If a bow is properly tuned and timed and rest is set at actual center shot and timed the next thing to affect broadheads is either spine or grip. Some bows shoot different broadheads better than others just like guns like certain rounds vs others. In my limited experience of the thousands of bows I've tuned and hunters I've helped set up I have yet to see a properly tuned bow and rest set up with the proper spine arrow not shoot a broadhead well. But taking the bow out of center to make it shoot "correctly" makes little to no sense. You can if absolutely necessary tune it through the yolk or the grip unless there's a medical condition that the can't hold a bow properly.
No doubt and I am not questioning your "limited experience" But I think you would agree, his bow is NOT properly tuned if field tips and broadheads are not hitting in the same place. Part of tuning, as again you know, is making sure the rest is launching both a field tip and a broadhead in the exact same direction. Clearly it is not. There is a lot of leeway in a field tip. If his bows timing is correct, I would move the rest. Again this is recommended by G5. I am quite certain they have quite a bit more "limited experience" than you and I together. By moving the site, the broadheads will hit bullseye but the field points will not. Again, that is not a properly tuned now.

Here is a great link on how to tune broadheads. Another great one. Same advice on the G5 website.
You move you REST NOT YOUR SIGHT to make broadheads and field tips shoot the same

you don't shoot broadheads and field tips out of a gun. Pretty sure you just shoot bullets. I was taught this long ago from some very excellent shooters, as I used to be confused on it also. Pretty sure Tracy Hardy knows how to tune a broad head.

I shoot slick tricks as well. Perhaps i missed something, but You are tuning wrong. if you are shooting 1" low with broad heads, you do not change your sight, you raise your rest to tune the broad head. The small movement of the rest will change the flight of the broad head but not of the field tip. This will bring your impact point of you broad heads right to you field tips. It is actually very easy to tune fixed broad heads as long as your bow is tuned.

My best friend lives in rural Idaho and raises grass fed and grass finished beef. It's more than 6 bucks per pound but the flavor is incredible. If interested, PM me. Grass finished costs more because it takes an extra year to finish them compared to grain finished. A lot healthier but doesn't have the marbling like a grain finished animal.....

thats sounds like a good idea! Does it work with gel glues?one more trick is I like to use the tip of a mechanical pencil for glue placement. just stick it over the spout tightly and squeeze a really small line out. you don't need much glue at all.

we still have a doggy door but our dogs have to wear a transmitter (like a thick quarter) on their collar. When they walk up to the door, it opens for them and closes behind them. Wasn't cheap but worth it for where I liveAnother reason I don't do "doggy doors." Stuff comes in you don't want in.

seriously wtf? How can you lose that? He wanted to go home. He looked for 2 hours? Nice commitmentMore crying tonight, panty wetting.
Goodness knows a fire starter ain't all that important, lay it down any ol place.

As a custom home builder, I tell my snow bird clients to not go above 82....can lead to lots of cracks if you do

Agree with will k and kidso. You'll get used to it. Just takes practice. I don't even wear one anymore. If you are canoed out, and don't move much, you are good to go.

So you didn't lose it! I know stuff happens. Scary someone could find it whom shouldn't have it like a small child

How do you lose a gun?

I think said inch. What can I say. I drink lots of Titos. An inch is human error with a bow as most of us know.
