yup I do shoot them out to 40 yards Rack-attack...I am a fanatic when it comes to fine-tooning my equipment.

So you are saying that you bareshaft tune with (fixed I assume) broadheads????? I hope not.[:' (][:' (]. That is extremely dangerous.

RE: weird paper tune
 

Sorry....I do install fletching on before using the Broadheads.....3" feathers straight fletched.

RE: weird paper tune
 

Yep. It' s no big trick to bareshaft to 40 yards with field points. I' ve done it even with fingers release, just goofing around. Might be problematic if you' re running a low FOC though.

Arthur - some good points..... I am a tuning freak and i need to learn more about FOC. I too get paper panic and try a lil too hard when I am shootin paper during tuning... I also get a lil tense bare shaft testing...... I like blending it all... then see how I group at 40, I try and forget WHERE I am hitting (while tunoing) and concentrate on simply shooting to see how my bow is reacting to my setup......

RE: weird paper tune
 

One more thing - Art you bare shaft at 40 ? Wow I must be doing something wrong.... Im scared to do it past 20-25 because (dont laugh) I messed up a few !!carbons last year at 30 yards - it wasnt pretty !!

RE: weird paper tune
 

Now thats a little better - I can also get bare shafts to hit well out to 40 with " field points" , I don' t think it is nessessary, or really tells you much - but I do it just to do it:)

Sounded like you were doing it with fixed heads - that I would like to see:D:D

RE: weird paper tune
 

Like R-a said, bare shafting at 40 yards doesn' t tell you much that bare shafting at 20 won' t. I' ll fling a bareshaft downrange to 40 yards once in awhile just for the helluvit. If it goes squirrely, I know it' s time for a touchup tune.

If you absolutely CAN' T get a bareshaft to fly straight beyond 20-25 yards, then something is off somewhere. I' d suspect arrow spine or too low an FOC.
