Help with long range fishtailing
First, here's my setup:
2006 Parker Pheonix 34-- 30" draw, 58.5#
Whisker biscuit QSrest
Sting loop and release
29" Carbon Express Maxima 250 Arrows w/ strait 2" blazers & 100 grain broadheads.
So here's the problem:
The bow has been well tuned at my proshop....it shoots bullets through paper (maybe and occasional 1/4 - 1/2" tear, which is probably form),but as the arrowreaches about 15-20 yards it starts to fishtail (iactually videoed it to make sure my eyes were deceiving me). I will group pretty well atinside a3" circle at20 yards, but by30....it won't group inside an 8" circle, and I havent even tried40 yards.
In working with the local pro.....he's made a couple of suggestions....I wanted to run them by you guys to make sure that he's not forgetting anything. Obviously....i've listed these in the most cost effective order.
1) Increase feild point wieght to 125 grains
2) Switch to offset blazer vanes
3) Increase arrow wieght
4) Buy a drop away rest
5) Buy a new bow
I'm pretty frustrated and could use any suggestions.
