Take from this whatever you want. I have always said that 99.9% of people that have problems with a WB are shooting one that is not set up properly.

This little "experiement" really opened my eyes as to how and why some people out there cry about the WB tearing up vanes.........it can really do a number on them if it is setup poorly. It is just a shame that they blame the rest when a couple quick adjustments is all they need.

If you think about it the fact that the WB visibly marks vanes when poorly tuned is actually a GOOD thing. In no time flat you know that you need to get your gear tweaked because something is not right.........some people can't follow arrow flight well when shooting so this is a good method of instant feedback on your tune job.

It's a real shame that more people out there don't realize this and just rip the rest off or just think they have to live with it. A WB doesn't damage vanes..........a poorly setup one does.

Anyone out there that is ripping up vanes should go back to whoever setup your WB on your bow and tell them they need to fix it and refletch your arrows because they did a poor job and that is why your vanes are ruined.
