RE: Tuning fixed blades ??

Mr. Barrie ought to stop by and visit me sometime. I not only totally disagree with him, if he made that statement, but I would quickly prove him wrong.

Roland: Check this out. I went out and grabbed one of Sean's(my son) arrows since I knew my 71# bow would shoot them over 300 fps. Keep in mind that his arrow is 6 spines off what I normally shoot in my bow. I put it through the chrono at almost 310 fps; and, it punched a beautiful bullet hole through the paper. I guess the bow is tuned right and doesn't have one of those 'false tunes'.

Anyhow, I put a used Muzzy 3 blade 100 on it and proceeded to the broadhead range. At 310 fps with a fixed (used) broadhead, shooting 20 yards, 3 arrows in a 1" circle in the 'X' ring. And you know me, Roland, I invite anyone by to see me demonstrate this in person to verify.

Good shooting.
