It has been awhile since I installed broadheads. Here is what I remember
For left wing rotate head 30 degree right and opposite for right wing.
Is this correct?

Two blade or three?

I follow O. L. Adcock's advice and mount my two blades horizontally.

I've never heard the 30 degree thing before.

Not sure what your description means but it doesn't matter how the broadhead is on the arrow so long as it is straight.
Some people like a particular site window for what the head looks like at full draw but the arrow doesn't care.
It just needs to be straight.

If your arrow flight is not optimal, you can find a "best" angle for the broadheads.  I know this is true because it is what I used to do before I understood arrow tuning.  I used to shoot a broadhead and then rotate it about 30 degrees and then shoot it again... until it flew straight.  My theory is that I would eventually determine when the blades of my broadhead were most parallel with the initial whip of the arrow, due to poor flight out of the bow.  Once I had found an angle that worked, I rotated all the broadheads in my quiver to the same angle, and they flew straight.

Now that my arrows are properly tuned, and I'm shooting off a rest, I feel like I could shoot a spoon for a broadhead and it would fly straight.     :knothead:  Everything else does!
Life is a whole lot easier when you just plow around the stump.
