Arrow woes

<< < (2/2)

Ai t that the truth Pat. Arrows are just tools if the archer. Keep playing with them until they shoot. Most or cane arrows shoot totally different with broadheads for me. Ieven try to use my hunt arrows for anything but hunting. If your getting a big wag (arrow paradox) you got underspined arrows!

My rule is same as the oldtimers. Shoot a slightly stiff arrow for hunting. Never was there more wisdom said when shooting wood shafts hunting. If your arrow is way weak but shoots ok with broadhead when it impacts you quarry the arrow Wags bigtime. What happens? You loose major penetration.

I almost always shoot a spine or two up and add weight up front. Same setup works for most my hunt weight bows i shoot.

Good Shooting

Pat B:
Many folks consider the bow as the most important aspect of archery when in fact the bow is only the propulsion device and any bow will shoot an appropriate arrow well but not every arrow will fly from any bow. To me the arrow and understanding the dynamics of arrows is way more important for a good shooting set up.
Learning to make good arrows is a lot of work but absolutely necessary for good arrow flight.
