    I'm having an issue tuning my broadheads.
    Regardless of any adjustment I do there always 4-6 inches to the right of the fp's.
    I've tried different arrows, different fletching orientation, different brands of broadheads, turning the bow down. Moving the rest just moves both the broadheads and field points the same distance.
    The broad head arrows are entering the target nock left of head.
    I've even tried moving it opposite of what you would.
    Fmj's 340 with the setup below, with montecs and exodus.
    Prior to my adjustments today the bow was paper tuned.
    Using expendable heads is not an option.
    I'm stumped any ideas?

    Follow nuts&bolts posts to a T. Got my faktor turbo shooting lights out. Bareshaft with fletched to 50 yards. Broadheads dead on. Bow is shooting better than ever. http://www.archerytalk.com/vb/showthread.php?t=2312775&page=2

    Have you spin tested your BHs? If the inserts aren't square, it'll be nearly impossible to get them to fly straight.

    Yep, 2 Exodus and 1 Montec . On any combination of 6 arrows. All spun perfect.
    Tried again this morning after being rested and less frustrated.
    Same deal, field points touch each other at 20 yards , broad head dead level with field points 4 inches right. Broad heads will group together , montecs and Exodus.
    It's so consistent that I can tell where the broad head is going to hit in relation to the FP that I could mark the target where I expect it to go.
    Moving the rest just moves everything the same.
