Paper Tuning your bow

[wvhunter129]

Well I was reading my old Archery Handbook by Chuck Adams and was reading on paper tuning your bow. I just wondered if anyone else did this?

I did mine today at 20 yards and here is the picture:



According to the book it appears that my bow is tune pretty good. This photo shows that I have no problem with fishtailing or the other thing (whatever it is called) where you arrow goes up and down instead of fishtailing side to side.

So far I am very pleased with my New Martin Jaguar bow. Very quite and very fast.

Looks good 2me. I shot tonite and was all over the place. Even broke a Carbon Arrow

I just set up a new rest on my bow today and paper tuned as well. I shot bullet holes at about 10 feet but ran out of light to shoot some groups. I'll sight it in again tomorrow.

I built a paper tuning frame a few weeks ago and have tuned both of my bows. You're not going to get the most out of your set up if you arrows aren't flying straight. I would suggest everybody do it. If you don't want to do it at home....go to a local archery shop. They will have a set up and will help you do it.

I was referenced to the Easton site for some information on tuning.

Below is a link to download the PDF file that is in zip format for the Arrow Tuning and Maintenance Guide. It is, I think a 32 page manual packed full of information.

Hope it okay to post the link.
