Results are in!

It took me a little longer cause i had to figure out how to put a serving on my string for my STS. Anyway got that on there. And took 6 arrows out to my range. i had to do some minor adjusting to my no peep. Cause i had moved it to try to compensate for poor accuarcy when i had un-even tiller.

After that I shot my first three arrows... all touching at 20 yrds. Not wanting to damage any I shot the other 3 at my 25 yrd target and got them all touching.

Now for the fun part. Along w/ my serving I had ordered some Magnus stingers.

If you have read my other post you know im trying to figure out which head to carry. So i tested 3 different heads. I shot 2 field tips, 2 muzzy 3blade, and 2 magnus stinger 4blade. This was also the first time ive shot fixed blades outta my bow since i bareshaft tuned it. So this was going to be my ultimate tuning test.

First group at 25 yrds = 3 inches w/ all six arrows. The muzzy's and magnus heads flew great.
2nd group at 35 yrds = 4 inches w/ all six arrows (i think the 98 degree heat was getting to me).

Anyway I am so relieved I got my bow shooting amazing again. Not to mention its much quiter. Thanks everyone for helping me get it straight!!!

That's an amazing feeling, isn't it?! To watch a fixed blade head fly beautifully to the target and hit where you aim!! One of the best confidence builders there are!!!

Good job, sir. Nicely done!

Thanks, now I just need to not do anything stupid from now till the season. I think im going to end up carrying the Magnus stingers instead of the muzzy. Ive been a muzzy shooter for years now, but in my opinion the magnus looks stronger and sharper.

Anyway, your are very correct, this is the best my bow and I have ever been shooting. Watching those fixed blades speed through the air as straight as possible is what i am going to coin a "bow-gasm"

ROTFLAMO!!!! That, right there, is just funny!!!!! You don't mind if I use that, do you?

You WILL NOT be disappointed w/ the Stingers. I have never seen anything so sharp right out of the package in all my life! Muzzy's are good, but Stingers are better!
