Anyone like to shoot full length carbon arrows, Even if you end up with four inches of arrow beyond the bow ?
Reason I ask is I picked up a few new Carbon Express Blue Streak shafts, left them full length and used a 100 grain brass insert, 125 tips, and they are flying great out of my Big Jim Buffalo longbow.
Just looks a little funny sticking out that much, almost like a primitive rig.
I shoot all my arrows full length.
Mine are about 3" past the riser, but that is where they tune. And, I'm a little more accurate this way.
All my arrows stay full length. Saves me a step in cutting them.
With carbon arrows I let my tuning determine their final length,and most of them end up 2-3 inches long.I feel on bows cut off center it helps to have alitte longer carbon arrow.I bought some used ones a few years ago that were about 1" past my draw.They were showing stiff,so I thought to add more upfront weight.The more weight I added the worse they got.They were bouncing of the riser instead of flexing around it.So longer carbon arrows doesn't bother me at all,I were rather have them flying the way I want not how much overhang there is.
