Title: How those broadheads shooting?
Post by: Crunchy on August 12, 2019, 03:27:24 PM: Well I went out today and shot my first round with broadheads (slicktricks). Shot better than I could have asked for. Touching arrows almost at 40 yards. Didn't have to change a thing from field points. Shot 20-50 yards. Need a little more shot discipline at 50 but arrows are flying great. How's everyone else shooting out there?

Only difference is that I shot through paper getting bullet holes. This year I never did a walk back tune and last year I did. Either way two or three more shooting sessions and I will be confident.

Title: Re: How those broadheads shooting?
Post by: Dhoey07 on August 15, 2019, 02:18:24 PM: They shot true to 60, no adjustments needed. Still seem super sharp, but Mr. RadSav was nice enough to throw in extra blades so I had two to practice with :tup:

Post by: OutHouse on August 19, 2019, 03:09:39 PM: Either I'm oldschool or too cheap to upgrade to four blade/vane arrows, but my muzzy three blades are shooting great out to 30 yards. Anyone else use three blade/vane anymore?

Post by: WapitiTalk1 on August 19, 2019, 03:21:02 PM: Been shooting the Magnus Stingers out of my Darton for a while now. They're flying like elk vitals heat seeking, clip the ear off a gnat, giving anything they hit a zero chance of survival, 100 grain missiles ;)
