Over spined.

(1/3) > >>

sleek:
If an arrow is over spined and shoots 4 inches left, should I just aim 4 inches right, or can I bend the arrow so its not straight, and bends in the direction I want it to shoot? I figure that may weaken it and make it paradox more. Any ideas?

Woody roberts:
I had/have a similar situation recently. Increasing my brace height seemed to help a lot. Except for one arrow. It shoots 20” left every shot. Ive tried different points from 100 to 200 gr. I have it painted a different color so if I hold it 20” right it will land just right.

I hope someone chimes in here that knows what their talking about. I also would like to know.

Pat B:
You can sand the center 1/3 of the arrow to weaken the spine. Bending an arrow will make it shoot worse.

sleek:
Its a cane shaft. I guess I'm just out of luck with that arrow then.

bjrogg:
You could add more weight to point. In future you could start out with long arrow that is underspined. Shoot it bearshaft and gradually shorten until you get good flight.
