Default Broadhead accuracy

I am using the Crimcon Talon XT's this year, But for some reason they are still shooting high. I change nothing. same weight practice tips same distance elevation. My question is should i get the crimson talon turbine target tips and sight in with those.

I'm guessing your bow is slightly out of tune. Make sure the arrow is level. I would SUSPECT it's pointed slightly up.....Just slightly will be amplified w/ broadheads...

Nope my bow has been tuned multiple times.I have even had my center shot set by the local shop just to check. Dead on with target tips but i'm wondering if its because of the spinning action the curved blades.

You definately have a slight tuning issue. sounds to me like you need to move your rest up 1/32" at a time until you get you broadheads and FP grouping together. Something is def. out of tune. It could also be your form. If you are torqueing the bow at all, it will def. show when you start shooting BHs.

If they are grouping well, adjust your sights and hunt with it..

You could try moving your rest or nocking point a little so they shoot with field point, but I just practice with a couple of old broadheads and don't worry about field points...

Groups are still perfect.Just not to my standard for accuracy.
It shouldn't be my form. thats the one thing i work on the most in the off season. I also shoot indoors during off season.
I may just raise the rest a bit and adjust accordingly

Always sight in with your broadheads. Migth cost some extra cash, but we owe it to our game to be dead on and IM sure you dont want to be second quessing when that 150'' giant steps in.
Yea i completely agree with ya. Thats why right now i won't even think about taking a shot unless i threw one of the old muzzies back on.
