I'm at a loss here guys. I'll try to keep this short, but I've got some terrible corkscrew arrow flight when I screw on fixed blade broadheads. I've tuned my bow using all kinds of methods and even when the tune seems pretty dang good, it still happens. We're talking a corkscrew that I can see vividly and pulls the arrow off POA by about a foot....at 25yds!! I've almost missed the target when holding dead center. I can screw on a NAP Killzone and get FP-like flight and I can also shoot out to distance accurately with field points (given I don't screw it up).
How I've tuned it:
- Set bow to factory measurements
- Timed/Synched with top draw stop 1/8" ahead of bottom
- Shoot through Paper
- Walkback tune
- (Attempt) Broadhead tune
Bow Setup:
- 2014 Hoyt CST
- ~74# DW
- 27.25" DL
- TT Smackdown Rest
Arrow Setup:
- 300 Spine Black Eagle Rampage @ 27.5" C2C
- 175gr Point Weight (including 75gr brass insert & 100 tip)
- (3) VaneTec Super Spine 3" vanes at RH helical (have also tried Blazers with same results)
- FOC% should be around 17%
FBBH Tried So Far:
- VPA 100gr 3-blade (vented)
- Muzzy Trocar 100gr 3-blade
- Have some Wac-Ems that I haven't tried yet, but honestly don't know if it would matter.
Archers Advantage shows my arrow to be on the "slightly stiff" side, so it can't be that, right? What else should I be looking for here?
