Is really important at all, on any kind of bow. I mean all it really is, is to check for torque at long ranges right? So it is just a referance it doesn't affect accuracy at all does it?
WRONG ,you totally missed the point of this whole thread.
If you watch your bubble and it isn't set right,you will cant your bow to get the bubble right,but it will be lying to you.
If your 3rd axis isn't set right,when you shoot a target downhill at 40 yards,you could be off several inches.
Now think about those that shoot uphill at an 80 yard target.They could miss by a foot if the 3rd axis isn't properly set.
Yes, but what I meant was that if you didn't have the 3rd axis at all. And, you just relied on good form. Then you could go into any plane and still have it shooting straight.
It isn't about form.
When you shoot on hills,the human mind has a tendancy to sight in with the terrain so you will align the bow up with the ground.That means you will have a cant in the bow.You can balance the bow so that it hangs level but you will have a tendancy on hills to match up to your surroundings.
That is the whole reason for the level but the level has to correct to be accurate.
