Question. I’ve been shooting for years and my setup has been the same since the V3X was released. I put my bow in the case after hunting season and I finally pulled it out yesterday to shoot. Everything was blurry. It’s almost like I’m straining or having a hard time looking through my peep. I can’t focus anything and my vision is good. I don’t wear glasses or need glasses. I don’t know if I’m all of a sudden holding my bow wrong or if it’s caused by my draw length being off. I did recently but the Stan Onnex hinge so it’s a shorter release then I was using. Would you know what could cause this and what I should look for? It’s strange. I have the sport hog and I even moved my scope farther away to See if it would help which is did a little bit. Have you ever heard of this happening to someone?

Tune with broadheads for your hunting setup. I’ve drove myself crazy with bareshaft tuning and my broadheads been dead nuts at 60yds. I agree with mfjj

@technicalbowhunting Жыл бұрын

Broadhead tuning vs bare shaft tuning I agree with josh to an extent.. BUT I’ve seen at longer distances (40 yards plus), a fletched shaft with a broadhead veer to one side; the fletching over corrects the arrow; and your broadhead tipped shaft actually ends of on the other side of the target. It acts almost like a car fishtailing from side to side. If you were trying to tune based on those results you would be chasing your tail and pull in you hair out. A bare shaft will veer one direction and one direction only; the way it’s shot out of the bow. I don’t have to shoot my broadheads into foam repeatedly, dulling broadheads and tearing up targets; to get a tune. A good bare shaft tune usually gives you a good broadhead tune as well. To each their own but I really enjoy shooting bare shafts all year round; I’d shoot a couple bare shafts every session. It really tells me a lot about form inconsistencies in different situations. Shooting bare shafts at a target 30 yards away at shoulder height vs 30 yards at a target on the ground vs elevated a bit.. it shows me my form inconsistencies in different situations and helps me address them. Thanks for the informative and entertaining content Dan and Josh!

great content! at 18:36 josh is talking about pushing both ends of the arrow to find the weak spot on the arrow. I have found this to be a great way to a starting point on arrow tuning . I have for years now been doing this. i have made my bow press to be able to do this simply cut your arrow then put the insert your going to be using in the arrow on both ends of the arrow without gluing them in of course. on my bow press i have used a punch to make indentions so the field points will go into so they do not slip off the press. then slowly press the bow press with the arrow in place. You will see the arrow flex out . mark that point. then release pressure and spin the arrow about a quarter then repeat it you will see that the arrow will bow out in a different position like instead of the arrow bowing up it will now bend to the right or left. i do this 4 times around the arrow to make sure my arrow is still bowing on my original mark it is time consuming but i like tinkering and finding new ways to get my arrows as close to tuned as possible. hope i dont sound too geeked out. Im a western hunter out in arizona and like practicing out to 120 with my iron will wide blade set up. it works for me and hopefully it will for you .Good luck and always i repeat always tinker.

@RudyHassallPMP Жыл бұрын

I used to nock tune my arrows like Josh mentioned. I would build my arrows with the stiff side up on the shaft. Glue my outserts so that the broadheads would align to the same. Then fletch the 3 vanes on with no cock vane. Then if I needed to nock tune, I would turn the nock 120* to obtain the best and most consistent flight out of the shaft. Worked for me, assisted me in having confidence in my equipment, and fewer excuses regarding my equipment. If the shot was off, it was more than likely me.

@jsienesi Жыл бұрын

This information is a good advocate for a 4 fletch as your more often than not going to have it aline ok when nock tuning after you have fletched it within a workable area of your 4 vane configuration saving you from having to re fletch. Would love to see a list of order of process for the quickest way to tune your arrows for broardheads as there are many steps most of us do that are possibly irrelevant.

I completely concur with Josh on spine testing and bare shaft nock tuning. I have tested this maybe hundreds of times with every shaft and bow combination I think a human can stand. I can get your bare shafts, arrow #1-#12 to shoot perfect bullet holes in paper with nock tuning. The second you put vanes on the back. Completely different non consecutive tears with the same arrows. Anyone telling you otherwise it's a parrot.

The thing about having a bare shaft to tune with is that you can use it to check your tune if you're worried about it at a range that doesn't allow broadheads, which as far as I've seen is basically all of them. I've also noticed that with the electrical tape on the back of the shaft I actually watched my shaft correct for flight like it has fletchings on it at 20 and 30yds. I have to play with that some more.

There’s another guy on yt who made a flex tester using a length of pipe and a could of pipe clamps. He dimples each clamp to receive a field point and tightens the clamp until the arrow flexes. Hardest part I see is getting the dimples perfectly aligned but a suppose a drill press and a block would work. Pretty clever, and works.

@YoutubeMastersDegree Ай бұрын

If you have the time it is not stupid to nock tune bareshafts to get them flying the same at a base level before also nock tuning after fletching the arrows. The same for paper tuning a new bow to get to the very basic base level is a good starting point and is not stupid.

@bryanheimann5370 11 ай бұрын

I can’t help but to wonder, how much does the straightness of the arrow impact the nock tune. Say you have one marginally crooked shaft. Like “.006” out of a batch of perfectly straight ones. And the strong or weak spot don’t necessarily correspond with which way it is bent. Might that flex in line with the curve of the arrow instead of curving according to the weak spine? Not even a pretend pro here it’s just been in my thoughts over the past couple of years.

Torque tuning as I was taught it was: put your sight where you want it, tune your rest out to fit it. If your sight is way out there, your rest will also be farther from the riser. Similarly, if you have the sight in close, that rest will be far closer.

Fully agree about the weak side of shaft, but why do think it’s too much work to nock tune after the arrows are fletched, I am going to put in the reps anyways and practice with improving everything I can, with four fletch I rarely have to refletch an arrow but it does happen but I find that spine that arrow is off just as often.

@user-il9ip8no2o Жыл бұрын

To set up a bow well for shooting broadheads, you need at least 20m and preferably 30m smooth flight of the bareshaft.Paige Pierce shoots a bareshaft from 60 yards and the setup can take a week.There is one person who can from 66 yards.I shot once with a 40m bareshaft, but this is most likely an accident, and so 30m confidently.

@bbmas1930 Жыл бұрын

I remember Paige Pearce and Gillingham saying the same thing - as soon as fletchings go onto a spine aligned/nock tuned shaft, the arrow will shoot completely differently again, making the previous work a moot point. Paige Pearce was saying she does bare shaft but that step is to tune the bow, not the arrow. Yeah they check spine, runout etc to get all their arrows into a tolerance bracket but then they just fletch and nock tune those through paper.

@justinjhauser5110 Жыл бұрын

Exodus marks the weak spot on their custom built arrows. They do that after the arrow has been cut to length then they fletch accordingly.

@Njjb122 Жыл бұрын

I always thought the point of spine aligned wasn't so much about the stiff being up or down it was more about them all being the same way. When your talking about nock tuning a fletched arrow im guessing your talking about shooting it through paper. Fletchings correct arrow flight so much where if you get a bareshaft bullethole at say 10yds don't all of your fletched arrows give you a bullet hole anyway?

The 5 grains per pound probably is more applicable to the IBO standard of 30” draw. With his shorter draw he’s probably producing energy numbers of less than a 70lb bow at IBO 30” draw. Which means he shouldn’t have a problem with the lighter arrows.
