just got done installing it on my bow. the prongs run into the riser unless it is all the way out.had to set my knock point 1/4 inch higher than 90 degrees to the arrow. did a paper tune at 5 yards. low 1 inch tear i shot at 20 yards look like a lot of fishtailing to the arrows. the bow is a 60lber i have it set at 53lbs for target i' m shooting carbon express 200s 28 inch arrows at 29 inch draw they weight in at 320 grains with a 75 grain tip speed 270 i' m shooting 1 inch groups at 20 yards but the fishtailing bothers me for lose of ke. i will be shooting beeman 400s at 60lbs this hunting season they will weight in at 368 with a 100 grain tip. what do you think.i forgot to mention this is a left hand bow

selway, I start at 3/4" center shot, with nock 3/16-1/4" high. What kind of rest is on your bow? It may be launcher tension if a shoot through. It may also be form related. Try experimenting with different hand positions on the grip.
Sorry, I missed NAP 2000 in the title. Forget launcher tension.[

My new DC Pat was giving me the same fits when I was paper tuning it with my new NAP 4000 drop away rest. I worked this forum over looking for an answer and what I got was this: paper tuning is a nice place to start but it' s only a start. To get bullet holes out of my setup I had to move the rest out even with the edge of the shelf. When I did that it grouped ok but when I started moving the rest around a little the groups tightened up out at 30+ yds. Group tuning won over paper tuning for me. I have a slight kick out of the bow (arrow kick) but my arrows are deadly accurate. I' m shooting a 70lb bow so KE is not as much a factor for me. Good luck.
