Default RE: Tiller Tuning

ORIGINAL: Roseaukaine

I am trying to bare-shaft tune the WB delux after noticing a slight nock-high tear with fletching. After several shots with a bare shaft at 6 ft, I have a moderate nock-high tear. I can't move the rest any farther up, and I can't seem to move my string loop to change my nocking point. Can I make slight adjustments to my tiller (tighten the bottom limb) in order to bring the nock point down without any adverse effect to my bow's performance?
People will often want to use a monofilament serving on the bowstring when they use a D-loop. The D-loop can then be turned up & down the monofilament serving like a nut on a bolt for tuning.

Any tear at 6 ft will more often than not, be much aggravate from 5-10 yds.

Start tuning with fletching; the direction of the tear is easier to see.

Usually the only time a tiller will be changed from the manual or company instructions is when they say change them: that is their call.

The elevation of an arrow rest is typically designed so the arrow is pushed from the most high-speed section of the bowstring. That should be about the middle of the free bowstring; the more close to an axle the slower the movement. At the axle there is almost no movement: 1/8” distance of elevation on some bowstring, can change some bows speed a few fps.
