We just started an archery program in our Church using Centershot/NASP materials and equipment.
I'd like to get the bows shooting as good as I can using the NASP arrows(uncut 2018 with vanes)
I realize there will be trade-offs using universal bows and arrows, any help will be much appreciated.

We had out first night with the teens last night. We had 17 youth come out, many with no archery experience, we had a good time.

While I don't have any Genesis bows for my program (yet) I often borrow them from our local range when we have large numbers of small/new kids show up. The Genesis bow is outstanding for use by multiple novice shooters due it's universal draw length, lack of cam timing, etc. But these same attributes start to become a detriment to the shooter as they become more advanced... "It is what it is" To that end, I'd go ahead and tune it like I would a recurve, once you have your rest adjusted left/right & up/down and nock point installed for decent centershot, that is really all there is to it. Since you only are shooting one specific arrow it should be a bit easier, except for the different draw lengths and their effect on dynamic centershot.
