Yesterday I tried shooting some fletched arrows and 1 bare shaft at 40 yards to see how they grouped.
It was better than I thought but the bare shaft was coming in at different angles to the fletched. There’s 2 different groups attached.
Today I started nock tuning 4 arrows through paper at 6 yards and I am having some different results. first 3 tuned ok but I have never been one to be able to get a consistent bullet hole. But on average they were all a little nock high. The Last one started doing massive tears, mainly left over 1 inch. Couldn’t nock tune it out. I went back to the other 3 and they shot better but not as good as before. Somewhere along this process a monkey tail fell off. So I took the other monkey tail off to make things equal (ran out of spares). But they still shot poor. Would going from 2 monkey tails on the string to none impact the bow tune.
I also checked rest height with a square and found it to be very nock high. I do understand nock high is common with Hoyts but this looks a little extreme. Would raising the rest help with the bare shaft and fletched shaft groups/tune?
Cheers
