Spining arrows for short bows?

do you think that stus calculator will work well so far out of range? (BTW, in a recent thread, Knoll pointed out that 3rivers has an online version of stus calculator on their webpage.)

I agree that trial and error is the final test. what else is there to consider besides nock/fletching clearance at the handle?

aaron:
not sure what you mean by "so far out of range". With stu's calculator you can input all the above variables and more.
Besides nock and fletching clearance, the other thing to watch for is arrow flight. Any arrow leaves any bow with a bit of wobble. This wobble should straighten out within the first 10 yards. The arrow should stick into the target straight- perpendicular to it's flight.

redhillwoods:
thanks so much for all your responses everyone. It seems like trial and error is the way.
Man this is such a valuable forum
