broadheads and fieldpoints

Are all broadheads and field points the same thread pitch, when they talk about 11/32 ect... is that the diameter of the field point or broadhead and if your arrow is a 11/32 are you then required to buy 11/32 broadheads or fieldpoints.

Re: Arrow Weight Question

shooting 413 grains, gt laser 2, 100 grains field points.brass inserts, 2" group at 50 yards with slight wind, about 300 fps. new to this bow hunting so invested alot of time checking what the experts had to say. like boo said, if you have confidence in your equipement you will shoot accordingly.

Re: great forum, new vortex

thanks for the welcome. just wondering why shooting at deer at 40 or 50 yards is not a good idea. when target shooting with bow I can place a 2" group at 40 and 50 yards with sling as brace and on one knee as rest (this is what I used to do with my 7MM mag at up to 300 yards.) I have shot deer ...
