What broadhead flies best out of your Recurve?

[Brian Krebs]

With a helical twist to your fletch; and making sure that the broadheads are on straight- they should all fly the same.

I shot in broadhead tournaments with my kodiak recurve and I am satisfied that a 2 blade zwickey delta can shoot totally perfectly.

I shoot longbow now; and I still use zwickey deltas -- and love em.

Looks like broadheads are like bows every one has there favorites . Mine happens to be Magnus Stingers, they fly where I'm looking and leave a great blood trail so I guess I'm hooked on them.

Thanks everyone, I am having a lot of fun switching from a compound to recurve.

Gen273,  I knjow that feeling!  I'm shooting a Zipper 60" 50lb@27 inch.  I pull about 27.5 inches.  Trying to tune in some Alaskan Grizzly Woodies (400s). Not flying too well yet with 200 grain field points.  I've got to change some things, and may try to cut down in small increments the 29.5 inch arrows.  I've got a new string to install, etc. and then will try again with lighter points... maybe some 175 gr. tips.
I was hoping to use the Grizz El Grandes' but with a long adpater, they are 204 gr... I expect to knock a lot of that off sharpening them.

BH design is not a factor for good arrow flight,but a well tuned set up is the key.As others have already explained you have to fine tune your arrow spine to your bow weight at your draw lenght,then all the point of the same wait fly exactly the same.

textrout,, unless you really have to don't cut the shafts down anymore,, unless your tuning with one arrow and then you can finish the whole batch at the correct specs you need..

we have so many head weights along with insert weights along with point-insert weights that you should be able to tune anything,,,, grizz 400's out of 52# try to shoot a 250gr field point (125gr broadhead + 125 gr steel head-adaptor/insert) and see what happens..
