arrow flight

paper tune says nock is fine but shaft is dipping way low when shot

Sorry, I thought your fletched arrows were flying left of your intended target. Then they would have been stiff.  According to Ken Beck's video (Black Widow) on tuning.

Adcock says bare shafts grouping a little low and right at twenty yards is perfect as fletching will stiffen them a bit.

i would like to shoot some heavy weight up front thats why i went to a 340 spine, why would arow fly better witha 250 grain head versus the 200 even if 200 is impacting left of bareshafts?

If your arrows are hitting to the left of "the line" That does indicate a stiff arrow and the nocks may be leaning right as well.With an experienced archer. Now if Fletched arrows are  grouping to the left of bare shaft groups the arrow is week. You are absolutely right. The optimum word is grouping. You can't mix up the difference in bare and fletch grouping with where you are hitting the target. The comparison is for tuning in your case, where you hit is all on you. You also said sometimes they hit left. Pay no attention to sometimes,only groups count. Even if both bare and fletched groups are hitting way left or way right. That is on you. It is the comparison between groups that show stiff or week. It sounds like you need to quit pulling your hair out over tuning and just shoot for a while. It is hard to explain but you have your facts right. I wish I could post pictures or sketches it would be much easier. Page 6 of-- Easton Arrow Tuning Guide--  - has a picture. Surely there are some on line. Just enjoy shooting for a while it will all come together one day.        Ken

Kyle, you're trying to solve a lot of things at once; that's a sure fire way to add frustration. Does your shelf show wear, along with wear on the wraps? That's likely to be nock height, bow grip, or finger pressure distribution on the string. It's not spine or point weight.

Where are your silencers? Your broad heads hitting low, as I recall... try moving your lower silencer up a little higher on the string.

FIRST, though - try adjusting the form issues, one thing at a time, and see how that affects the issue. And try to solve one issue before jumping to another. That's just how it works. Patience and persistence.

It's supposed to be enjoyable.
