yeah i am not sure on that. my local pro shop carries them and says they are legal to hunt with here. but any blade like the magnus buzz cuts are legal the blades to do have to be strait. they can be serrated

If you want to get your broadheads to fly like your field tips you have to do 2 things.  1...tune your bow to do so.  I have been shooting and tuning my own bow for several years and only ventured into this last year (trying to get broadheads to shoot the same as field points) and it took a bit of tweaking with the nock point and arrow rest.  However they both hit the same from 10 yards out to 100 and I am sure beyond if I was to try.  2....spin your arrows and make sure that your broadheads are properly aligned.  If you do both of these things you will hit the same spot with both points.  I am sure enough on this information for you that I am willing to bet my bow that I can take the cheapest broadheads from wal-mart and make them hit the same spot as the arrows with the field tips!  Best of luck!

I agree with fishwhacker.  I've used many different types of broadheads.  If your bow is tuned properly, they will hit the same point of impact.  However, I have found some are less prone to other factors.  Currently, I use 125gr Magnus Buzzcut 4 blades and G5 Strikers.  As long as the bow is in tune, they both stay on target and have exceptional penetration.  Complete pass through on Elk, deer and bear for the past several years!

Well - for once I get to give input on this subject.  I had my bow tuned this year and changed rests by Whitetail plus in Deer Park with alwinearcher's help.  This is the first year that I didn't have to make adjustments to my sight, rest, nock point or otherwise.  I am so elated that my field points and broadheads are hitting in the same spot.  The guy running the bow still has some practice to do, but 3-4 inch group at 40 yards with broadheads is better than I have ever done in the past.

You are all right, I had to read it a couple times. But you are right serrated is good to go.  Sorry for my confusion. 


It is unlawful to hunt big game animals with
a broadhead blade unless the broadhead
is unbarbed and completely closed at
the back end of the blade or blades by
a smooth, unbroken surface starting at
maximum blade width and forming a
smooth line toward the feather end of the
shaft and such line does not angle toward
the point.
