Bare shaft tuning question

[Matador]

So those of you that bare shaft tune do you paper tune with a fletched arrow first? Then bare shaft tune the target impact angle? One or the Other? Do you bare shaft through paper?

I bareshft tune out to 40 yards.. I don't shoot paper . I try to watch the flight of the arrow with a lighted nock.. when it looks like a Lazer and hit with my fletched I can shoot just about any broadhead.

you may be "porpoising" a bit. Step back a bit and see if it changes.

As mentioned above, if that is a bag target I would try it with a foam (solid broadhead) target and see how it looks.

And make sure the target does not move. I put a cinder block on top of my block target to insure it doesn't move.

I finally got around to paper tuning my bow and my rest was like 1/8” off. I almost got it tuned but it started raining. Good thing too because these poor ole mosquitoes were getting parched from not having any rain the past 12 hours.

Nock low and left.
Seems kinda variable degrees of such. Watch your grip...but something else is off. Maybe.

What have done mechanically for tuning so far during paper tuning? What has worked and what hasnt?

Good luck MrHighspeed.

I’ve moved the rest to the left. I got a little more to move it but it started raining. I’ll adjust the D-loop when I get the rest aligned. So far the rest adjustment has worked great in getting the tear remedied

[highspeed]

Well...looks like I need to take it to a shop. Can’t get the left tear out of it. Got the D-loop centered so it’s just a left tear now.

Good luck....Chasing tail. For as much as I dont like chasing tail...I do it alot.

You figuring on shimming cams? Buying new shafts? String adjustment?

I’ve got a lighter spine arrow that I’m going to try first. If that doesn’t fix it, then I’m going to adjust the yoke.

[Briar Friar]

Cool. If doing that you might consider changing point weight on existing shafts...up some and down some. See what shakes out in grouping and paper.

Tell us what bow, draw length, arrow spine and length, and poundage.

Glad to see you got some rain. We were in a 6 hour drought and I considered using my sprinkler system, but by luck, it came a downpour.
