Default Be willing to try different things paper tuning

I have two X Force bows that are exactly the same, 53 / 54 LB, 28'' draw, Dropzone rest, loop ect...
I set up both bows myself.
One bow tunes perfectly with a Beman Hunter 400 shaft, Blazers, 125 gr. tip, total arrow weight is 430 grains.
The other bow won't tune well with that (or a couple of other) arrow(s); it likes, Redhead 2000 shaft 4'' feathers, 85 gr. tip, total arrow weight is 325 grains.
Both bows have the rest very close to center (marked on the riser) with the nock / loop slightly high.
Bow set up is basically the same, but the arrow that tunes best is very different.
Be willing to try different things when paper tuning.

Yeah, thats good and all but it could get very expensive buying all those shafts. I dont have that kind of money.
