    This is something ive never done before, and had some un-fletched arrows. What am I looking for? What adjustments?

    First you will want to make sure centershot is dead on as well as spine.Measure 13/16" to center of shaft from inside of shelf. Then move on to walk back or french tune. (I prefer french tune)

    Bareshaft tune is not much more than yoke tuneing. If your shooting to the right with the bareshaft, then twist the left side of the yoke to bring the bareshaft to the fletched. Make sure the timing is correct as well.

    There's the guy I've been waiting on to chime in. :tu:

    Would you really not worry with bare shaft tuning?

    I was getting the nock end kicking **edit left upon entering target, what does that tell you? I have been reading the east on tuning guide as well.

    If you have the equipment and know how, then by all means go for it. It does make for a very giid shooting rig. The difference is noticed with broadheads.


    I've have done it but it isn't a must do for me. BUT I can get a pretty good tune without doing it.
