Never mind I'm thinking of movements for nocking points. Lol

Lol....no worries. Thought I was losing my mind.

How did you do?

[growalot]

That's why I always shoot one of the new broad heads in practices way ahead and save a new one from the previous year...just in case ...Good Luck with it

Make sure also your knock point has not moved, and you arrow is square to bow ,, This just happened to my sons bow and was shooting just as you described..

UPDATE:

So, thank god that the solution wasn't too complex with a day left til bow season.

My GRim Reaper mechanical broadheads have a grove where the blade folds in. In 2 of the 3 groves, there was a tiny bit of foam crammed in from my target. It was causing the blade to not completely fold in and "latch"

The 2 blades were flying to the target just soooo slightly open causing erratic shots. I cleaned them out and they patterned great and the same as my field tip.

I almost didn't see it they were so small, but thankfully I did.

Back to hunting now!

Always test all your hunting arrows. Every dozen I ever owned there is always one that flys different than the rest. Just shooting them with filed tips will show you if one is off compared to the others. Then I test them with a broadhead later on. Why take the chance of an erratic arrow flight and miss an oportunity on a deer of your dreams. Glad you found the problem before the season started and go tit taken care of.
