Feathers can conceal poor tunning, how do the fletched and bare shaft group?

I shoot both. The sitka's are definately not as tough as the alaskans. I shoot a 54# longbow with a 27" draw. The sitkas shoot like darts but the alaskans are too stiff.. I shoot the alaskans out of my 60# bow.

I have bare shafted carbon tech, carbon express etc.. and none shoot as well for me out of my 54# as the stikas.

I cut them to 28.5 and use the brass inserts.

Worth every penny..

Got the Sitka to fly perfectly outta my ACS today-finally. Just lowered the nock point about 3/16 and all the bad flight characteristics melted away. Ended up at 600 grains which was my target weight. The Alaskan flew good too with the lower nock setting; but 700 grains is a bit heavy for my 49# bow.

He means how close they group together, Jacob. Remember the bare-shaft tuning I described to you? It's were you shoot a group of fletched arrows and a group of unfletched ones, and compare the two...

i was considering the grizzlystiks, but have heard they can only be shot into bag targets. do you guys shoot into bails or foam targets with these arrows?

Scot, I shoot them into foam, bags, 3D targets and deer.

TO, like bowspirit said, shoot 3 fletched and three bare shafts and if tuned will group very close with the bareshafts maybe slightly to the right(weak), paying attention to wear the point hits not the nock
