    I switched from 4" dura vanes to the said quick fletches. My dura vanes shot spot on with both broad heads and field points. After the switch my BH group low left of my FP which are still dead on. There is no clearance issues and my form doesn't change. I can make the adjustments but wanted opinions on if this sounds like a tuning issue or something with the new fletches.

    It is most likely vane size difference. My field points shot in a different spot than my broadheads so this is normal.

    No. A properly tuned bow will shoot field points and broadheads the same.

    Either move your nock down of your rest up slightly. When correct vertically, if still left, move your rest right slightly. Only do one at a time. Use the same arrow to compare field tip to broadhead flight as arrows have slight variances. Make your adjustments at your max distance to see the impact differences more easily. Don't make adjustments until you are hitting consistently as you never adjust your bow to compensate for form or aiming errors. Don't worry about your sight pins until the tune is correct. When you are finished. you will likely be able to hit the same spot with either vane and any broadhead of comparable weight.

    Once you figure it out, it is amazing how easy it is. Glad you got it.
