Over two yrs old...and still as informative. You can tell you are a teacher. Simple explanations....as to 'why' you tune this way. If there is one thing I have learned. My arrows are not tuned well. this season took on a completely different 'tune', When my Daughter asked to go hunting with me.....That is a Good thing
I absolutely love the oldschool mixed with newschool setup. If it ain't broke dont fix it
Your approach to broadhead tuning is exactly the same as mine. Good Job.
Thanks, you just saved me unnecessary messing around. Great video.
Hey Nate You gave me the fixed blade bug. Your persuasion is contagious lol. I started using them last season with noticeable results. Thank you buddy.
Personally, i bare shaft tune my arrows, then nock tune and finally paper tune, just how i do it. Sometimes my fixed blades group with my fieldpoints, but this year with a new batch of arrows my blades are hitting low. I know it is awesome and super efficient when your fixed blades and field points hit the same mark, but for me I just don’t care. I want a perfect bullet hole, and all of my arrows to group with each other. I live in africa and shooting from springbok to eland, we need good accuracy, as shots can go out to 55yards.
Great job, not over thinking it too much.
Your vids have taught me bulk thanks man
What arrow set up would you use for big boars in
Australian gulf country
I like 450 and up for thick skinned critters. Fixed blade all the way for added assurance.
You are correct sir. A Properly tuned bow is the very important first step.. And I find that the Magnus BH's fly superb and right along with my field points using 4 fletched Blazers with the vanes and the 4 blades tuned to a perfect inline "X".
SoloCamXT Outdoors You're one of the people that convinced me those 1.25" monsters could fly right before I bought them! Now I have 5 packs between the straight and serrated versions. Haha!
Very nice.. Glad I could be of service.. They are vicious. And Mike from Magnus sent me some slightly modified Black hornets last week to try out and give my opinion. But they are not advertised yet so I under strict instructions not to put them on the web..lol. They are basically the same head but just a little more eye catching..
Lucky dog!!!
I was pretty humbled that they would reach out like that.. Great company
Thanks for the video. Very informative. What are your thoughts about shooting a 4-5" feather out of a compound? Would the added fletching help with broadhead tuning?
Definitely wouldn't hurt!
If your bow is really tuned and you have the spine arrows you will not NEED 4-5" feathers. Unless you just want to use them for whatever reasoning. Doesn't matter what head you use- 2 blade fixed, 4 blade fixed, mechanical will fly just fine. Assuming you have at least good form. GOOD LUCK!!!
Hey, love your videos, they're very informative! I was just at the archery shop yesterday and they were telling me the importance of tuning your broadheads. However, all the archery ranges around me don't allow broadheads. Where do people go to tune their broadheads?
Mostly, people buy their own target for broadheads. Sometimes, if your club has an outdoor range, they'll offer a few weeks before season to setup broadhead specific targets.
BLM land is a perfect choice.
Ty for this man keep em coming!
i realize it's kinda randomly asking but does anybody know of a good website to watch new movies online?
@Phillip Gage Flixportal =)
@Danny Bishop thank you, I signed up and it seems like they got a lot of movies there :D Appreciate it!
@Phillip Gage you are welcome xD
Great video sir !!!! Was wondering if you could do a review on the Annihilator broadheads by chance thank you again sir and great vids !!!!
Is it necessary to align you're broadheads with you're fletchings? Cause I have seen people do it. I'm just wondering if it is required.
I personally am a believer in it, but others will claim it's unnecessary. Of course if you shoot a 2 or 4 blade head, aligning the blades to match 3 fletchings isn't mathematically possible. :) In that case I align the head so the blade is parallel to the riser when the arrow is nocked onto the string.
@@averagejackarchery What are the different methods of how to align you're broadheads and which one is you're favorite? Thanks so much!!!
@@averagejackarchery People need to understand that it's not so much about aligning the blades with the fletching, it's about having all of your broadheads aligned identically. You want to have each broadhead catching the air the same way as they leave the bow.
@@averagejackarchery how do you make this happen if the inserts don't screw in the exact same?
Yup thats how I pretty much tune my bolts and arrows too. Get them in the same grouping and its perfect. I know many people tinker with it and i just cant see the value in it in hunting situations. Long range target archery and Olympic archery. Tinker away. Hunting i cant justify it.
Have you ever used the DRT dirtnap broadheads, single or double bevel? What did you think of them?
I haven't!
Great tips on shooting broadheads. Where at in Pa are you? I'm in Pa too.
Andrew Brooks I hunt in the Clearfield and Centre counties.
Average Jack Archery that's cool. On on Lancaster and I've been to Clearfoeld Co for hu ting before.
Question I'm new to archery this year. I have done everything you mentioned in this video and all fall had my broad heads and field points hitting well. I bare shaft tuned them originally. Good flight and all out to 40 yards +. recently in the off season I worked on the bow and found my center shot was out of line about 1/8 in to the right. So I recalibrated that and set my notch point slightly above level. Field points now fly just as good but broad heads fly way low/ right with a fishtail. Wondering why I have to set my rest so far right to get good broadhead flight. I'm left handed using a wisker biscuit black hornet see razor heads duel cam split yoke bow 55lbs 28in draw. The only thing that seems slightly off is my bottom cam stop hits slightly before my top cam. I hope I explained that ok I've learned a lot this year from your vids. Thanks

@Jimmi Jams Yep. Simple answer for the guys that don't know how to tune their bows.
I got a question for you, you can make a video on this if you want. If your upper body is 30 feet in air up a tree, the deer is 4-6 yards away, pretty much right under you, where on the deer do you hold your 10/20 yard pin? With that angle of shot, where through the deer does the arrow need to go? I've heard you need to hold your pin off the bottom of the deer a little, Is this true?
Eagleclawswoop Driver Great question! I might have to make a video on that! The best way to find out is take your treestand in the woods along with you bow and target. Give it some shots and see where your bow puts them. Everyone's bow shoots differently, so it's best to know exactly what yours does.
Eagleclawswoop Driver aim for your exit point on the animal. It will facilitate the entry
owl tune ok that interesting, thanks for your help
Your arrow arch at a downward angle depends on the angle you're aiming. If you shoot straight down no matter how far down your arrow is going to go, you don't range that shot Because gravity is pulling your aarow in the direction you intended it to go in the first place. So if you're shooting 6 yards away from 30 or 100 yards up your aarow will still only have 6 yards of drop maximum. Since your arrow is going down it'll actually have less drop than if you shoot it at 90° paralelle to the ground. So for a 6 yard shot from 30 feet up you really only need to range it at 5-6 yards. If you range it at 10 yards your arrow is going to end up 8 yards out past your target.
Michael Homer thanks alot for that response, I dont have a range finder. I can tell this is a real problem, I feel like I need to climb a tree and practice shooting 5 yards from the base of tree, however I dont have a 3D deer target which is another problem, I cant hunting hoping always for a perfect 15 to 20 yard shot, sometime I'm going have a deer below me and I want to be ready.
Could anyone recommend a seperate quiver for broadhead arrows? Or should I definitely go for the quivers attached to the bow? Are all bow quivers on a bow suitable for broadheads?

I've used one similar to this for close to 10 years
i'm Canadian, and you seem way too polite. sorry if i offended you...............................................again, sorry.
Well I try to be as cordial as I can to everyone! But I have my lapses. ;)
@@averagejackarchery I'm also Canadian, just wanted to apologize for his comment. Sorry about that.
Im not Canadian... Sorry boot that
@@bugmouthready529 that's Newfie talk, not Canadian.
breathe and squeeze ahm um sorry...
Did not think anyone still used aluminum shafts.
There super deadly if u can get them in tune and shooting well
Still useimg xx75

Why do you prefer fixed blades
A lot of reasons but here are my top 3:
1. Thicker, beefier ferrules and blades.
2. Cut on contact design
3. No o-rings, rubber bands, or moving parts to fail. Open and cutting 100% of the time.
Great question!
What brand arrows are those?
Does moving my arrow rest to tune a broad head alter the point of impact with my field tips?
It can, and often times will, yes. Always move your rest towards your broadhead (at least that's how I've always done it.) Shot today with some Magnus Black Hornet Ser Razors, and at 60~yds they almost touch my FP.
Well done.
What is the logo on your T-shirt
Maven Optics!
How do you size fletching to broadheads?
Pretty much any standard fletchings on the market will steer any broadhead being produced. So shoot the vanes and heads you like!
@@averagejackarchery Thanks!
When you hate re-fletching your arrows so you purposely blunt your broadhead before broadhead tuning so those vanes won't get cut...
What maven binos are you using?
My entire comprehensive gear list is in the description of each video. But to simplify, I really like the C.1 10x42. Fit my needs for the PA whitetail and turkey woods really well!
Average Jack Archery thanks
U better tune each b.h.!!!! You can have a perfect arrow flight with one, then have another one shoot 8" off!!!
I agree not tuning for exact flight and moving sights to compensate for lack of complete tuning is just not being responsible to the animals you are hunting
What broadhead is that in the thumbnail?
That is an Afflictor 4 Blade fixed head.
@@averagejackarchery thank you, God bless!
Good arrow I think
Heh looooow everyone. hahahahahahaha love this guy
hulow everyone.
I agree to disagree... I like to see all of my arrows fly like bullets regardless of what's on the end.. Is it a pain in the butt? yep.. Does it take a ton of time? Yep.. But I know whenever I pull it back on an animal I can pick out a hair behind it's front leg and that's where it's going ;). I'm just OCD and I enjoy the torture.
Shoot just like field points allabout.wiki/7ulz Devestating wound channel, lots of blood, super sharp blades. I can't imagine I will shoot anything else again. I love these
Mediocre tuning , do it right once and get your Broadheads and field points hitting the same it isn’t hard just follow the Easton tuning guide
Well thats one way of tuning, there are a couple ways for that.
I agree you need to tune your bow and arrows until your broadheads and field points are hitting in the same spot. Moving the sight means you are not tuned
i do not agree with this at all and new bowhunters should stay clear of this kind of tuning for hunting.
Horrible tips
I agree
