Arrow Tuning with Hill Style
« on: May 29, 2011, 08:53:00 AM »
I am just finishing up a new set of POC arrows I intend to shoot out of my Northern Mist Shelton. The bow is 50#@28". My draw is 27". I use both paper tuning and the planing method of shooting 3 fletched and 3 unfletched arrows to tune. I do have a spine tester and see a difference as much as 6# between the shafts. I can shoot respectable groups with the fletched arrows but there is a clicking noise when I shoot from the arrow bouncing off of the rest. The rest is showing wear from where this is happening on the outside corner of the rest. I have pictures showing this. What would you suggest?

From what I can see on the picyure you included, I assume you mean the strike plate and if that is the case I would slowly raise brace height by 1 or 2 string twists at a time and see if it does not go away. From what you describe of how you have tuned and the way the bow is shooting I would expect the problem to go away rather quickly.

I agree slowly raise your brace height. Should clear up.
