hi guys, i dont get that in the broadhead tuning guide when youre trying to get youre b heads and field points to shoot the same it tells you to adjust youre nocking point and rest. Now ive done what it says and what is happening is this: Up/down flight of heads is good but left/right isnt, my broadheads are going left so i move my rest in towards my bow as the tuning guide says and as i would expect my f/points shoot further to the right and my b/head move right but still the same distance away from the field points. no matter how far you move the rest the heads are going to be the same distance appart.
Do i just forget about trying to get them shooting in the same place and just move my sight accordingly or is there something im missing.
My arrows are correctly spined, the 3 bladed b/heads are the same weight whats going on?

Im not much on the tuning part but broadheads are different for the fact they have blades and will be affected by the mind in a big way both wind blowing on the b'head and the b'head cutting through the air during flight.

you may have to change the weight of either your f/points or broadheads. When i use lighter f/points than what my bows tuned for the arrows impact left... i'm dont know why, because changing that should change the spine which should change the up/down impact and not the left/right impact.
But you shouldnt really have to do that because then you change the up/down impact at longer distances because of the change in overall weight of the arrow.

But if you cant figure out what to do then just leave it because you should never be using broadheads and f/points at the same time (apart from tuning), so before you go hunting you can just shift the sight accross a little and before you do anything with f/points you could just shift it back...

How are you arrows fletched?

What rest are you using?

What happens if you move the rest a little to the left?
