Numbering arrows
 

Hi I was wondering if anyone else numbers their arrows to see what ones shoot good. Or am I the only one who does this.

I do it too. Especially when shooting broadheads. I try to get the best combination of both. Also when tuning I try to plot every arrow I shoot on a piece of paper by number. Then after shooting around 100 arrows I can get a good idea of which arrows are flying the best.

Nope.

I shoot em all and if they don't fly straight I break them in half so I wont shoot them again.

I do number my arrows before I go hunting. I have "Ol #1" and "Lucky #2".....3-6 are just there for looks.

I do as well. It really helps to determine whether or not it is the arrow, some other piece of equipment or you as a shooter that is causing the occasional accuracy problem.

Nope I use different nock colors. Its easy to see without having to look for a number, also easier to remember.

I will be numbering them this year. Great idea!

I just started numbering this year. I never realized how different they were. I used to think I just messed up some shots and now I can see that most of the time number 3 hits 1-2 inches to the left or number 7 hits low 9 out of 10 times. Can't wait to start with my new arrows.

How are you numbering them?
 

I know, " 1, 2, 3, 4. . . " :D

I mean, are you using a sharpie on the vane, or taping a number to the shaft, or what?

I would suggest a sharpie.

If the arrow is straight and spine is the issue try twisting the nock and then recentering it to how every you shoot(cock feather up,down,out). Sometimes a slight adjustment will change the spine of the arrow and help it to shoot more consistantly.
