Just a quick question
« on: August 02, 2009, 11:10:00 PM »
We made a arrow cutoff saw, and I was wondering if it is ok to cut them if they are already fletched up. Will it work ok?? I seem to thinks. I need to cutt some before hunting season and get them ready. thanks

Yes, just figure your length from the valley of the nock to an inch past the point to allow for the taper.  Measure twice, cut once.
Good judgement comes from experience.  Experience comes from bad judgement.

As long as you cut from the front of the arrow...    :bigsmyl:    

Oh, and if you are using carbon or aluminum where you use an insert, screw your broadhead into the insert before gluing it in if you want to have the head lined up a certain way.  First batch of carbons I ever did I had broadheads pointing every which way when I started screwing them in.  Ticked me off I didn't think of it in advance.

I've come to believe that the keys to shooting well for me are good form, trusting the bow to do all the work, and having the confidence in the bow and myself to remain motionless and relaxed at release until the arrow hits the mark.

Thank you I'll give it a try. I cut some last night and turned out ok, so I wanted to ask this question before I started cutting the rest of my arrows. Thanks  :)
