Check out all my Broadhead DISCOUNT CODES below:
Let's talk a bit about Broadhead Flight. Why is it so difficult to get fixed blade heads to fly well? Why do some fixed blades fly better than others? In this video, John explains a bit about how broadheads fly and why they sometimes don't fly well. And he also gives some tips on how to get any broadhead to fly well.
Even if you shoot mechanical broadheads, it's important to make sure your arrow is flying well, as excellent flight improves penetration--which is crucial with mechanical broadheads.
Follow me on Facebook & Instagram as well.
Ask any questions and make any comments you would like to.
I have also picked up a new sponsor with my top recommendation for Broadhead Sharpening. staysharpguide... The support I get for that has helped me improve my channel.

Thank you. Still learning. Have owned my SR6 two years now. Still tuning. I’ll keep at it till it’s as good as can be. I killed a nice buck in 2020 but I’m still not shooting it as well as I’d like with the time I have. I’d just like to say to those learning. Give yourself some grace and keep trying. It will get better.

I’m shooting the SR-6 also . I have 2 xpedition bows I am digging on too ! Nothing comes close to my SR-6 at long range. I’m out west , no white tails . I see guys pass on deer in the mid west that would be my buck of a lifetime here. Many tv guys say 40 yards is their limit. Some guy say 30 yards was his limit (what?!?) I saw a tv guy had a bruiser at 35 yards and he passed because it was beyond his 30 yard limit. Fish & Game law here says a legal hunting bow has to fly horizontally for 130 yards. Here the deer will stop and look at you at 65 to 80 yards , if you can’t make that shot .... you get nothing. Shoot , tune ,practice improve . Repeat year round. If you can do that you are winning !! Keep watching each shot and figuring it out. You’re doing great . God Bless your efforts !!

John, great video. One thing I'd add about broadhead tuning, you are saying to chase the field point impact with your rest. I've always found that a left nock tear will cause the broadhead to plane right. So you move the rest to the right and the field point and broadhead have the same impact.Any time I've ever moved my rest to follow the field point, they never get closer together, it just beigs the broadhead to center(like moving your sight)

I had the same problem, so I asked a tech at the bow shop I go to. He told me that one of two things could be wrong. The spine of the arrow or the tip weight. This is what I did, I went up in spine and changed the vane from a four to a three (with a "AAE Tue Helical"), which moved my foc up, and than I was able to see the change. I didn't change my point weight, but that was going to be my next thing to change if that first thing didn't work. I hope that this helps you.

Great explanation of bow, arrow and broadhead tuning. Really well done. Wish I'd have been able to watch this explanation 40 yrs ago. Would have saved a lot if time, money and frustration. Had to learn by trial and error. I hope bow hunters watch the entire video as it's important to learn this information to not only increase accuracy but also lethality. It would be nice if a hunters safety course was required for biw hunters and this video was part of the curriculum. Much of the info you presented also benifits crossbow hunters in regard to the arrows chosed and how they are set up and briadhead flight/choice. Again, really a great video

One thing I have found that greatly helps that you did not mention is nock tunning! Each arrow, just like a fishing rod, has one side that is stiffer. The vanes if commercially placed may not have the cock vane aligned with the arrow spine. If everything else is adjusted well I can shoot a field point fine but the broadhead goes 3-4" left or right. Turning the nock to align with the next vane and shoot again until you find the particular vane that puts the field point and broadhead together. More expensive high end arrows often account for this. Still I like all my vanes one color so I can nock tune and use a permanent marker to identify cock vane. The broadhead insert can be not exactly positioned to the spine so as head screws in each head has a different angle at full draw. Nock tunning just seems to help me bring broadhead and field point together for each individual arrow. Thanks for a great video.

I'm glad you brought up forgiveness in a broadhead. A lot of folks think that all broadheads are the same if your bow is properly tuned. This isn't true because no one can honestly say "I will never shoot a broadhead at an animal with less than ideal form". Even with a well tuned bow, at 300 fps, I can move a Wasp broadhead a few inches at 40 yards (right or left) just by barely changing grip pressure/angle. I've tested it and larger broadheads and less forgiving broadheads move even more with the same inputs. The slower the bow and the closer the shot the less it will matter. Also, the better you shoot the more likely you will notice a point of impact shift. So, bow tune cannot make up totally for broadhead forgiveness until everyone achieves perfect form that does not change no matter what animal is in front of you, whether you are in a tree stand or not, etc.

Agree 100% with everything except the overspined statement. Modern bows with true center shot risers and the ability to tune make over spine a non issue. You really can get optimal arrow flight with an arrow that is over spined or even off the chart over spined. Look at some of the high end target arrows and the only option for spine is super freaking stiff. Either way great content a lot of people need to watch this video!!

Doing archery deer for the first time this season. This video was helpful for me. I want to use a fixed blade because I want maximum penetration. 65 lbs 26.5 DL, I’m not producing a ton of speed, so I like the idea of a cut on contact with my set up, and also love tuning my bow. I just know that my bow tune will have to be perfect with a fixed head. Thanks for the info, and your BH reviews.

Hi John. Been lurking in the background watching your content as a 20yr shop technician. I have to say that during this particular video I found myself often finishing your sentences. My father was an engineer with NASA and I acquired some of his technical methodology, and I was a med student and phys-ed coaching double major in college. When the opportunity was presented to me 20 years ago, I opened an archery specialty store to pass along my knowledge of the technicalities of archery equipment and shooting form to others. If there are two things that I think are most often corrected at my store, the first is proper hand position on the grip of the bow to reduce "torque" which affects every aspect of how the bow transfers energy through the center of the arrow, and second is what is a properly tuned bow...or system of equipment, to maximize the ability of the bow to deliver a straight arrow. I don't have anywhere near the animals you have in my collection (yet!) as I took a less prosperous occupational path to pursue my entrepreneurial aspirations than my original course to become a physician. I do however, have hundreds and hundreds of customer pictures and stories of their accompanying adventures which I feel partial credit for :). Thanks for the video. We may differ in our choice of equipment for the job, but we concur on the methodology. I often wonder if I should've started a youtube channel for the shop some years ago when I was filming to do what you are doing, but the camera is shy when I am in front of it.

For me its all about achieving (and maintaining) that perfect paper tune. Then I can screw on and shoot anything given the weights match and the length doesn't change my arrow spine too much. Muzzy 3 blade, slick trick, T-loc, Snuffer, Montecs all group the same for me. I hunt eastern mountains so only practice to 40 yds, though. I love hearing your insight. Your experience is highly valuable to your viewers.

I have found that, the bow can be tuned perfectly, but the arrow won't be, arrow tuning is just as critical, the biggest problem is, most guys, don't know how to tune the arrow, and most Bow shops are clueless to tuning the arrow. I love that you're doing this, in the future, I would love to see a video, on each of these topics.

Great bit of advice! Thank you for sharing. I'd like to add in "nock tuning" when you're bare shaft tuning. If you twist the nock a tiny bit it'll change the angle that the arrow flies. Keep shooting and twisting the nock after each shot until it shoots straight.

I started as a kid with fixed blade broad heads some 30 years ago then switched to mechanical because they shot so much more consistent. Now I went back to fixed blade heavy single bevel that I can get scalpel sharp because they consistently do the most damage to large game. I have not been able to get mechanical broad heads to do the same amount of damage every time weather I hit bone or some other obstacle in the animal or in route to the animal it has been very inconsistent. Well tuned bow with good heavy super sharp broad heads has been way more consistent for me. Great video just wish I would have known all this 30 years ago Lol tuning my bow better would have saved me alot of money and frustration.

Noticeable difference in speed and aiming height . But I’m digging it on the range. I shoot 27.5” draw so our hunting rigs have a lot of similarities.... so I have never tried the Bishop arrows only due to the price. If I tell someone the price of those arrows, it sounds like science fiction 😅 Someday I’ll try a few. God Bless !!

Shoot any arrow with a fixed blade and rotate the nock giving each vane a turn as the cock vane and the arrow will hit 3 different spots in a triangular pattern guaranteed due to one side of the arrow being stiffer than the other!

Ok, the correction in other comment was pretty minor thing. Anyways, important subject and you did really cover all aspects of the issue. Consistent form never gets enough attention somehow. I guess it's easier to buy things than admit you are the problem. Would be actually interesting video and good to show people how poorly broadhead penetrates when it doesn't fly straight, maybe even fixed and mechanical both. Shoot them in gelatine, push the rest to side a bit and let's see the difference. There are even shops around here who'll tell you're overthinking things if you try to make BH and FP hit the same because they aren't skilled enough to help you achieve that.

I don't know if this was said in the comments, but when I broadhead tune, I start with the broadhead then field point. That way, I don't have to refletch the arrow. I always broadhead tune, even if the bow is tuned properly, that way I know if I have to go up in spine or down in spine if I can't get it to hit in the same spot.

You are backwards on your broadhead tuning explanation. If a broadhead hits to the right of your field point you move the rest to the right toward the broadhead. If the broadheads impact right that would be a left tear through paper fletch to the left tip to the right which makes the broadhead plain right of the field point. Sooo to correct a broadhead impacting right of field point you make the same correction you would for a left tear which is move the rest to the right away from the tear if it was paper and toward the broadhead if your broadhead tuning. You chase the broadhead not the filed point unless it’s a vertical issue then it’s opposite Down for high impact up for low impact

I bareshaft with a wrap and electrical tape that weighs as much as my 3 vanes wrapped on the shaft where the vane's center of mass would be at. So, the only thing changing is just removal of vanes, no balance or weight change. I only bareshaft through paper at close range and then go to broadhead tuning. I find that bareshafts at 20 or more yards are so hypercritical that you are getting more input on microform variation than you are bow tune.

It blows my mind that people can shoot 100yds with a fixed broadhead. We have variable trades where I live so only mechanical broadheads beyond 60yds.

Great video, question - when bare shaft tuning should the weight of the fletching be added to the rear of the arrow using tape to keep the arrow equal to a fletched arrow?

Mr. lusk I have a question, I watched this video in its entirety. I was intrigued when you got to the bare shaft vs. fletched flights, after that I went and shot my bow. I have only shot it with fletched arrows until just now and always felt like it shot great. I shot a bare shaft and in flight it was very noticeable that my bare shaft was far right to my fletched shaft. My bow was paper tuned at the pro shop with my fletched shafts and shot well, and my cam timing was perfect. My question to you is, can I achieve the proper bare shaft tune by adjusting the rest in the same exact way as you explained when it came to broad head tuning? Thanks for the wealth of information you consistently provide us with.

Yeah, theoretically, the bareshaft should have the same point of impact and same angle of impact as the fletched shaft. But vanes and fletching are there to make up for what's lacking in perfect arrow flight. Grip has A LOT to do with that as well. My bow is very well tuned, and my arrows are very well spined, but I have to make sure I don't get sloppy in my grip. The SLIGHTEST tweak to my grip and my bareshaft hits at a weird angle. That's why I always keep a bare shaft in my practice quiver, to make sure I'm consistent and they are flying just like my field points.

I think I did talk about helical vanes, cause that's what I use. But I don't think single beveling makes a quantifiable difference in flight, unless they're super thick blades...but maybe it does. Thanks for mentioning it.

Good question Nico. I have not found any advantage or disadvantage in flight between vented heads and non vented, all other things equal--except the non vented are quieter in flight and of course they are more durable.

They both fly very well out of a well tuned bow with a properly set up arrow. But all other things equal, a smaller cut size/surface area will typically be more forgiving. So in that sense, the Hurricane would get the edge.

Yes, for sure. And they are even improving it, from what I hear. But they hold up well. SBs are never fun pulling out of a target, but when I shot the IWs, they did fine. You can also use my discount code LUSKFIVE for Sevr targets, if you don't have one yet.

Mr. Lusk, thank you very much for this video and all the good work you do. I must however point out that to correct the broadhead/fieldpoint grouping, you would move the rest towards the broadhead, and not towards the fieldpoint. Only for up and down variances would you have to follow the fieldpoint though. Below is a link to a video that explains it the best from all I have seen. Confusing at first but it works. This concept is frustrating to the point where many people move back to mechanicals out of frustration from not getting it right. Hopefully this link helps so we all learn a bit more. Best. kzbin.info/www/bejne/mYWsYod9e6-MgK8

Hmmmm...if I changed arrows, then I find it's worth re-tuning. Mechs will usually have the same poi as field points, but if the arrow is not flying well out of the bow, that can be deceptive and hinder penetration.
