I've never lined up my broadheads to my vanes...big waste of time IMHO.

Lining up vanes wid blades is a waste of time & orings ain't needed if'en yer arrows be fletched right fer fixed bladed BH's

Go with the AZ bolt jig for blazers and leave the rest behind. I've robin hooded arrows at 60 with bolt cutter's out of stock firebolt's and a 200 lb. excal. No tuning required, inside of 50 it's a chip shot. :roll: :roll:

Spin test them to make sure everything is straight and then have at it. They should shoot very well for you,mine do.
