I have spent a couple hours the last 4 days trying to broadhead tune my bow for an upcoming elk hunt. I was planning on using Slick Trick Magnums but for the life of me I can not get them to line up with my field points at 40+ yards. At 20 they are close, at 30 they are a couple inches high, and at 40 they are 4~ inches high. So on and so forth the further I move out. I keep moving my rest down and the group is not coming together. The archery tech I've been talking to said I probably ought to just sight in for those broadheads or compensate while I am hunting. I do not want to sight my bow in for the broadheads and then have to aim at the wrong location while I am practicing (afraid it will enforce bad habits). I also don't want to compensate while I am hunting and end up forgetting and making a bad shot.
With all of that being said I've been searching online but haven't seen many reviews on the Jak Hammer 1 1/4" mechanical broadheads. Obviously they will penetrate better than the 1 3/4" model but I was wondering if anyone has any real world experience with these? I am shooting a Mathews Z7, 67lb, 28" draw, and around a 375 grain arrow (all things included) so I have decent KE but not as high as I would like to shoot a big mechanical at an elk.
If you have experience with this head would you recommend using it on an elk?
Thanks in advance,
JP
