I tryed a diffrent arrow today and the slick tricks flew GREAT!!  So i went to XXX archery today and talked to them. maybe to heavy of a spine first time around.  so we re-tuned and my bow shoots great!  i actually robin hooded 2 arrows today on at 30 an one at 25 so i guess I'm shooting better spendy but better.

Good to hear things worked out. Now you should be able to shoot just about any BH you want. Poor tuning is probably the biggest cause of accuracy issues. Learn to do that and you should always enjoy good shooting.

Best of luck you this season!

Glad to hear Cory has you shooting well.  However, make sure you do some shooting in the wind and rain before heading after the hairy creatures.  You are shooting a rather heavy arrow which usually means some FOC issues with todays more popular broadheads including Slick Trick.  FOC and straight fletch are the two biggest mistakes guys are making with broadhead tipped arrows today.  Shooting in the wind and rain will reassure you performance in the field will remain consistant.
