Traditional BH Q:

I accidently ordered some Magnus traditional broadheads and am wondering if I should use the glue-glue inserts or put them to the side and order the proper threaded broadheads?

Arrows are a new batch of GT 3555 Exp Hunters and have not tuned them to the bow.  The BH's are 125gr and I have some 125gr field tips as well... The insert weight, if needed, will be determined by bare shaft testing.

Bow is a Hoyt GM2, 50lb at 28" and also have a set of 45lb BM med carbon limbs for it.

Threaded inserts work and tou should just use then. you can get them in steel and brass I think.

James,I personally like to buy the glue ons.They give you the possibility of more weight variations.You may find that you need more head weight than anticipated.With a glue on,you can use aluminum adapters or 3 different weight steel adapters.You can even fine tune the weight by adding lead birdshot,inside the ferrule,ahead of the adapter.

I also like to orient all my broadheads the same on each shaft so I can do this when glueing the adapter though you can also doit it with the insert.You do have to make sure the broadhead tips are perfectly aligned to spin true.
