go to eastons site & down load their tuning manual .
after you get your bow tuned with paper (close) then you walk back tune it.
first make sure your arrows match your setup . spine,weight,etc. http://www.eastonarchery.com/ click downloads it free.

There is only one way to make a bow shoot consistently. That is to learn good repeatable shooting form. Get it ingrained into your mind and body. The best way to accomplish this is to join a club and get a good coach or shooting buddy from the target ranks.

Along the way you'll pick up all the goodies you need to learn about tuning. And then tune your equipment.

Really, tuning is futile until you have at least repeatable form because to be able to tune you have to have some consistency. You can have arrows that are grossly out of spine tolerance for your bow and they will still group, but if you can't shoot then nothing will happen right.

It all is part of a process of getting better over time. There is no one thing that is all that much more important than others. It takes time and perseverence.
