My setup: Hoyt ProTec, LXPRo limbs, Accuwheels, 46" axle to axle, 60 pounds, 65% letoff, Cavalier FreeFlyte micro adjust rest, 4" Doinker, catwhiskers, Limbsavers and 1 brass nock. Arrows: 33" 2315's, 5" feathers, 125 gn points. Black Widow tab. That's it. No sights or other extraneous gobbledygook.

I set my nock at 1/2" with my bowsquare, eyeballed centershot, shot 3 fletched arrows and 3 bareshaft at 20 yards to check rough tune on centershot and nockset, then shot at 60 yards to fine tune centershot. 10 minutes. The remaining 20 minutes were spent fine tuning my tiller so the bow drew smooth and stayed on target thoughout the draw and readjusting my nockset.

Of course, I didn't account for the time I spent when I first got it, before taking it to the range, setting draw weight and zero tiller for a starting point and then timing/synching the wheels. Altogether, that would add about another 45 minutes to an hour to the procedure.

The bow shoots broadheads beautifully on those 2315's with just that little bit of tuning. I could do a lot more tuning and maybe squeeze out another half inch of accuracy, but why? Why would I want to wrestle around like I've done trying to tune carbon arrows when aluminum gets me shooting accurately with that little trouble?

The only non-aluminum arrows I've found that work as well are Carbon Express Terminator Selects. If I had to shoot a non-aluminum arrow, those are the ones I'd go to, and they are a fiberglass/carbon composite arrow. The main reason I'm not shooting them now is because they aren't available locally and, when I want something, I want it NOW. I don't like waiting for the UPS man.[&:]
