Do you go through this while getting better?

[FrankM]

I thought my arrows were pretty good. Then I was able to improve my form. Now my arrows don't seem to fly like I want, so I changed them again. Do you find that as you get better, you retune your arrows/bow/etc?

[Night Wing]

What some call "re-tune", I call "fine tune". I usually end up dropping a few grains of weight while raising the brace height. This allows me to still shoot the same spine arrow.

[FrankM]

Yeah, I should say they flew decent enough, but I tweaked them a little and they fly a bit better now.

Thats why i keep a bareshaft from all sorts of arrows i use. This way i can easily see if something has changed and if i need to make adjustments.

Had to do it three rimes in the last year as my form is steadily improving (i hope).

[Caleb Andes]

Had my arrows flying perfect but my groups werent as tight as I wanted them. Made a form master lengthened my draw length and had to retune (fine tune) im shooting much better now

[BWD]

Yep...it really gets good when the arrows you started out with wind up being too shoot, due to an increase in draw length. Takes a little more than fine tuning to correct that situation.  

It will teach you not to worry about a little excess shaft hanging out in front of your riser.

I have found consistent, perfect arrow flight has to do with your bow and the string. When you have a bow that will shoot well no matter how you hold it and a string that settles in quick and stops stretching you can shoot it upside down and get perfect flight most all the time no matter how its gripped. These bows you can hang up strung for six months and take it down and it will throw them perfectly as the day you put it up. These also make the best hunting bows in my opinion as you very rarely get a perfect situation that you can duplicate your form from the target range.

I've seen that archers who have really good consistent form from years of disciplined practice seem to be able to shoot a wider range of spines from the same bow. It is almost frustrating to watch. They can pick up a bow, grab a handful of arrows and shoot great groups.

[Bow Bum]

I'm kinda with PA on this one. When my form is good. I can shoot 145-200 grain BH's ont he sam eshaft and they all look great in flight.

I've also shot some bows that really seem to fit me well and feel more consistent than what I currently have.

Still saving money for one of those.

I've had to tweak my form alot more than my arrows though. Almost any arrow will fly well with good form.
