I shot both muzzy 4 blade and thunderheads...both shot about 3.5-4" low. Left and right seemed to be ok. However, I think I noticed some funky arrow flight occasionally with the muzzy. Didn't notice the same with the thunderhead.

What do I need to do?

May run up to the shop to get the inserts changed so I can try the slick tricks. Also have a couple of Rage I may try, but I swore I'd never hunt with those POS.

Your nock point is a little high. That's an easy fix. Raise your rest 1/16" at a time until they hit with the field points and sight in again.

Dang. You should have said 1/1000th. That little adjustment is sensitive.

I got it better but not exact. I think I'm going to have to take it in. The arrows seem to have a flight issue. I don't think they wiould pass a paper test.

That will affect horizontal not vertical.

10-4. I thought you were having flight issues, like the arrow fish tailing left to right headed down range.

Sometimes they will fly different. If that's the case adjust you sights for the broadheads and your field trips will just hit high.
