Broadhead problem

[DoubleJ]

OK, I'm on my 5th set of broadheads and none of them are flying right.  What else could be the problem?  My field points are dead on.  I spin test every arrow after putting on a BH and they are good.  I've tried Muzzy 3 blade 100 gn and 125gn, Magnus stingers 100gn and 125gn, and NAP Hellrazor 100gn.

What the hell?  I'm not made of money and can't keep going through brand after brand.  There has to be something else going on.

Shooting an Archery Research AR-34 set at 28" draw.  Have had it set from 40lbs all the way up to 67lbs.  Everytime I change a draw weight (due to shoulder injury, I've had to go from heavy to lighter), I've had it tuned.  I'd blame the arrows except, like I said, field points hit within an inch or 2 at 20 yards.  BH go low/right, low/left, high/center, completely missing the target, and all points in between.

Arrow spine?

[NWWABOWHNTR]

WHat spine arrows are you using and at what draw weight?  ALso, what length are they?  Here is what I would do...

Using field points, shoot a group at 20 yards, then shoot 2 bareshaft arrows and see where they hit in comparison to the fletched arrows (make sure you use field points!).  This will tell you if your arrows are spined correctly for your bow.  Tuning the bow is important but have the corretc spined arrows is also very very important.  Incorrectly spined arrows will show more of an issue with BH's....

I would shoot at more than just 20 yards also. A shop tuning a bow usually just gets you in the ballpark. The further you shoot the more you are going to see how far off the bow is. Use your field tips from 20 out to 60. Once they are on then start tuning the broadheads.

Right now, it's at 67lbs and arrow spine is .400 on 26" shafts.  Broadheads are dead on from 10 yards to 50 yards.  With points, they don't wobble in the air, just spin.  With the BH, they wobble and the ones that hit the target often hit at an angle

Start by shooting it through paper , you need to be the one aswell to be sure its not a grip or punch thing , at 67 lbs and 28 draw you would have to be shooting a real light arrow to not have enough spine , so my guess is tune , also a four fletch blazer vane should stear any broad head out there, good luck .

I agree but first he should try bareshafting at 20... just to make sure the arrows are correct for his bow.... need to eliminate the arrow kick before you try any more distance.

Do you have overdraw and if so, how many inches? With no overdraw, 380-420 is correct spine for a 26" arrow at 67 lbs draw. You're right in the ballpark. Have you let someone watch your form? Have you paper-tuned?

Its a tuning problem not a broadhead problem.

I believe that at 67 lbs. a 340 spine is better suited for  a 26-29 inch shaft.
