Chris.....I agree with not jumping on the guy. But, he lost me, right here.

If you start off with your arrow cut to length, you're denying yourself a crucial tool in achieving tune.

i could go way more into depth with foc and stuff but this was the basics.Having your arrow cut to legnth will efect nothing as far as tuning.the amount you are gringing is so minimal it won't effect anything.you only grind enuf to gain a little more turn on the thread.if your grinding more than an 1/8th inch you have more serious problems. this mthod was for carbon arrows

But this guy is a league shooter. I am just sayin.

To clean up the SHAFT after it is cut so the insert will fit square to the shaft.

I have 48 years of shooting and have shot against and with the best in the world including the 1980 Olympic gold medalist.

In only 1 of the links you supplied did the writer say he aligns the blades to his feathers and that was the Basspro shop guy.

All of the others say to have the head square to the shaft.

Nothing wrong with posting tips and tricks just make sure the information you are giving is the right info as said before PSE busted the myth of having blades aligned to the fletching.

If by doing that makes you feel good then so be it.

Oh please do I am interested to find out what you think the best FOC is.

This is what I have learned with aligning the fletches.If pse busted that tip than so be it I will continue to align mine the same becouse I like the consistancy.that was only one tip in this post and what is WRONG about it? what is actually one thing that will hurt the performance of the flight

I am shooting 20% on one bow right now. Working out well for me.

Mark.

As you know on 1 set mine is 24% and on the other is 38%:wink:

We are probably wrong.:D

12.5% foc...that is what I am at

Russ, how do ever expect to be a league shooter with 24%?
