I've been using the Beman MFX micro diameter arrows with hidden inserts. Maybe I drank the kool aid but I think this really helps with broad head alignment. My G5 Montecs hit right on with my field tips. And talk about devastating penetration.

Ya good tips.  I dont know but im thinking about all the advice, thanx.  Uh I dont have problem target shooting, only on animals.  I can and do follow arrow thru shot and see it drop in front of animal and hit below belly.  Im wondering if i punch the trigger a bit, I also changed to equalizer bone collector hook release last year.  I know I am always nervouse the animal is going to move and I will lose shot ever since an elk stepped as I shot and I hit too far back?  Can trigger punch cause a low shot? I shoot targets well and only had the buck fever one time shooting at bear.

I've had my Z7 for a couple of years.  I have the Trophy Taker drop away,  Beman ICS hunter elites with Blazers  &  G5  Stryker broad heads  100 gr.   I couldn't be happier with broad head flight or accuracy .  They do whistle as they go down range, so far hasn't been a problem with animals.

You are probably dropping your bow arm to see your arrow...

I must say I am liking these 350maximas with 125g tips.  My arrow weight is 430 and foc is way better and flight is great at 60-70yard shots.  40yard groups seem improved about 1 inch at 4inch grouping now!

You know I think your right!!! :tup: Never thought of that.  I really think I am because i worry about animal moving and seeing my arrow to verify a good shot. Thanks guys.  I need to concentrate on proper follow thru when hunting and not worry about seeing arrow so much.  I think this eye surgery presented more issues than I thought as it was a dramatic change. 90second laser as my eyes were bad.  The recovery with eyes constantly changing /healing lead to me developing bad habit.

Might want to clarify that :dunno:  Shooting Shuttle-T's one might think you shot it on the 22nd and it ran until the 25th before falling over :chuckle:

I saw that deer in the emergency room waiting for stitches and birth control!!!  He was behind a bunch of illegal immigrants!  That was on the 24th, must have denied him for being american or something? :chuckle: :chuckle:
