Anyone use em ? Been using slick tricks, just looking at tryin something different.
My tricks fly good , but not exactly like my field points. No matter what I do the closest I can get em is with 2" .

tricks are pretty accurate heads.. Surprised you are having trouble. Are the broadheads spinning good?

When all the rave came out about them I tried em also.... I couldnt get them to group consistenty enough for my liking past 40 yards. I ended up putting in g5 Montecs and got great groups out to 80 yards

My cousin used to shoot wac'ems. He liked em a lot.

Is steel force still making the phatheads? Those are some mean little heads and they always flew great for me. I don't think I have a complete set of them left or else I'd let ya have them.

Not sure about the phatheads. They always flew good . I think I've got a couple somewhere but i like using replacement blade heads.
The tricks group great just a little lower .

Jake, IMO, that's pretty close where you want to be anyway. Hunting from an elevated level or tree stand,a deer dropping slightly at the shot and you're better off anyway! Plus, a lower hit trumps a higher hit nearly every time unless you hit the spine. Just sayin....

Montecs fly better from Tracie's bow than Tricks. I killed my 2012 buck with a Montec and was please with how it performed. Plus they can be sharpened fairly easily.

I spent alot of time last yr tuning and adjusting the rest chasing my field point groups before finally just accepting it . Initially the broadhead groups were farther off . I haven't bothered making adjustments this yr . They fly good , just not pinpoint where my field tips hit . I ordered some wac'ems to try . Worst case I'll just shoot tricks like I have the last 2 yrs and adjust my sights to gain the last little bit I need . .

thats if you adjust it a fuzz... if its just a gnats ass it shouldn't bother it.

And that's some technical shit right there lol.....

Jake, Milo's no slouch when it comes too tuning a setup.... I'd PM or call him too get on the same page..... Just my .02 worth....

So is it a fuzz or a gnats ass? Lol

I know Milo is much better at this than me . I just don't wanna mess with to much right now . Last yr I chased my tail a bunch and never truely resolved to problem . Just wasted several evenings and caused myself frustration . Maybe tonight I'll adjust it some . But last time I got much past where I'm at now my arrows began flying erratically l. Least no its grouping well .
