Sounds like a little tuning work is in order, particularly with brace height.
-
I would just make the strike plate a little thicker.
You're learning a very valuable point to buy strings from the same maker, or at minimum, made of the same material.
-
so should i increase the brace height? the string material is the same and same material.how can i make the strike plate thicker?
-
Did you buy a performance string? It sounds like you are getting better performance from the bow so the arrow is showing weak spine. Do you have puffs on the string? How far away from the target are you?
-
i was pulling the bow, my string kept hitting my arm and my brain was making me pull it right now im hitting where im looking. i kept hyper extending my elbow.
-
anyone help with the striker plate? would love to hear some options
-
Pull it off and put double sided carpet tape under it, one piece at a time until arrow moves to left.
-
Get some velcro for a strike,and put a shim behind it as needed. tooth pic or small piece of leather, or anything will work.
-
I usually take the heel of my hand and hit myself in the head a few times to readjust the sights. :bigsmyl:
-
Have often just temporarily attached a small piece of Velcro to the outside of the shelf plate to quickly verify that there is some marked improvement before actual side plate adjustments.
