Never used a Dixon but have tuned my heads this way in the past. A lot of guys do not spend the time to spin there arrows with broadheads and I think they would be amazed at how tuning your heads will help arrow flight.

Thanks for the input Bownut. I bought a couple of Hoyt's for my wife and I last year. I got drawn for a couple of archery hunts this year and I can't seem to get my broadheads tuned right. I've tried doing it old school and I'm pulling my hair out trying to get two broadheads to fly alike.

I am shooting a ross cardiac 70 lbs 28" draw 5575 goldtip arrows with 2" blazer vanes, 100 grain muzzy 4 blade broadheads, trophy ridge dropzone rest and top gun 5 pin sight. This bow shoots great and is easy to tune. The total arrow wieght is around 370 grains. ;)

I use the G5 tool also. I didn't have to much problem with my heads setting flush with inserts but I started shooting Axis 400's this year and not having the insert and the head going flush to the shaft I found the G5 tool was almost a must have to get the shaft square and get the wobble out of my broadheads.

 

Butters if you have a few arrow that don't group with the rest sometimes you can rotate your nock. So say you are shooting odd vane up turn you nock so one of the other vanes is up. We have found that sometimes this will bring an arrow back into the group. Don't ask me how or why but sometimes it will work. I think it has something to do with how some arrows are made and how they flex as they leave the bow. Also I have noticed a lot of guys (especially shooting broadheads) have a bad habit of trying to watch were the arrow is going causing a bad shot. And I think making a bad shot is magnified with a broadhead on the end.

If nothing else works shoot a Rage!!LOL!! :lol: I shoot G5 Montecs myself but Rage heads fly awesome and do there job when they get there.
