Practicing with broadheads ?

Thanks for the tuning info

I just change blades before I go hunting

[ShaBow]

shoot into targets all you want, for fixed blade just sharpen, for mechanical replace blades and go hunt!

Thanks grizzman. Wont lowring the poundage also change my up and down point of impact ?

Maybe but I would check to make sure the nocking point is correct first. I usually find that a simple small adjustment up or down, depending on where they hit in relation to the FPs, will do the trick.

Again, the Easton Tuning Guide has a good explanation of that on page 11.

In my opinion it is easier to get BH's to fly better with an overspined arrow rather than one that is underspined. I tend to pick my arrows that will be on the upper end of the spine chart for what is recommended. You more than likely will have to be shooting an arrow 2 or 3 times over what is recommended for spine to see problmens with tuning. A lot of the spine charts are not up to what these bows are producing in speed, energy and efficiency. Remember only make one adjustment at a time when trying to tune your bow. I would leave the weight the same and adjust the rest first and then maybe the nocking point, but that is usallly taken care off when the rest is adjusted. Make sure that every BH spins true on every shaft before you shoot and especially before you hunt, even with mechanicals. A slight wobble in the BH on the shaft will not give you true flight except out of a highly tuned rig and maybe not even then.

My BH was hitting 4 inches to the right of my FP's on my new bow. I had it paper tuned by my bowshop and threw the paper the arrow was cutting a 2" wide slit. It was terrible.

The bowshop owner tune it by moving the rest until it was tuned. I then had to move my sight to get back on target and then my BH hit within an inch of my FP at 20yds so we called it good for now.

You should paper tune your bow.

My advice and it ought to be self-evident; always either resharpen or replace the blades in your practice heads before hunting. Cheap insurance and you owe it to the animal to give yourself the best chance for a clean, ethical kill.

They are shooting 3-4 inches to the right already I can see the arrow curving to the right in flight. This is my first bow and I am new to bow hunting so I'm not sure what I need to do to get it dead on with the BH.

Don't over think this. Simply make a two line adjustment on your site cage and you should be good.

[Meatatarian]

Move it back when you go to shoot filed points only whenever that may be.
