Bow tuning

WarChief · 03-27-2004, 04:24 AM

I'm shooting a Reflex Buckskin 60/70 at a draw weight of 65#. I seem to have a problem getting my arrows tuned in and placed where I want them to go. I am shooting 3 different brands all weighting approx the same (about 360) The arrows are, Easton Epic 400, Vapor Blackhawk 5000, and Beman ICS 340. all have the same 100 grain field points and all the same length of 27 inches (yeah I have short arms). When I shoot with the eastons and have them sighted in and making good groups and then pick up one of the other brands they will go extreme right by anywhere from 6 to 8 inches. If I resight these arrows into a nice group then I have a problem with the Eastons going to the extreme left 6 to 8 inches. What could my problem be?

Epic 400's, Vapor 5000 and ICSH 340's. NONE of those arrows match in weight or stiffness. They will never shoot to the same point of aim because they cannot all operate out of the same bow at the same settings.

Figure out which ones shoot best for you. Tune them in. Sight them in. Buy more of that particular brand and size at the same length. Get rid of the others.
