    Walk back tuning in a confined space

    I have been reading about walk back and French tuning. I have set up my new Diamond Deploy and paper tuned it. I live in a fairly harsh HOA community and don’t think people will appreciate shooting from the middle of the cul de sac down the side yard. I’ll be limited to 28 yards in my back yard (trampoline is in the way). Is this good enough for the final adjustments? What increments are good for checking? 3, 5, 10, 15, 20, 25? Too many?


    Fresh out of the package before I put the QAD on it (Diamond’s bubble wrap is really loud):

        Modified French Tuning can be done in your garage.

        1) setup a target bag so the bullseye is at YOUR exact shoulder height.

        2) hang a string with a weight on the end to pull the string tight.

        3) adjust the string so it SPLITS the bullseye right down the middle

        4) STEP BACK to 72-inches

        5) YUP, only 6 feet.

        6) Load a field point arrow

        7) fire at the string

        8) BE REALLY PICKY...you want to split the fibers of the string into a left and right side....just NEXT to the string is NOT good enough.

        ONLY ADJUST THE SIGHT PIN WINDAGE...JUST TINY LEFT TO RIGHT ADJUSTMENTS TO THE SIGHT PIN ONLY,
        when shooting at a distance of 6 feet

        9) ok, you split the string into a left and right side...pinned it perfectly.

        10) NOW, back up to ANY CONVENIENT LONGER DISTANCE

        For YOU, might be 12 feet
        or could be 19 feet
        or could be 22 feet
        or could be 29 feet
        or could be 33 feet....

        WHATEVER longer distance is CONVENIENT for you.

        11) NOW, if you are in NO DANGER of destroying arrows,
        fire a 3 arrow group.

        Size is not important.

        Only thing that matter is the CENTER of your 3 arrow group.

        IS THE CENTER OF YOUR ARROW GROUP
        CENTERED AROUND THE BULLSEYE?

        12) IF NOT, then ONLY MOVE THE ARROW REST,
        at the longer CONVENIENT shooting distance.

        Just move the arrow rest a skosh,
        and keep firing arrow groups
        until your 3 arrow group is CENTERED on top of the bullseye
        at the CONVENIENT TO YOU longer distance.

        13) NOT done yet

        14) Fire a single field point arrow at the string
        at a DISTANCE OF 72-INCHES.

        ONLY adjust the sight pin windage (left to right adjustment)
        until you can split the string fibers again.

        NEXT to the string is not good enough.

        15) OK, you can split the string fibers again.

        16) YOU know what comes next.

        17) Go back to the CONVENIENT TO YOU longer distance.

        18) Fire a 3 arrow group.
        ONLY adjust the ARROW REST at the CONVENIENT TO YOU longer distance.

        Keep making tiny adjustments to the ARROW REST at the longer distance,
        until the 3 arrow group is CENTERED on top of the bullseye.



        DO this back and forth,
        several times,
        and then you should be good to go at ANY distance.
