    Looking for some feedback / opinions on what the best insert glue to use for indexing broadheads.

    Easton Torch is the arrow. Using a brass insert.

    The first 6 were done with the insert weld and the broadheads are not perfectly lined up with the vanes. Seemed like the glue dried instantly when I was watching it get done.

    Some people on here say indexing matters, some say it is a wives tail. My OCD trumps both of the aforementioned parties and I want them to line up perfectly so I can sleep :p;)

    My plan is to take the arrows with the off center broadheads and turn them into field points for regular shooting and then my install the BH on my remaining 6 spare arrows which are cut w/ no insert. I picked up some Insert Iron at Cabela's this weekend because it claims you have 24 hours before the glue dries and I am thinking this gives me time to set on a flat surface and adjust?

    Any advice or feedback would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

    If it's anything like the easton epoxy it has a 24 hour cure time and 90 minute working time.
