arrow tune with quiver
« on: February 23, 2007, 09:36:00 AM »
Well I had my LB tuned perfect UNTILL I put a quiver (northern strap on model) on the bow......

Now before anyone hollers at me I tune using both paper tuning AND broadhead tuning.  I shoot paper to get a decent tear and then move to BH. I have plenty of bare shafts, but have never used that method.

I put the quiver on and it flies WAY different now(which I expected).  It went from shooting broadheads perfect and tearing less than 1/2" off in paper to tearing 3-4" at 10-11  on a clock face??????????

That is with my 145gr fp.  I then put on a 100gr point and it tore straight up about 2-3".  Now the tears are harder to read since I cant my bow while shooting and the tears are rotated instead of being perfectly strait up and down.

I guess the delima is the fact that the quiver seemed to make the arrows WEAKER????????  I expected the EXACT opposite?????  Anyway, I got some serious tuning to do before the SEMO hog hunt next weekend!!!!

thanks
citori

I use a GN Strap on and it does great things for setting down the bow just by the added weight. I never had the spine issue you appear to be having. Just wondering if the change in balance and weight make your grip and release change slightly and not that the spine is now too heavy.

Thanks for posting this Citori. I keep telling my son that the bow quiver will make a difference in the way the bow shoots. He just says, "Fred did it."
  He's never tuned his that fine before. So I guess he'd nver know the difference.
