    I look @ it Andrew as a stable platform. Javelins are made weight forward & adds consistency on throws as well as penetration into the ground. You can't measure a throw or shot that doesn’t stick upon impact. Waiting for the rain & lightning to leave to get a few shots in. If its not that way its too muggy & buggy to even be outside. Horrible summer so far which means I'm going to have to play catchup when the weather turns for the better.

      These arrows are flying alot better with the 120grn up front and with the spin vanes. For the price, these arrows are great. Sound like you are only going to get a few month of shooting this year. I get annoyed when we have a few days of rain. This winter, so far, has been quite dry with little wind. It's been chilly for here 😁 but not too bad and we have had some great days for shooting. If I have been well, I guess my average is about 100 arrows 5 days a week. My issue is my target is being shot to bits. I have a new one coming but it has been delayed on the ship from Europe. These first world issues....🤣

      Now this is why I like to see what everyone is shooting. For me, even shooting 40lb with Victory VAPs I shot a 600 spine with 140 grn points, and they only just tunes. For 36lb, both Elong and Pandarus Icepoints tune a bit on the stiff side, but very close at 700 spine. Arrow are 28.5" carbon to carbon with 120 grn points in the 700 spine. You must have a long draw length and that is why the 500 spine works.

Using the full length 500 spine, the theory is, as I move up in limbs, I can cut it down to match the 38 and the 46 lbs limbs. I’m planning to cut 1.5” (1/4” at a time) off when I get the 38lbs Cornerstone. I should be 30.5” I’m planning to use 100gn points if I need further tuning.

      I see. Should work well. I have just changed some 100grn points in my 800 spine arrows for 120grn. It made the arrows stiffer... guess the extra length of point inside the arrow is making it stiffer than the change in point weight should make it weaker.

Hope you feel better soon. I think I may have had the beginning of another cold but plenty of vitamin c has helps. I shot a fita 18m yesterday and only shot a 521. Felt off, but today felt a lot better. Did about 150 arrows and was good even though it was a bit chilly for us (nothing like you get). Hope the glasses work well for you.

Just me and how I hold my arm to keep my shoulder down. This is one of the things I say when asked about coaching. Everyone is different, and you need to see the archer shooting to find out what their differences are. It's funny because it turns out I had been holding my grip incorrectly for years. It's good now and a lot more consistent.

    I’ve been thinking about your inconsistency. Have you tried Knock Tuning? Turn the knock 45 degree and repeat the test with that one arrow. The theory is….in this imperfect world, carbon arrows are pressed around a rod, it’s formed inside a tube (that’s the popular perception). If the inner rod is slightly imperfect, you’ll have a thicker wall on one side…the stiff orientation. This is similar to tuning a wooden arrow where there is a stiffest direction The inconsistent stiffness in regard to the knock orientation, May bias the shaft for favouring a spin. I tested my victory arrows. From factory, they claim it’s “Spine Aligned”. All my bare shafts I’ve used so far is bare shaft and when tested, has a left spin. That’s my strange contribution

  • @shredfreak83
    @shredfreak83 Місяць тому

    it's the result of spine alignment in the shaft, basically where the seam of the carbon is that causes them to spin either left or right. unless you have a spine tester there's no obvious way to find it. Most high end arrows are spine aligned so make all of them idenctical with the printing that's on it. This is such a pointless endeavor though for target archery. The difference for me between 4" gas pro right spinwing vs 5" left wing feathers on a left clocking arrow is exactly 0 points on wa18 round. There's a good case to be made for hunting since you essentially have 2 sets of vanes, ie one being the broadhead up front that has to play along nicely with the vanes in the rear. Wich is why you just can't install inserts randomly but use the broadhead to aling everything up.

    From my experience of arrow clocking you need to be within 1m of the target to get a true reading. If you are any further away the arrow can "over-clock" and give the illusion of turning the wrong way! Try removing your long stabilizer and standing shooting so that the arrow barely clears the riser by a foot when it enters the target.

      ​@@brookvalleylife724 I tooo have no experience with clocking to learn their natural/preferred rotation.

Compare results, and verify direction of rotation. My understanding to the logic of the topic is that starting out at 5 metres already has a possiblity of 540° & 720° of rotation and such like.

    I wonder if the very slow rotation of a bareshaft has any measurable impact on accuracy when you consider that the spin vanes spin so much faster in whatever direction they prefer. Shore Shot Archery compared bareshaft spin to a bunch of spin-type vanes. He found the bareshaft rotated a bit in the first 2 m but then basically stopped rotating which isn't the case for spin vanes. That makes me think that the tiniest variation in form from shot to shot overwhelms any bareshaft rotation preference on shot accuracy by a large margin. Always good (and interesting) to explore theories like these.

      Well Andrew I've never done much clocking arrows but I've always fletched with the left wing helical & never the right. I have done alot of bare shaft tuning & I think once I keep turning the 1/8 of a turn in the right direction that I can always get the bare shaft eventually to hit the target @ 90*. Recently I found that with a riser shooting off the shelf I would get a nock high even though the shaft hit the target @ 90*. But the same string & bow with a NAP Flipper rest totally eliminated the nock high bare shaft. But I've never had left helical style fail me. But I have 2 different sets of arrows which I bought with right feathers on them. They are by far the worst grouping arrows I have & the spine is fine. 😮 So I will stay with left & the hell with the rest, including the MN Monsoon season here😮🎉😢.
