One arrow shoots consistently high

<< < (3/5) > >>

artcher1:
Just like an arrow that flexes around a handles it also flexes over the hand or shelf ( to certain extent) from the initial thrust of the release of the string. Think of it in these terms, if an arrow is too stiff it flies wide. Same with an arrow that is to stiff on the shelf/hand side. It could be other issues like the nock or bent/weak nock end of the shaft. But if you flip the arrow over and it shoots low then look into weakening the shelf side.

Pat B:
Hey Art. Good to see you here.  :OK  Hey to the old gang for me.

artcher1:
Good to see you here too Pat! Will be seeing the gang this weekend for a shoot. Will say hello for you.

DC, if you have a spine tester, check the deflection right in front of the fletching (hang your weight here) against one of your arrows that flies true.

sleek:
Cut a new nock 90 degrees. Sounds like the stiff side isnt against the bow.

DC:
The spine is the same at all positions within a pound or two. I'll try checking the spine close to the fletch but this is a tapered Hemlock shaft and the others are Bamboo. If that makes any diff.
