will i get much better groups going to 100 grain montecs over the 85 grain at distances over 35 yards when the wind speeds up? thanks.

No. The type of broadhead (surface area) and design has far more to do with it than weight.

Surface area also applies to the arrow shaft itself (say a 2413 vs. an Axis) and the fletching type as well.

Weight will make a difference, but not 15 grains!

so the blazers i am using will be more prone to wind drift?
or would they help steer my montecs better?

 

[SlowBowInMO]

Blazers would be less prone to drift IMO...they are tall and stiff but have far less surface area (from the side, where wind will have an effect) than larger vanes.

Blazers are good!

I would think it would but make a little difference but you would have to get beyond 50 yards before I would become too worried. What is your arrow length and total weight?

i am shooting the axis st cut @ 27.5". hit insert and blazers, 85 grain tip.
i am not sure what each vane weighs or the insert, but i am sure some will.
