I've been shooting compounds for years and I'm giving recurves a try. I'm going to order a Chekmate hunter II from recurves.com, but in the meantime I've purchased a 62" 45lb Pearson cougar to help me with the learning curve before I get frustrated with my nice new custom. I want to shoot off the shelf, but I need some advice on tuning. Everything I can find is for using a pressure button. I understand how to figure out a good brace height and nock placement but how do I stop left to right paper tears with carbon arrows. Also Shield cut or parabolic feathers and why. Any input would be appreciated.
