Target shooting in wind could hit the target 20, 30 and 40 . No go @50 . Wind gust around 30 MPH. Arrows would fly erratic. Maybe heavier broad heads would help. I was using Victory carbon and 125 gr stingers.
 
I shot at two bucks that windy week about 3 weeks ago, using Montec Broadheads. I watched the wind grab them about 1/2 way (15-20) yds. Disappointing watching them arc away and miss!

I went out and bought some expandables in same 125gn weight! !!

Unfortunately, never got to let one fly.

I think they will handle the wind much better!

Target practice with 10 MPH wind. Raining shooting slightly up hill. Did better maybe a little out of practice. But hit the target little low. Right on at 20, 30 ,40, a little low 50. Used target , fixed stinger, and fixed muzzy. All within approximately 6-7 inches. Did a little maintenance shot better.
