I was shooting my recurve this afternoon. I noticed a wobble and my arrows were hitting a little high. I really bared down on my release and follow through but it didn't get any better. I was just about to have one of my melt downs where I shoot 50 or 60 arrows in a constant down hill side , where I end up so tired I can't draw my bow and pretty much ready to put a gun in my mouth. I got a grip on myself and pulled out a knife and stripped 3 brand new feathers off one of the shafts. It flew nock high 4 times in a role. I slid my nock down about 1/32 and they looked alot better just a little weak. I twisted up my brace height 1/8 and SHAZAM it flew perfect. switching back to arrows with feathers I was very happy to be slapping arrows together again. I only changed, what I changed a tiny bit but it improved my flight considerably

That is very frustrating.  I was having fits with some new arrows a while back.  Tried everything.  Was about to throw everything in the trash, bow and all when I realized I had the wrong arrows and they were WAY too stiff for my bow.  Grabbed a few old ones and the rest was history.  I can definately be my own worst enemy!

It is that attention to detail that puts you in the category of a true bowhunter, and not just someone who hunts with a bow.

One more step towards a quick, clean kill.
Perfect arrow flight is just good medicine.

It would be a good idea to take those measurements and write them down.  That makes it real easy to check and to put your bow back to those specs when things go south.

  Feels good when the problem surfaces and you quit worrying why nothings working. Maybe I need to send some of my bows and arrows to you. Glad to hear ya got it worked out. Now go wack a pig! CK
