Default RE: Bare shaft tuning

welcome nebuck

Some info on your set up would help.

What arrows and spine
your draw length
the arrow length
what tip weight
what model bow
what poundage
and what rest

The tunning of your bow is very much connected with your form. Since form has so much to do with the way the arrow leaves the bow, It is impossible to tune a bow if your form is bad.

You must have consistant and correct hand placement and pressure- (or lack of) with your bow hand. Don' t choke the grip, get it into the meat of your thumb, with your nuckles at about a 45 deg angle to the ground, and the hand must be relaxed.

Your anchor must be to the same exact point, with your head in the same exact place every shot.

I would suggest getting the tune close, then read all you can, and get all the advice you can on form - and shoot and shoot and shoot. When you get consistant, and comfortable - then really hit the tunning aspect.

Good Luck\And welcome aboard[:-]
