Broadhead Tuning Questions

[JP7]

I'm working on getting my fixed blade broad heads tuned up for the season. My bow was paper tuned and sighted in, so I started shooting my broad heads. During my shooting I was hitting a little to the right (~4in), so I moved my rest to the left slightly. Since I've done that, at 50 and 60 yards, my field points seem to be hitting around 2 inches to the right, and my broad heads are also around 2 inches to the right. A few days have had a little bit of wind going left to right across the range so my questions are:

1. If I shoot with none to minimal wind and my field points and broad heads are consistently to the right should I bump my sight to the right?
or
2. Should I keep shooting broad heads and adjusting the rest to get the broad heads centered and not worry about field points until after I'm done archery season?

If your broad heads and field points are both hitting to the right in the same point of impact, just move your sight in a little and you should be good.

agree 100% ! Google this: Maximizing your hunting accuracy John Dudley. You will find an article John Dudley wrote on this. He addresses your question exactly.

RosinBag is correct. The goal of moving your rest is to get the broadheads and field points to hit the same spot. Then you move the sight to have that spot be the bullseye.
