Equipment requirements


As a Bowhunter the most important consideration of your equipment set up is Broadhead tuning. If your broadhead tipped arrows are not correctly tuned to your bow, you will not achieve the desired accuracy.



For those considering attending an IBEP course here is a good tutorial on building an arrow to achieve same point of impact for field points and broadheads. It also walks you through the shooting test you will be required to complete.
