Shot high but that's pretty good for me
Forgot to mention bow setup:
Bear takedown A riser, #1 limbs
47lbs@ 28 (i draw 29.5")
12 strand bcy-x string
I'm liking theses arrows! Been playing around, trying to get gaps all fingered out (i call my style instinctive gap, maybe really split vision, i focus probably 90% on target and 10% on arrow tip @ full draw). Shooting 3 under with my index finger on canine tooth as anchor, deep hook, I'm coming up with 40yds as my point on distance.
Wow, you're shooting 85/90# out of a bow that is what, maybe 52# at your draw length? Never ceases to amaze me how different peoples setups are.
Couldn't justify another order to 3 rivers, so i made my own redneck engineered roller straightener.

Works absolutely awesome. No scratching or scarring of poly. Better yet, no flat spots! I tried a round shaft screwdriver first, but if anyone recalls high school geometry, your only putting pressure on 1 finite point, the point of tangency. The roller spreads the load over a larger area, preventing flat spots.

This is the spine chart i used. My math came to about 70lbs adding what the chart says for a recurve with a high performance string. I maybe a little stiff, but they fly awesome as is. No kicking around or porpoiseing. Groups BH's and FP's as well as i can shoot out to 50yds (furthest I've shot them. Don't wanna lose one this soon! )
Those look great!
