[QUOTE="SupressYourself, post: 328741, member: 340"] I'm shooting Magus Black Hornet 125 4-blades. They fly just like my field points, as did the Magus Stingers before them. In general, if your broadheads are the same weight as your field points, but don't group with them, it means your bow is not as well tuned as you think. Break out the paper and bare-shaft tune those arrows. That will tighten up your field point groups as well. The black hornets are a good solid head -- killed 1 elk and 2 deer so far, all pass-throughs -- but are not 'hair shaving sharp' out of the package, so I had to learn how to sharpen them. -- That's another thing that is often overlooked. People think because a head is new, it's sharp. Well... not necessarily. If you can't shave with them, there's room for improvement. Even if you get a pass-through, if it's not super sharp, the head could be just pushing tissue out of the way instead of cutting it. [/QUOTE]
