Your most consistent flying Fixed head?

[Coastiehunter2]

Slick trick standards for me fly like darts.

I’ve tested a lot of heads at long ranges. The most forgiving heads at 100 yds have been: ATACs and Iron Wills for multi blade and Bishop Scientific Methods for a 2 blade single bevel.

I’ve watched majority of your videos and you seem to shoot all the broadheads well out to 100!

It might be best to ask the question this way: "If you had to put down $1000 and then had to put three consecutive fixed blade BH arrows into a 6" circle at 100 yards to get your money.......what BH would you choose?"

That would be a Ramcat Single bevel. It would not likely end up being the broadhead I would hunt with though.

Soilds, 100 grains, .5 bleeders. I take cash or a good check.

Well, I have better days than others Thank you for watching! But I can tell when they’re really forgiving and when they’re not. Some of them cause me to have to really really watch my form, while others really do seem to fly like field points.

I've been waiting for some sort of competition with this type of thing, but I never seem to find any. Would love to do a 3D tourney with fixed BH's with all targets from 50-100, with the same designations and restrictions as regular 3D.....bowhunter class, etc.

When I tune my bow to perfection.....I can get any one of 1/2 dozen heads of the same weight to fly to the same POA.

if your BH's aren't grouping....its either 1) Form, 2)Bow tuning....or 3) your arrows aren't assembled perfectly straight

Sure, but some heads are just different. That's why you have to tune to whatever you plan on using. I posted a few years ago about having 9 different 125gr fixed blade BH's all hitting the same 3" bullseye as FP's at 60 yards, yet when I screwed on a regular Slick Trick they were 6" low every time. Very consistent, just low. And at that point my question became "what really is tuned", and now just tune for the least forgiving head I shoot.

QAD Exodus for me. Got onto them a few years back, they definitely live up to the hype.

How do you sharpen the tip of the broadhead?

I have yet to rework a tip. One head I remember re-using, but replaced blades. Others just needed blades touched up. I've yet to hit one that buggered the tip up.

They have them, Randy Ulmer shoots in them all the time. It's why he designed a mechanical BH. Fixed blades are not near as accurate or forgiving at long distances.

I was thinking more along the lines of after you’ve shot the broadhead into foam many times, do you touch up the tip? Or is the tip not meant to be overly sharp?

I've heard that before, but I've never seen any details on such a thing. If that's why he designed a mechanical head (to shoot in these tourneys), then they aren't fixed blade BH shoots and they might as well be shooting FP's.

He wrote an article about it a couple years ago. It is the only competition he shoots anymore. I think their shots start around 100 yards and ho out from there.

I don't have a good answer for you there. I usually shoot practice tips all summer, single shot at a time no groups. The week before season, i shoot with my practice broadhead into a target taped to 3 straw bales placed end to end, making sure I'm hitting same as i do with field points. I repeat this(single shot for each pin and gap), and ive always hit the same with exodus as my practice tips. So my practice shots with broadhead is about 10-12 a year into a straw bale. For what is worth, the tip on my practice head is still pretty sharp.

That's all fine and dandy if you can get your sight set up for that, and are a heck of a distance estimator at long range. I could see a lot of misses......unless they're all known yardage. There's no way I could get my hunting setup to start at 100 and go out from there. I'd need to drop 100+ grains on my arrows.

Might could put a pin on the end of your stabilizer, lol.
