LifeNRA Posted June 30, 2007 Report Share Posted June 30, 2007 This wasnt as hard as I thought it would be. The first shot was tearing high and right. The second shot was done after I moved the nock down and moved the rest to the left. This is actually the fifth shot after making the same adjustments to the nock and rest. I dont think I can do anything else with it. It looks like I might be just a tad bit high yet. But it should be shooting better! Would you move the nock down even more??? I have a nock tool kit, it shows that the nock is sitting 1/16" above the zero mark. According to the directions, I should be 1/4". I think I need to invest in the Deluxe Whisker Biscuit, the one with the up and down adjustments. What do you all think??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VermontHunter Posted June 30, 2007 Report Share Posted June 30, 2007 Don't know John that looks pretty darn close to be fussing with.... Espicially with the Whisker Biskit Rest... Great Job !! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leo Posted July 1, 2007 Report Share Posted July 1, 2007 Now shoot a broadhead through the paper Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LifeNRA Posted July 1, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 1, 2007 Now shoot a broadhead through the paper Not to be funny, but why? I never seen anybody doing that. Besides, if the blades dont line up with the fletchings perfect. More than likely will cut a big hole. Just a guess! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arrow32 Posted July 1, 2007 Report Share Posted July 1, 2007 Looks dang good to me. John don't worry about the BH should shoot fine anyway you will throw a couple before season any how. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you want to know for sure then I suggest you try one. Sometimes it's ok and sometimes it's not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buckee Posted July 1, 2007 Report Share Posted July 1, 2007 All the experts say, a little nock high is no problem. It's the right, left and low you have to worry about. Looks good to me. I'd probably shoot a broad-head too, just out of curiosity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you want to know for sure then I suggest you try one. Sometimes it's ok and sometimes it's not. Well I know last year I got the FT and BH hitting the same mark. But I see where your coming from. Since I moved everything around a bit now. I should check. Thanks I just wanted to know why! But, if the blades are not aligned with the fletchings, will that be a problem?

buckee Posted July 2, 2007 Report Share Posted July 2, 2007 if the blades are not aligned with the fletchings, will that be a problem? That really depends on what type of broadhead your shooting, with your arrows. I've found they all act a bit different. I've never had a problems with my Montec G5's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wtnhunt Posted July 2, 2007 Report Share Posted July 2, 2007 Looks good John. if the blades are not aligned with the fletchings, will that be a problem? The heads will cut the paper cleaner than the vanes will. Should just leave more cuts still with the centered hole. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leo Posted July 2, 2007 Report Share Posted July 2, 2007 I've never done this with expandable heads. But in my experience with fixed heads. If everything is still good, the broadhead blades will typically leave the only cuts you see on the paper. This is because usually the cutting diameter of the broadhead is the same or larger than the "cutting" diameter of the fletching. Once the paper gets cut, the fletching doesn't cut it more, it just pushes the paper flaps out of the way. It really doesn't matter if the blades align with the fletching for this exercise. As a result you really won't be able to tell if the papertuning is perfect with broadheads. So trying to tune with them is basically futile. But if you do see a difference in the broadhead hole, you absolutely got a problem. If that happens. First, spin check your arrows (if you haven't already). Then start trying different broadhead styles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
