Well i needed to paper tune my bow but i have never done it before so i called up the shop where i bought my bow at and asked if they paper tune bows and they said dont paper tune bows anymore that they laser tune them now, that thats the new way. Well i was just wondering if laser tuning is accurate and if it works as good as paper tuning or better?

I have heard of it, but never seen it. It does sound intriquing, but I would rather see the hole in the paper to erase all doubt.

Download the Easton Tuning Guide and check out Bob Ragdale's site. That'll do ya good.

I've never been much of a believer in "static" tuning methods because you'll need to shoot the bow anyway to make adjustments for your grip, shooting style, etc.

I don't know what they mean by laser tuning , but I'm not aware of everything. I do know that there are lasers now for setting up centershot on a bow. I have one. But this is still not tuning. This is just basic setup using a laser for centershot instead of eyeballing.

You should become aware of something that people have a misconception of and that is that a shop cannot TUNE your bow. They set it up according to certain accepted standards. That being usually setting your rest so the arrows are on centershot and that the nocking point allows the arrow to be perpendicular to the string (90 degrees), even tiller at the weight you prefer. After that it is up to YOU to tune the bow. Everybody shoots a bow differently so you must be the shooter. Shop personnel may or may not help you make adjustments to the bow to achieve acceptable tune, but their job is not TUNING your bow for you.

What they probably mean is that they set the center shot with a laser. It's still only a starting point in my opinion.

Laser tuning can be a beneficial way to go,,with a former new bow since i'v returned the laser determined that my arrow rest was going to be positioned so close the the riser that i only had less than a 1/32 contact between fletching and the riser,,not good

Thats why i choose another ,, i went Martin Saber

Yup, they're just setting the center shot and getting you started. You can come just as close yourself, but it'll take longer. But really, you need to paper tune to see how it's flying. Your particular grip, pressures, follow through and torgue make your tune different than anyones or any machines.
