Hi,
I have tuned my bow to GT Ultralight 400 perfectly (almost).
My Border Hex6bb2 and Moon riser are 35@31".
As you can see in the picture my old arrows Ultralight 31 ¼" and screw in 125 gr. point looks perfect, but my "new" arrows, Utralight PRO, 31 ¾" with glue in 100 gr points hit high to the left with the nock looking down no matter how high I set NP.
Really cannot understand what is going on.
Thanks
Martin
Right or Left hand archer? Have you tried raising the BH a tiny bit? I get flight that looks like this in reverse (I am RH). The arrow fish tails as it leaves the riser. Less so with a perfect release.
You can't understand what's going on, I can't tell what your talking about. You don't try to tune with two sets of arrow. Try the old OR the new. Sorry.
Spine is a left and right issue. Don't worry about which way the nock is point for nocking point. If the bare shaft is too high compared to feathered - lower the point from one inch.
You can be torqueing the string. That can be helped by two nocking points. I should probably take that 'can' out of the first sentence and put 'are'. Most of us torque the string. That means at the split second of release the nocking point is not only moving forward, it also is moving down.
Thank for all helping.
Ok, it is too stiff.
According to Stu Miller spine Calculator my “old” arrows are 59# and the “new” ones 74#.
What I cannot understand is why the nock is always down like if I had a low NP. I tried from 0 (horizontal) to 1” and always get the nock down.
Thanks

Thank you very much!
I didnt know that stiff arrows also shows "false low NP".
The problem we have here is that it is very difficult and costly to import arrows.
Besides shipping, we have to pay 50% tax.
I get them at good price.
A docen of Gold Tips cost if you buy them from someone about $233.-
If you import then they cost $240.-
Thats why, when you get them a good price you try to make them fit. LOL
Wow, that's like twice what they cost here.
What happens if say you got lucky and somebody just happened to put a dozen of exactly what you want on the trading blanket at an opportune time?

Hi,
At Custom office they check it on the web.
To prove you get them at low price (print of the page, etc.), if not they check the price on Internet shops.
Hi Grant,
You receive a gift, you buy or whatever, you have to pay the tax.
Some years ago a friend from Spain send me a book he translated (one of Pondoro´s books) and I payed the tax. fortunatelly the tax for books now is zero.
In any case, if you have 400 GTs at good price we can make a deal.
Thanks
Martin
But I would like to say that actually I have found that when tuning gets way out on an extreme, things go pear shaped real fast. It gets to where you can't trust anything. Extreme stiff or weak, and the arrow exits the bow SOOOO badly that you can't even count on the what the arrow may be telling you about the nock point.
if you're Left Handed, left impacts will mean weak... just because another model of arrow of similar name is tuned doesn't mean that the new ones will. i have even seen arrows go out of tune that are the same make and model but bought a few years apart as subtle differences in the manufacturing process can make a difference.
