Can you sight in a bow for long range using a ballistic calculator and an indoor range?

- This time I trusted the math using a personally developed ballistic calculator I sighted in my new bow and sight at a 15 yard range. After finding the correct sight tape we went to a large range outside to test it. Turns out the math was right. This has been the easiest bow sight in I have ever done.
Best sight tapes. Easy sight tapes.

“What I’m looking for on bare shafts is are they plum to the target”. Yes, me too.
How’d I do bare shaft flying true?
@@Lucas_Palmer_bownerd_engineerI’m not asking that but I will answer it, normal tuning with rest and anchor point and properly spined arrow. Bare shaft tuning is just like paper tuning but more definitive. It’s easy to see if bare shaft is pointing in same direction as fletched shafts. Get that correct at 20 yds or farther and you will know your bow is well tuned for those arrows.
@@TheBladeSled haha no not at all I was asking in your opinion how do the bare shafts look in the video? 👍 I know you were just quoting me. It’s all good! Thanks for watching! 🙏😁
@@Lucas_Palmer_bownerd_engineerit’s hard to tell in the video. But I trust yours are parallel to the fletched arrows. Keep up the great videos!
@@TheBladeSled thanks for the feedback, next time I’ll try to capture that a little better. I appreciate the support on these videos! Take care
Happy to say I’m a new subscriber, great video, cant wait to see your upcoming testing as it progresses! God Bless!
Thanks for subbing! Lots more testing to come. I appreciate the support.
I’ve always wanted to make a indoor chart that you can shoot long distances inside at 20yards
Honestly I was quite surprised how well this worked out! I hope to be able to release the calculator soon, so that everyone can use it as well. Thanks for watching!
I love your technical approach, I figured this had to work if it worked for firearms. Nice work! Would love to test it once you can make it available and would support your work!
Thank you! I appreciate the support!
Great video 👍 good thing for me if my sights are off it’s me because my recurves and long bows are sightless 👍😂🤣😂🤣😮🏹🎯🙏😇❤️🇺🇸
Right on! One of these days I’m going to get a nice recurve or longbow something traditional!
@@Lucas_Palmer_bownerd_engineer just made the transition in December of 2023 full trad now and loving the simplicity of it all! Just keep enjoying your archery whatever you are shooting!👍🏹🎯😁🫵
God Bless you and your family 🙏😇❤️🇺🇸
I picked up a omp strata a few years back, I enjoy shooting both the strata and my compound.
Totally interested, great stuff….👊🏻🏹
Cool, thanks for the feedback, and for watching! Take care!
Thank you
You're welcome!
Bare shaft at that distance is amazing! Nice work
Thanks 👍 I may not be the best shot but I'm a stickler for a tuned bow. haha
@@Lucas_Palmer_bownerd_engineer same, looking forward to seeing how you move forward with the app/ballistics calculator, it's very impressive
do you work for or talk with MFJJ since you are shooting at his range?
I do not work for Josh. However, I have talked to him many times. He is very knowledgeable.
How do I get my hands on this ballistic calculator? No, I don’t mind walking back and forth 60yds while sighting in my bow but for quickness I much rather walk the 15yds and get the same results.
I built this calculator personally, I’ll do a video coming up on how it works. I’m currently trying to figure out the best way to provide a secure download or web version for everyone to use.
That’ll be awesome. With my wife and little boy bow hunting and shooting 3D we’re always swapping stuff around. This would help out tremendously!
Does your ballistic calculator have aerodynamic drag included?
Yes, I’ve incorporated drag, vane geometry and fletch angle and drag, all shaft geometry, you can also account for shaft flex if you are shooting trad, or a weaker spine shaft out of a compound. I’ll do a complete video on in soon.

What ballistic calculator program?
I built this calculator personally, I’ll do a video coming up on how it works. I’m currently trying to figure out the best way to provide a secure download or web version for everyone to use.
Interesting. What ballistic calculator did you use. I wpuld like to experiment with that.
Thanks for the comment, so I used a Ballistic program I am currently building for archery. Video link below explaining some of the features the calculator will have.

However this calculator mimkr.bplaced.net/bc/ will provide some approximate numbers if you want to play around with it.
You can't change as many variables on this calculator so it's less accurate and it is based on an a different approximation approach. Mine is an integral solver of the drag formula.
Any further questions I would be happy to help.
Take care,
Lucas
@@Lucas_Palmer_bownerd_engineer Thanks for the reply. I am wanting to do what you did, zero at 20, then calculate a 60 yard zero POI to find a sight tape. I'll try what you suggested.
@@SWMissouriOutdoors I didn't show it in the video but make sure you are shooting with your bow as level as possible. If you shoot at an angle it changes quite a bit. 👍
@@Lucas_Palmer_bownerd_engineer Got it, I see at 60 yards I should have about 40" of drop. But hoe do I calculate my POI at 20 using a 60 yard pin. Would I need to have my arrow hit 40" high at 20 yards?
@@Lucas_Palmer_bownerd_engineer 28" with .3" diameter arrow, 2" × .5" plastic fletchings, 404gr total weight, chrono at 298fps.
