Sighting in Broadheads


Marshall1117

Recommended Posts

I'm behind this year due to lack of time. Anyways I have my bow dialed in with field tips, and tonight I shot my broadheads, and holy cow was the thing off! Last year I used the same broadheads/arrows bow everything. I didn't have to adjust much of anything last year. Today I was way way left of the target. My up and down were right in line with the target. What are some things that could be going wrong? Thanks for any advice confused.gif

Left to right deflection can be from arrow contact, hand torque, maybe the sight is tweaked. Did you switch back to FT's after the bad BH shots to see if everything is still aligned? I would double check that first to make sure you didn't knock something out of whack that would effect all arrows.

I would echo what powerstroke said. I know when I start getting lazy with my front hand my arrows will start to move to the left.

I thought I was doing the same as you when practicing a few weeks ago.

Problem ended up being between my ears...

After going back to field points and making good shots out to 40 yards, I went back to broadheads and I was dead on.

It was just target panic, just having the real thing on the end of my arrows I was getting excited for the upcoming season.

I'm with Power on this one... check the easy stuff first... Grip torque is the culprit many times.

      Don't take me wrong, I'm not anti-technology.  Battery powdered items will always have their place.  I'm mean you don't want your girl friend or wife in the bedroom playing for their gas powered adult toys!!  That would be a bit loud and smokey!

      That’s right. My 84 year old dad loves his electric chain saw. Light weight and quiet. Besides, at his age he’s not cutting a bunch. Where as myself I want something with more power and heavier duty.  Look at how many people have switched back to gasoline cars after running one in winter if you travel a lot.   As long as my strike master works I’ll keep using gas. Maybe my next will be electric, but who knows,  you can find used gas ones pretty reasonable as others buy electric.
