Accurate fixed blade broadheads

[Trial153]

But point of impact difference can absolutely be engineered out, leaving only me and the dispersion of the broadheads to blame for group size/effective range.

However two different broad heads will have different group size post engineering as you put it. So when the op asked which broadheads are the most accurate, and guys come on here and say they all are all same is ignorant and disregards studies/ testing that show otherwise.

Big facts

The notion here that if a guy elects to shoot a mech is because he can’t tune a bow couldn’t be further from the truth.

I shoot much better than your average bear. I broadhead tune with fixed heads out to 80 yards, but I hunt with mechs.

All else equals, mechanicals are more accurate when you’re at your worst. In my experience (over 100 big game animals with a bow and arrow), you’re at your worst in hunting situations. You don’t lose animals because of broadhead selection, save water buffalo. You lose animals because you make bad shots. Mechanicals are more accurate, there’s no two way about that.

I am assuming you are referencing my comment of getting many to tune fine. I never said that all fixed heads "are all the same"

In fact, I said that the low profile heads do make it easier to tune- which is common sense.

I get that there is a lot of bias to whatever head design a guy shoots- insulting a guys BH choice is worse than insulting his wife. Grin

It's been my experience that many claim some of these fixed BH's won't tune....and it's only because THEY can't do it.

I kind of do the same. When I tune to 60, they might be just a hair low at 80, but they're good left and right. But I have both fixed and mechanical in my quiver usually.

You need to separate tuning from accuracy. They are not one in the same. In fact you're missing the point of the question entirely.
Place two different broad heads on the same arrow shot from the same bow with no human variables and you will get two difference group sizes a given distance. The heads themselves have different displacements due to their tolerances, and aerodynamic properties ie design.
In fact you can shoot two differently designed field points and they, at a distance will have a measurable difference in displacement, it may not be a lot but it will be different.

SO yes some broad heads are inherently more accurate that others. It has zero to do with tuning.
