May be a sight window issue.

maybe they just tune different and the effective arrow spine is different due to the different head shape

Maann, never had a problem with WW's shooting, some of the best bh's out there, shooting through trad gear or wheelie bows. Check out rest of bow also.

If your bow is tuned....and arrows spin true...all bheads should fly to same spot even with a 50 grain swing at 20 yards.

I have found the same results as both Charlie and Terry had comunicated.

Kind of been quiet about it since I didn't know this experience was widely shared.

If your arrow is bare shaft tuned to @ least 25 yards and well centered w/i the nice flight range, you have much more lattitude.

Here's my question: if you have a BH that shoots well for you, why change? And PS Woodsmans fly fine out of any bow I've ever shot them with, provided the arrow is tuned correctly.
