Hi all,
Im trying to tune some arrows to my bow. Its a 67# @ 28" recurve and Im shooting Arrow Dynamics Trads, with 360gr up front.
I thought Id have to build the side plate out... but now its almost to the edge of the shelf...looks kinda silly actually, it must be over an inch thick of built up leather pieces! But if I get good arrow flight thats all I really care about.
Anyway Im still in the process of bare shaft tuning but wanted to know what effect building the plate out would have on arrow speed/efficiency...the arrow is at quite an angle when resting against the rest (im using a brush rest).
Any input is welcome, thanks!
Well it won't effect the speed at all, but it does tell me that your arrow is underspined for the bow. You might try a little less weight up front.

I guess your saying the 360 gr up front has made them so weak you need the shelf built out?
Bottom line is a arrow flying straight is the most efficient which should include speed.
Most carbon arrows are pretty easy to tune in, something sounds fishy and not refering to the arrow flight.

I agree that shaft is too weak. Either reduce point weight or cut the shaft down.

What everyone else said. It's easier to come down in point weight then to try to cut and tune a 1/4" at a time. 360 up front is some pretty serious weight.
