BowEd:
Oh yea I found I can really go down in length of my feathers too.Down to 4" at the moment.

 I think PAT SAID IT ALL WHEN HE SAID DO'NT OVER THINK YOU PRIMITIVE ARROWS. Just hunt with them. If it shoots out of my bow and I shoot it ok I hunt with it.

JackCrafty:
You are right about the youtube videos not mentioning tuning.  My own videos have not dealt with that subject either but I will address that issue soon.

The problem with trying to explain arrow tuning is that everyone shoots differently.  If I tell you how I tune mine, you might try the method and then say, "I'm lost.  I'm not getting anywhere near the same result even though I am following the method exactly".  This complaint applies to everything from hunting techniques, to flintknapping, to tanning leather.

Right now I'm trying to figure out the easiest way to tune an arow, kind of like I did with the arrowhead notching video I made.  It took a while to remove all the "chaff" before I could get to those little seeds of knowlege that work.
