Does anyone else think larger feathers (5inch) or 4 fletch (4in x 4) is more forgiving of a poor release, versus my current 3 fletch 4 inch (RW Helical) feathers?
For more info, I’m shooting a 19inch riser Hoyt Satori with long limbs 50# @ 28. At my 31 in DL it’s pulling right at 62 on the drawboard. Arrows are full length Black Eagle vintage 350s with 100gr brass inserts and 125gr points. Broadheads are 135gr Simmons Landsharks.
With my Mcaap hunt coming up I’ve been shooting recurve every day and haven’t touched my compound.
I switched to 3 under a few years ago and dabbled in trad but it’s only been this year that I’ve sat down the compound. Anyhow, my nock point seems a little higher than I’d like but it’s been shooting Broadheads with field points at the same POI.
Here’s my question though. Every now and then, I notice I get arrows porpoising down range. The arrow corrects itself before getting to the target but I can definitely say that it’s the shots that just don’t “feel” right that tend to have that awkward flight. I am also running a clicker.
Do any of y’all think that running bigger feathers or 4 fletch would correct faster on a poor release?
