Paper Tuning
 

How many of you guys paper tune? If you don't paper tune what do you do?

I paper tune, I get my bow set-up and shoot it through paper expecting to see nothing but the shaft and three vanes.

YeaI paper tune

I never paper tuned. I shoot broadheads and fieldpoints together at 20 and 30 yards to make sure they have the same point of impact and practice with broadheads at various ranges. I figure if my arrows hit what I'm aiming at without having to adjust for the type of point I'm using, I'm good to go. Maybe I could gain a little efficiency if I tweaked everything into perfect tune and jupiter was in alignment with saturn, but I'm happy if my broadheads and fieldpoints hit the same place.

I paper tune as well. It works for me, and my broadheads. Also, I shoot through the paper sometimes if I'm having an rough day on the range because it is a way that I can see if I'm doing something wrong (punching, torquing, etc.) I usually have one of the shop pros shoot it to make sure it is just me at that point, and it usually is a problem with me, instead of the bow.

I have never used paper when tuning my bow, but I have used paper to wipe the blood off my arrows:Djk

I have never tried it! I will try it this year though, see how far off I really am. Haven't really thought about it to much, it seems to be shooting pretty good!

No paper tuning for me... Walk back, and broadhead tune only...

Just shoot me a pm sometime.I stay on the go most of the time but I do help when I can.

RE: Paper Tuning
 

That's some good info TFox. I would only add that I found putting a piece of masking tape on my rest and marking the starting point of where I go from getting it close with paper tuning and using the walk off method has help me tremendously. The markings on my rest begin to look the same after a few adjustments.

RE: Paper Tuning
 

I have precision scales(rulers) that I use to measure the distance of the rest from an easily measured source.From the end of the shaft usually works well.
