    Could be.

    Might be the camera angle, but those pics make it look like you have a way stiff arrow.
    I've done all this myself pretty much. Had some great advice from some members here but really just kinda winging it, lol.

    No "tuning" whatsoever. Bow hit good from my initial set up (well, 2nd set up - changed arrows & limbs) so I went with it.

    I'm shooting 31" carbon express micro 340s (bone collector) with 3" feathers and 175gr Steelforce 2 blade CoC heads. Bows sposed to be 45# @ 28" but no idea what it is at my draw length or even what length I'm actually drawing. I'd guess 29-30".

    I need to get w a pro and set it up right. But.... no time, lol.

    And.... I was shooting at a slight angle in the 1st pic. Arrows generally stick in perty straight.

          < 10 yds !

          Why can't these be booners?

          Or least a spike.

            Clip a clothes pin on your arrow just outside the shelf and draw your bow to your anchor. Make sure you get your normal full expansion. Measure from clothes pin to throat of nock on arrow. Do it several times to get an average (most of us aren't perfectly the same each time). That will give you your draw length.
            Good luck hunting.

              No recovery.

              30-40 Pigs came in at dark. Would been too dark for compound sights..
              Followed blood through thick crap for 80 yds. Then another 80 through waist high pasture grass.

              Light petered out. Might look again when i get down.

              0 so far this am.

                          Well, what’s the verdict? Did you find the pig?

                            Nope. Lost blood 50 yds from where I had the mule parked. Wide open waist high pasture. Drove it in small grids on SXS but nothing.
