Getting poor arrow flight.....
« on: May 10, 2010, 08:49:00 PM »
Thought I had everything set up just right the other day. 61# @ 28" Hill Cheetah, Douglas fir shafts spined at 60/64 cut to 28.5" bop. 6 3/8" brace height with nock at 1/2" above. Saturday afternoon, they shot great. This afternoon they are porpoising, wig-wagging, and even corkscrewing to the target. I just can't imagine why everything would change from one day to the next.    :confused:  

I wonder if the south wind at 30 mph and gusting to 47 mph would have any bearing on arrow flight?????      :knothead:

fatigued I would guess...torque/bad release. It must be you!! LOL. Give it two or three days and try again. Check the brace again!
