feather problems
Ok here is the thing, i put 3 inch feathers on my arrows. I also stuck a new whisker for my biscuit on my bow. well when i went to shot the bow was way off. well i sighted it in. But it is not getting good groups and i can shot the arrow 2 times and one time will shot ok the way of. I was using 4 inch plastic vanes. Now does anyone no what might be wrong? I mean where they fletched wrong or somthing. I also turned the nock and it made it go on more and when i did not turn it, it was shotting way off.

RE: feather problems
This forum is more for traditional bows and set ups. Feathers are used by all. The bow tech forum would get you much better responses. As for your question, im not sure. Ive never used a biscut on my compounds. Ive set some up and ill suggest that you retune for the feathers. That is if you decide to switch to all feathers. The dynamics will be different between feathers and vanes, so which ever you choose, you need to tune the rest and bow to them and not switch. I say that, because a biscut is a contact rest, and due to that, the materials making contact will make a difference. Good luck.
