    broken arrows. This is getting costly at $10 an arrow and in today's case a $7.50 nockturnal lighted nock. also figured out I bought the wrong weight BHs. I only caught this after shooting them and then trying to figure out why that one kept hitting low. If I shoot the 125grs w/o the nockturnal its still a kill at 20 yards. with the nockturnal it was 8" low at thirty. soooo, I either suck it up and buy another pack of 100gr or i don't use my lighted nocks on three of my arrows.

    I think I would return them and get some in 100 grain. Your using 100 field points so I would stay consistent.

    I shoot one arrow at each dot on the target when I'm using BH's, I could care less about grouping as long as i can put a stick where I intended to. I generally only shoot a max of three FP's at one dot as well cuz i get tired of having them refletched.
