Kinda. Last year I kept getting frustrated with my bow because it never would keep a steady group...dur..shooting it for hours on end was throwing it off because my arm muscles were getting tired. So this year I got it shooting good with a new hostage pro rest and have been shooting 2 shots from 20yd and 2 shots from 30yd every day and my groups have been getting better by the day. Now if I could make up my mind on broadheads and get my archery tag then Id be set.
As far as broadheads go, I want expandables with atleast 1 1/2" cut but that limits me to almost nothing besides RAGE heads, undertakers and a few others. Ive got a Glendel Full Rut target and the only thing Im afraid of if I get undertaker or rage heads is if its gonna rip the blades off the ferrule when I pull them out of the target?

My Rage heads came with a practice BH that has practice blades that simulate the closed position of the hunting blades and remain closed for easy removal .
The flight characteristics are the same as the hunting blades .
I went back to Slick Tricks though . They fly just as good as Rage heads and the blades are much tougher , easier to replace or re-sharpen .

You might want to check out G5's new Tekan. It is a 1.5" cut expandable, solid steel and also comes with practice blades.
