one of the areas i know i need to improve on in trad archery is arrow set up, tuning and basic knowledge. Ken Thornill helped me out greatly today and explained many aspects of arrow tunning as well as teaching me how to fletch them! many thanks my friend!!! had a great time shooting and learning at his house. akso was served a AWESOME lunch by his wife! ole Thorny is EXACTLY what this site is all about, helping, teaching and taking your time with others to help them become better. thanks again!

Sounds like you guys had a great day tuning and fletching arrows. I can't think of a better way to spend a day!
