Don't know what you're aiming at but seems to me that plucking centers better !! Adjust !

You might have my new differences in your draw cycle, but I saw the videos down and you have a pretty good shot cycle. Maybe the helical helps reduce speed loss that’s why it varied at the end.

Great video. Thank you.

Terrific method! I trust what you think after watching just this video. Thank you.

I'm a beginner and I love your videos. They are easy to understand and put to use. Thank you

The only thing i know for certain. Adjusting my brace height gives me different levels of comfort. Each bow has a sweet spot where they have just better arrow flight or a better feel as you shoot them.

So true!! I been working on mine myself 😜 Thanks buddy

Even an ACE Hardware plunger helped move my groups left! Just wrap teflon tape around the riser and "plunger". Waiting for my Subuya plunger to come off back order at Lancaster!

Whisker biscuit slowing down an arrow is overexagerated, I lost 2 fps on my chrono testing vs a blade rest.. 2fps is so minimal it's not worth talking about.. Im tired of hearing people use the term as if it's a major disadvantage.. truth is a whisker biscuit is all you would ever need.. but people are obsessed with tech on compounds.. a blade or drop away is more tech so people think there automatically better..

I'm a visual learner too

I've never done archery before so sorry if this sounds stupid, could you use this technique in a barebow archery contest instead of string walking ?

If you grew up in the 70’s’80 that their parents would try and try and change their dominant hands by trying to train them to be right handed, you know all the old wives tales and all. I’m left handed I was born in 73 so I’m generation X, anyway my mom used to smack my left hand, tie my left hand so could only use my right, she finally gave up, but all of that crap she did made me ambidextrous 😂

Only have a left eye I shoot left Hand.

Man, there are soo many different kinds of back tension methods! I just watched another video saying NOT to do it this way! It said that your hand and elbow should go back as in like straight behind you...NOT the opposite direction of the arrow...

Sure you're not gap shooting with 3 fingers under and looking down the arrow? Howard Hill shot instinctively with split finger at unknown distances by learning the arc of his arrows.

You are torquing bow st heavy cant.

Years 1-3, developed form and strength, Years 4-now, correcting bad habits, Now.....having fun and slowly improving. Archery is more than shooting arrows. Patience, perseverance, mental control, personal satisfaction, are no small elements acquired that can be acquired.

I wish I had found this video 3 weeks ago when I started to research about archery. Very confusing watching archery vedeos without knowing what the dude is talking about. When they say "bare shaft", you have to bare shaft, but no one explains what that means. I thought it was the plain naked carbon, nothing else. I think "no fletching" would be a better term😸. Thanks for that, this video is amazing, there is no assumption that the audience already know this or that, everything is explained.

Love the head target lol

Where can I get that bow

Thanks, Greg! 😊 The information you shared in this video is awesome! I'm 66 years old and a newbie to archery. I started about 6 months ago by taking lessons, joining an archery club, and buying a 35 lb PSE Nighthawk, which is like a Samick Sage. I depended on the recommendation of the guys at my archery shop and have .600 carbon arrows, cut down 1/2". Your information on arrows is invaluable to me moving forward. I saved your video to my list. I will review it over and over until I have the information down by memory until no part is confusing, and I have a fluent understanding of these concepts! 😊 i just bought a 64" 40 lb. Southwest Archery Spider XL. It comes with a Dacron string. I ordered a 60" D97 Flemish Twist string. I understand D97 is between Dacron and Fast Flight. I will consider all these factors to buy new arrows for my 64" 40 lb. Southwest Archery Spider XL.

Thx u

Thanks for this, not quite as easy as make it seem. Got there and looking forward to trying them out

Just got a new one! Salvation Army find for $20 yesterday. A Ben Pearson BP-H90 7388 45 pound draw. Looks like new ! Got a new one to play with!

Great info!

I really enjoy your content I'm struggling being right handed but blind in my right eye so I'm shooting lefty ok but I'm struggling finding a set method of shooting style but anyway I like your videos thanks

A bow not cut to center will induce a bending action due to the rapid change in angle as the arrow accelerates abruptly. A flexible spine and heavy point can only exacerbate the bending action as the string keeps the nock end in the same plane. The point is thrust out away from the limb rapidly causing most of the shaft flex.

Always kept both eyes open, so I guess I'm an instinctive shooter. Right handed and left eye dominant I fire a rifle left handed. Peep sights never worked for me because of this. I practice what I call Amish compound archery without sights but with a release aid! A left hand bow probably won't work for me because of left shoulder injury. I'll be trying your method and hope you're right. Not doing too badly with both eyes though. Maybe I shoot with some mix of instinctive and gap without having known what this is.

What are "eye dobbins"??? "It all comes down to eye dobbins." ????? Can you enunciate better or record better please?

Great video! Just what I needed to stop thinking about equipment and just shoot until I get consistent groups. Great channel, great advice. Cheers Greg.

I’m wondering if maybe you’re left handed, but right eye dominant. That’s actually pretty common with people who are left handed, they have to shoot right handed anyway because off their eyes.

We are not here for the cat.

So does the 4 fletching fly the same as a 3 fletching arrow of is it slower?

no one shoots arrows without feathers in the first place so what's the point here and feathers or vanes come on all arrows you buy new unless you order arrow with out any on them or you make you own thats different but other wise everything in the stores and off the shelf already have vanes or feathers tuning is more to do with yes feathers or vanes and the bow your using spin size up front weight of the tip and incert etc.. so your video all it does is prove how bad arrows suck without feathers or vanes and like i said all archers shoot with feathers or vanes even when hunting no one shoots bare arrows ..

Great video sir helped me out a lot

hey, nice video. one thing needs to be corrected: it's called intuitive and not instinctive. instinct is in your genes and is called up in stressful situations. intuitive needs calm and training through repetition.

Hello A while back and I'm not sure which video or whether or not it was on this channel or Archery 101, you mentioned about your point before you draw on the spot you want to hit, would automatically set your gap. If you could provide me with the link to it I would greatly appreciate it. I try to explain to people and they don't get what I'm trying to say. Thank you. Aaron

So your title SHOULD be “Don’t BARE shaft tune….for beginners. With a simple understanding of tail left and tail right you could correct much of that issue with correct spine and different grain tips. Is getting the correct spine and tip weight really too complicated in the Information age? Clearly those bare shaft arrows are way off for that bow. Why waste time and money thinking that you have the right arrows and know how to shoot only to find out your form sucks and the arrows were covering it up. This would be like beginning with a guitar that has built in pitch correction or a car that has auto pilot then wondering why when you turned off the technology you suck as a player or can’t drive through the parking lot without crashing. I’m not saying a beginner should keep tinkering trying to get sub 6 inch groups but with all the test kits available tuning isn’t really a black art too advanced for someone with average intelligence.

Great video! I have had only two classes so far, but this video made so much sence

You need to shoot multiple arrows of each variation to get a decent sample size, and to prevent anonmalies due to external variants, ie the archer. Thought this on another video of yours you did testing speeds of straight vs helical fletching. One of your first results was an obvious anomaly (first helical arrow shot at close range) If youre going to the effort of making these videos and doing these tests you should at least do 12 of each arrow type at each variant being tested (ie distance, different arrow type) All data based on group samples are more accurate the greater the sample size. Statistically one sample for each variant statistically doesnt prove anything as they have hidden anomalies, especially important with these kinds of tests as humans cant consistently repeat the exact same method, there'll always be slight variants in draw or release etc. greater sample sizes helps identify the anomalies and identify a norm. Not having a go, or criticising for the sake if it. I enjoy the videos but ultimately low sample group data telis us very little

Jimmy joe know it all is right. Wrongly matched arrows to go off line. Ive experienced it. Granted there are other variables, but matching correct spine/weight combination is a factor, if youre sighting down the arrow and theyre goung to the side door ts a Go d chance its poorly matched arrows. 20yards can be too short a distance to be noticable but at larger distances it becomes more apparent. Though it also depends on the bow, certainly english longbows are more susceptible as they need a larger fkex to get round the wider bow, flatbows and recurves with cut out arrowshelves its the of an issue as the arrow doesnt yave to bend around the bow as much. Although i find, (for right handed shooters) too stiff oull to the left, top weak go all over the place. I prefer slightly too stiff to slightly too weak. Like with all archery its try it and see what works for you, tberes conflicting advise on everything, enjoying it is the main goal

I have no problem with my glove.

That was great ,but i would also do an investigation in the Position of your silencers!

When I cant it shortens my draw length by an inch or two which reduces my arrow velocity. My longbows require a cant just to keep the arrow on the shelf for some reason buy my recurves not so much. It may be because my shelf rug is different. Not sure yet. If your arrow spine is not correct you will definitely see a big difference by how much you cant. A stiff arrow will move your POI left for a right hand shooter. Same with plucking the string.

A 20 min video for an answer that could be delivered in 20 seconds max!

it would be interesting to do this same test with bare shafts as that will show the differences better. Fletching covers a lot... especially if we are not getting nothing but X's. :)

The simplest interpretation could be "The bow is in the way of the arrow" and everything else is a consequence of that fact. In this sense the paradox is the contradictory statement. Definition of paradox: "a seemingly absurd or contradictory statement or proposition which when investigated may prove to be well founded or true."

Great tutorial. Thank you.

All we need is someone with yrs of experience like an old timer to tell us what HIS experience is with different fletchings and what is best in various situations etc, experience beats testing all day here!!!

I like 5 inch shield cut. I think they look cool 😎
