Jerry, I have to go along with your tuning process almost completly as this is pretty much what I have settled into. I do use paper tuning to get an initial setup though but if your fletches haven't straightened out your arrow in 20 - 30 yards you've got more troubles than a one legged man in a butt kicking contest. <img src=icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle> I think part of the disagreement may come from folks that are more used to tuning for long range target shooting (80-90 yds.)versus tuning for a hunting setup. I am no expert and certainly not a great shot, but I have found that by using a system very close to yours I wind up with a very forgiving setup that is more tolerant of form imperfections that are the norm rather than the exception in hunting situations especially from a treestand in awkward shooting positions. By tuning my bow this way I find that I can group to my ability (10 ring on a McKinsey (sp?) 3D target) out to 40yds. with an assortment of arrows including fletched field points, 3 different brands and styles of fixed broadheads and bare shaft all shot one after the other at random. I'll admit I usually don't shoot the bare shafts much past 30yds. though. I know this ain't great accuracy but it gives me confidence in those less than perfect situations. Maybe not worth 2 cents but for whatever it is worth, thats my story and I'm sticking to it.
