Tuned by string change

I couldn't get my blacktail( 54@27,62inch 3555 29in 175pnt 100grn insert footed w 2117) to tune with the D-97 strings,it always bare shafted a little more than slightly weak but grouped well. I picked up a B50 string and with everything else the same(brace nock location ect) I started seeing great
groups and bare shafts flying
less creep?

I'm not savvy enough man. But out of curiousity, why not back off on point weight or insert weight or move your silencers out a tad?

I have 4 bows that all shoot the same arrow set up only this one is a problem child( I know tune the arrow to the bow) just was wondering if B-55 or others might give the same forgiving arrow flight with out the creep?

B-55 has slightly less creep, but it's not a big difference. An overbuilt Dynaflight '97 might do the trick, and/or add heavy/extra silencers to the string you have.

Had a similar problem I picked up a Lil Hoots that had a skinny string on it and was getting bad arrow flight from arrows that should be flying good, changed to a D97 string built up the face plate a tad everything was good.....stabow

side plate works as does different strings, but you would be surprised what different types and sizes of silencers will do.
