    Any will work as long as your setup is tuned together.

    Why take the easy way out? Find one you like and go with it even if it means you have to work a little harder to tune your bow.

    I agree with oly here. Its always better to have a properly tuned bow than to try and find equipment that will compensate for a less than tuned bow. When ur bow is nicely tuned any broadhead u choose will fly right. :)

    When you see a BH advertising "field point accuracy" it only means on a tuned bow. I've shot field tips and 3 different BH's out of my setup with the same results. Since you asked for suggestions, the 3 BH's I've shot are 3 blade bloodrunners, Killzones, and Rage 3 blade. Nothing bad to say about any of them. I just like trying new brands and types to see what the results are.

    If you don't want to tune your bow, then I would suggest this setup...

    Now we know why you are missing deer. Halfassed effort produces halfassed results.

    There are a ton of great fixed BHs out there, but no mater what he picks, his bow should be tuned in order to get the best accuracy and penetration that he can.

    I'm going to be picking up some Hellrazors this winter :tu:

    Yeah, I know, and tennis balls @ 80 yards...

    If it is tuned, than the BH choice will matter little for the accuracy of your shot.

    Now, it is possible to hit accuaratly with fieldpoints at far ranges, even if you're out of tune.

    Well julien since your brother sounds like he has little ambition to put any hard work into wanting his broadheads to fly right, i am just going to give you a suggestion and maybe he will get on with it. Try Slick Trick razor trick or Slick Trick standard, they fly pretty straight.
