issues...
I was so excited to receive my broadheads--125 gr Magnus snuffers.. With my new arrows (goldtip 5575 with 2" blazers), I tried a single left over Montec--unfortunately it hit high and left multiple times. Figuring the increased tip weight would help, I ordered the Magnus Snuffers (still waiting for Slick Tricks, and couldn't pass up the price on e-bay). Well, the snuffers hit 6-8 inches left. I made an adjustment of the rest to the right--this made the heads hit near the area, but was unable to group with any consistency.
I decided to paper tune based on the Easton guide. I find that it was a stiff spine reaction--so using the guide I moved the rest to the left as far as it would go--still got the stiff spine rxtn, although not as bad. What are the next steps, as I am concerned thatthe bow is not at all in tune--should I increase tip weight and increase poundage? or should I just take it to the shop and have it professionally tuned? Here are my specs: Darton Avalanche NAP Quiktune 200 dropaway rest about 65" (maybe more) 29" draw length 29" goldtip XT 5575 arrows- 2" blazer veins |
RE: issues...
Well doc I think those 55-75 maybe a little weak. Added to that a lighter vane combo with a heavy head and it maybe just to much for a 65+ bow with a 29" arrow. Now you should be able to get them to go in the same area and it sounds like you are. Live with them or get some 75-95. You can also decrease poundage, increase vane weight, decrease head weight, shorten arrow. You have some work to do. No big deal. Just get'r done. I changed from Gt's to bemans They have no spine issues like the GT's. You get what you need based on the chart, period.
Good hunting! |
RE: issues...
125 grain heads? Are you going elk hunting? Maybe your FOC isoff with so much weight on the front and so little out back. FOC should be 7-15%. Here's a calculator. http://home.att.net/~sajackson/archery9.html
