- In this video Chris Creed of Afflictor Broadheads dives into tuning fixed blade broadheads, bow setups, and arrow setups!
We have the joy of talking to customers on a daily basis and something we hear a lot is "I don't want to shoot a fixed blade because I don't want to deal with tuning it."
When it comes to broadhead flight, fixed blade broadheads do not fly any worse than mechanicals or hybrids 40 yards and in. If you are getting inconsistent flight, or your fixed blades aren't shooting accurately the chances are your bow is out of tune, or you are shooting an incorrect arrow.
The first thing to check is your bow. Your bow must be properly tuned to shoot any broadhead accurately, but especially fixed blade broadheads. The next thing to look at is the arrow. Is the arrow length correct? Is the spine correct? Are you shooting the correct weight? These are all good questions to ask yourself.
At the end of the day, inaccuracy is not caused by your broadhead, its most likely your bow! So stay tuned and you will have no issues!

I really appreciate the effort Afflictor is putting towards educating folks. Thanks Chris!!
Very Informative!
Good stuff, thanks 👍
Hey Chris thanks a bunch for the tip on helical fletchings. I couldn’t group my broadheads and field points but after watching this video and switching from 6 to 3 degree helical , bam!🎯
I came across your channel thinking I needed a different broadhead because if the broadhead flight problem. Watched what your fixed broadhead was about and it looks like a great broadhead, interested in the 180s and I would buy if I wasn’t already invested, but next season
for sure.👍🏽 keep shelling out tips and your channel and brand will grow👍🏽
Thank you so much! Glad it was helpful for you. Good luck this season!
Best heads made! Has never let me down!!
Thank you Luke!
The bow could be tuned perfectly, but if the human isn't tuned properly arrow will plane. Very complex topic here. You definitely touched on half of the issue
Very true, there are so many factors to consider.
Great video thank you... what i have recently noticed is that a 2 inch vane with my broadheads is pretty spot on ,as opposed to a 4 inch vane and the arrow goes where it wants ... im not in any way saying it will happen for everyone but for me i had a tight grouping at 30 yards with field points with 4 inch vanes , put my broadheads on ... they werent even close nor were they consistant... same scenario with 2 inch vanes and PAPAS A HAPPY HUNTER!
Good info! There are just so many variables at play. Spine, fletching, arrow lengths, weight at the nock, weights at the tip...on and on. For me, part of the fun is figuring it all out.
I have to be honest, I didn’t shoot fixed blades before because I didn’t want to “have to mess with them”
I actually shoot a 4 inch feathered helical and never had a single problem!
I'm shooting a Barnett crossbow with 20" bolts it shoot great with the field points but when I put a broadhead one it about 8 to 10 inches low but that bolts that came with the bow shoots fine but the dont have a helix twist but the ones that can with the bow are straight what's my best bet? Maybe mechanicals I'm wanting to use NAP THUNDERHEADS
You shouldn't have to worry about a helical with your crossbow bolts. With a 20 inch bolt, you should be able to find a broadhead that shoots great. My advise would to first check all of your bolts by shooting each one into a different spot on your target to make sure all the bolts are flying the same. Then take the broadhead of your choice and shoot them to see how they fly. If your broadheads all fly consistently, then make the necessary adjustments to your scope so your broadheads are spot on. If you can't get the broadheads to group then you may have other issues such as cam timing. If you are still having problems after that, shoot me an email at ccreed@afflictorbroadheads.com and I will give you some other suggestions.
@@afflictorbroadheads6259 ok thank I'll give it a go I want to shoot the thunderheads but I might have to make a switch to somthing else
Not to rag on you guys or anything but I shot a doe at 20 yards in the shoulder blade with an EXT hybrid, I pull 65 lbs and the broadhead was freshly sharpened. The arrow literally bounced off the deer, had nothing but hair and skin on the tip of the head.
That's crazy, was it 100 gr? I am a fan of heavy broadheads. Are you positive it bounced off and didnt pass through high?
Check your form!
My k2 fixed blades fly great straight out of the pack
Mine did the same!
"might have to make some micro adjustments here and there''.
That's called tuning.
Title is clickbait.
There is always fine tuning to be done. The topic relates to people blaming a fixed broadhead for poor arrow flight and saying the broadhead must be tuned to the arrow. The broadhead is rarely the main issue.
If you all haven't seen a documentary called... It's worse than you think.... By revelations of Jesus Christ ministries.... I suggest you do... All praise and glory to the most high Jesus Christ
