Took a trip to a well known archery shop to get a new rest and have the bow tuned. My original plan was to have the bow paper tuned and then bare shaft tuned, which would be a first for me.
For some reason the guys at the shop had a hard time paper tuning the bow. Thankfully it was a slow day and they wouldn’t accept mediocracy and kept tweaking things until it was shooting bullet holes. They ended up having 3 guys working on it for 4 hours. In the end adding 25 grains to the points is what did the trick.
After all that the bare shafts were way off of the fletched arrows. Before we even started none of them were thrilled about the idea of bare shaft tuning, so I decided to be thankful for the service they had provided and leave it be.
I haven’t shot broadheads yet, but is the bare shaft tuning something I should pursue?
