Das plunger laenght 5/8" ?? Help
« on: August 18, 2007, 02:17:00 PM »
I have been paper tuning my Das for about a week with the following set up

63# pull Win Ex Limbs
28.5" draw
7 and 3/8" Brace height
Cavalier T-300 rest and a plunger

After finall getting a feathers only hole I looked at the plunger and its extending 5/8" fronm the riser.
It seems that this is where the bow likes to shoot
I am using Carbon Tech Rhino arrows at 30" " i like them long"
Any of you have a Das that you are using a rest and plungers on ?? could you see if this way out of wack
I moved the plunger in 1/8" at  a time to ensure I did not pass the point.  the tear did get larger
Moved it back out and tear decreases??
Thanks for any input

If it shoots bullet holes then it doesn't matter. It you stiifen the spine buy reducing point weight or decreasing the arrow length you should have to move the plunger in to account for the increase in spine effect.  While I don't own a DAS, I built a Warf awhile back and used the DAS Shorty Plunger and this is what I learned in the process. Hope this helps but I think you have it figured out if your shooting without tears.  Have you tried to bareshaft tune it?

When I saw the title of this thread, I thought it was in German. My mistake. Sorry. just pretend I wasn't here.

Long, long afterward, in an oak I found the arrow, still unbroke;
And the song, from beginning to end, I found again in the heart of a friend.

Sounds like your way past center shot to me. Do a Google search for "Tuning for Tens". The instructions there explain it easier than I could.
