Default RE: bare shafting

You go through the same process. The difference is that often times the results you see from left to right will require opposite adjustments than for fingers. In other words, a shaft that is too stiff will shoot to the right and not to the left, etc.

Does this help? Another thing I'd recommend is to start you shooting close. I usually begin at about 6' and work back from there, making adjustments as I go. I start with my rest on centershot and never move it. If my bare shaft is planing left or right I adjust the poundage of my bow to see how the next shot will act. If the next shot is worse then I go the other way. Do you get it?
