a huge difference.

I changed my grip. It seems my old grip was causing erratic flight. Now all my 85gr. heads fly well. Montec, Stinger, Sonic all group with field point  I'm still going to watch them and then decide which on to hunt with. I still might go with the Spitfire but I at least have options now |

I would have assumed (my bad) that the grip was fine.
What was the problem?

To tell the truth Im not sure, I seems I had my whole hand wrapped around and I guess it was enough to send the broad heads off target. Im holding with just the index and thumb and flight is fine. I did nothing to the bow itself. Its either my grip or im a mental case ;D Or both |
