- Piggy Backing off of our last video, let's jump right in to bare shaft tuning your hunting arrows. This is an absolute MUST when tuning your bow, or setting up new arrows for the hunting season. We walk through how I like to do it and give some tips and tricks that may make your life easier heading into the next important step...walk back tuning. Make sure you do both! Stay Nocked Up.

Awesome! Looking forward to the broadhead tuning vid. I’m also shooting stingers this year.
Sweet! I’ll be doing broadhead tuning here in a couple weeks before I head out for September hunts 👍🏻
I was always told to set your center shot where your arrow is running through the center of your riser and then you bare shaft tune using your yolks or shimming the cams.
You are correct on the tuning part. Most compound bow center shot is 13/16 from the inside of the riser. Then yes ypu should shim cams and yoke tune as much as you can and move the rest micro to finish it off 👍🏻
Good video, thanks!
You bet!
Nice job, nice clean content, and would also like to hear about what setup you’re using, ie-(bow, arrows, rest, strings,etc) and also even short back story of setting, place and time, always cool to see who’s where and doing what, keep it up, send em’! 🏹
Thanks! Will do!
Thanks dude.
You bet!
digging the info.
Gracias amigo
It's best to nock tune your arrows before bare shaft tuning. Just turning your nock can eliminate a significant tear and a lot of the time it doesn't correlate with the spine at all.
👍🏻
Thats how ive done it for years also. Doesnt matter what head you put on now, itll fly straight. People say fixed blades dont fly but thats bullshit. They dont fly if the arrow comes off sideways 😂
Amen!
Do I need to do this with every arrow change? Currently I’m using a GT hunter 400…. And I’m wanting to switch it up to a “high end” arrow in the excess weight of 500+grains when built…
Yes I would recommend it. Even if you keep the spine the same which will be your biggest factor in tuning, changing the weight up from out back and the gpi of the arrow COULD all have factors in the tuning process for your bow set up. Just a piece of mind when changing arrows that is worth it!
I’m getting a bit of a nock high bare shaft tear in the paper would raising the rest some correct that?
Yes that is correct. However if you have to raise it more than just a smidge you should retie and move your Dloop down. Good luck!
I’m interested to know what your center shot is
What would you like to know about it?
Instead of changing your center shot, why not tune it in by moving your cams?
100% an option that you could do. I like to start here with bare shaft tuning through paper. Then if I am not getting the results I need out of tweaking the rest, then I would back up and move the cam. But I have no reference point if I just move over the cam to begin with.
Great video for guys without the equipment but id highly recommend swapping out the top hats instead of moving from exact center shot i just seem to have better success when it comes to broadheads later on when i start from 13/16 but both ways will work i just don't like my rest not being at 13/16 my phase 4 is 1/4" left of center shot if i tune it with factory top hats i moved to mid size and its 1/2 line from 13/16 so thats why i buy a pack anytime i upgrade
Totally agree with you. Moving the rest should be a micro adjust (as it was here for me, I only had to move a minimal distance) I like to start here with the bare shaft tuning then if I am way off head up the top hats as you mentioned, then back to paper to make the fine adjustments. Thanks for your comment!
PS. - I want to say how much I appreciate the comment in the form of a conversational statement to discuss about instead of a "hey you are an idiot and didn't talk about that" Can't show all 489 things that go in to every part of archery in one 10 minute video. Chances are most comments from most knowledgeable people like yourself are correct, I just wasn't specifically talking about that portion of the archery spectrum in this video. So thanks for giving me a chance to explain and agree with you! Seems like everyone so far on CZcams has done this (there will always be some bad apples) but I run in the all the TikTok coaches on that platform, so this comment was refreshing, so thanks!

That was 6 yards or 6 feet?
Should be 6 feet. Misspoke in the video. But yards would be too much. My mistake. Thanks for your question.
