RE: Whats wrong with my setup?
Hi, nice board.
I agree with you all that form and fit play a big role in how a certain bow shoots.
I`m shooting a Jennings at 60 lbs, WB rest and field points for target practice.
I generally can shoot five or under groups consistent at 20 yards and paper plate at 40 and 60 yards.
I also am a tinker and can`t leave well enough along so i have re-tuned my bow half a dozen times.
The end result being all settings end up back in the exact same place evey time. I use the bare shaft method and grouping for tuning.
Something weird and may prove the point about form and bow fit is a friend of mine was over yesterday and shot my bow.
I was shooting fletched arrows in tight groups and putting the un-fletched arrow right in with the fletched.
When he shot my bow the fletched arrows went right six inches and the un arrow went left six and high eight.
I am tall and the bow is set at 29 draw length and he is a short person so i can only contribute that much difference in the poor way my bow fit him.
Great and helpful thread.
Thanks
