If you really want to determine what it is, bareshaft tune. That will show all your problems imediately. Its what i do as a fine tuning method. I was shooting great, and my bheads were shooting ok, but after i bareshaft tuned my bheads shot perfect.

I am in the same boat as you Nubo. I bought a new switchback xt this year and I can hit an orange at 50 yards with field tips. I put the broadheads on and am getting a 12 inch group at 30 yards. Mine are numbered and some hit left, some hit right, and others everywhere else. My arrows range from 200 -500 shots each. I guess I could have worn some out. I am in the process of weeding out flyers to get a tighter group. I need 3 good arrows, but want 6. I use goldtips with muzzy heads. This has worked good for 8 years. At least the good news is that I am headed out after elk in less than 2 weeks. I think that is good news.

Sorry, had to ask, as I read the entire thread again, and didn't see it. What kind of fletching are you using? Arrow rest? Do you use the MZE? It still sounds like it is mostly an arrow problem, unless you are getting fletch contact, or are shooting straight fletch or something.

From shooting my Slick Tricks and comparing the flight and point of impacts with great results and accuracy,, I'm wondering if you might have broadhead panic
