I would like to know how everyone who uses grizzly broadheads line them up in relation to fletching and also how to keep them screwedintight just did some test shots and every time i pulled arrow out of target was quite loose ?

Back when I shot aluminum I always used glue in inserts, however for my screw in field points a little string wax on the threads did the trick.  A small bottle of thread locker (loc-tite) should solve the problem as well.

Put blue Loctite on them to keep them tight.That's important if you want the bevel to do what it does.I line mine up horizontal but I don't think it matters.

I should add,you will hear it said that shooting right wing fletch will keep points tight but I've been shooting it strictly for 8 years and they always loosen,regardless.I Loctite them all.

I use them.
RW fletch with Rh bevel.
I do line them up horizontal.
They fly great and they penetrate like no other.

I use Teflon tape on screw in points. Seems to work pretty well

Dan Landis

I use right bevel with right wing fletch for the last 7 or 8 years, never noticed mine coming loose.  Will use a little glue on mine just for insurance.

I'm shooting Tusker Concords, which are a very similar shape/size to the Grizzlybroadheads,  this year.  They're right bevel and I have them oriented almost horizontal.  They are actuallyset where they're horizontal when I have my bow canted slightly. I haven't seen any signs of them unscrewing on me, but I only shot them enough to verify my bare shaft tuning and to make sure they hit the same as my field points.

right bevel should tighten, left might loosen "tighty righty/ lefty loosey "
As we get older our bow weight goes down and our body weight goes up, One of Lifes little jokes.

That's the theory.I've shot them exclusively for 8 years and my field points at least,will loosen in 1-3 shots if there is nothing on the threads.Ashby recommended Loc Titing the Grizzlies and that was when all Grizzlies were right bevel.

I don't worry about how they are oriented, and they all seem to fly like darts!

I think as long as you are tuned up good and use a decent release, blade orientation doesn't matter that much.
For we did not follow cleverly contrived myths when we made known to you the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ; instead, we were eyewitnesses of His majesty.
