paper tuning will get you close and usually decint fieldpoint flight...but its generally not the ending point of tuning if your serious.

goto Eastons website and download the tuning guide. good read and explains a bunch of different tuning methods....

That would be like shooting a muzzel loader over and over not cleaning it then going hunting. Then when you shoot at an animal and wonder why you did not hit where you aimed.

I didnt use to but now i wouldnt think of not papertuning. I set them up with the laser tuner and levels. That gets you pretty close and then I papertune. Then shoot broadheads and if I need to I do some fine tuning with the broadheads
