Default HELP!!!

Hi.....I have been shooting the same bow for about a year and I have never tuned it. My groups are about 2 inches at 20 yards and I know they could be tighter. I have decided to try and tune my bow. I would have done it a long time ago but I dont know how. How do you tune a bow??????? thanks for the help

Really a very vague question?! There are alot of aspects to tuning on the bow alone then you get into shafts heads,etc. If you are shooting 2" groups that' s not bad at all. Most guys I know who get good flight with both field and broadheads find that the bow is set a little long in draw length causing poor form. sometimes 1/4 to 1/2 " in draw length makes a world of difference. I' d say that if it paper shoots well and is holding consistent groups it' s more likely operator than equiptment error. Again I Know nothing about how or what you shoot so this is a general statement and nothing personal. For what it' s worth I hope it Helps!!!Good Luck

Check out the Easton website and download their tuning guide. I was shooting okay groups just like you until I found that site (through the recommendation of many here) last summer. The difference between shooting a bow that is set up okay and one that is well tuned is like night & day.
