Bare shaft tuning and canting: Interesting results

If you normally shoot the bow straight up and down the regular quadrant of a "+" would hold true to get your results. The bow would match the vertical axis. So if you cant the bow your quadrant should rotate more like and "X" kinda of.... I hope that is clear?
If you have a TRULY tuned arrow and GOOD form... I don't care how you hold your bow it WILL shoot a PERFECT bareshaft!

I agree, although I've never tried it with an  extreme cant.  With a perfectly vertical bow it's easier to read the results at the target, but if you don't normally shoot with a vertical bow it's kind of meaningless.  I think it's best to tune the way you shoot most of the time otherwise you risk tuning to a slightly different draw length or alignment, besides you probably won't shoot as well vertical if it's not your usual position...further skewing your results.

if canting, and one idls  doing it correctly, why would one shorten their draw leength ?

So if your bow and arrows are properly bare shaft tuned, and your hunting,  what  does  one  do if they have to cant the bow or hold the bow straight up for the shot ?
