Bareshaft tuning

I have been trying to find proper arrows for my Falco Storm bow plus wanted to do candle trickshot in daylight. So I decided to combine these two things by shooting candle trick with bareshaft arrows. Many people have said that candle trick is easy with bow and arrow because the feathers put off the flame. Well, it is not that easy and it's even harder with bareshaft arrows.

I thought bare shaft tuning was about comparing the point of impact of a shaft with an without fletching. If you are just shooting to hit a candle won't you simply allow for whatever flight you get from the bare shaft until you begin to hit?

@dmgm1970 With bareshaft you can see if the shaft is too weak or too stiff. I was trying to find the right lenght for those arrows. Cutting a little bit from the end of the shaft made it bit stiffer and I think the arrow flew more straight. So, no I don't accept whatever flight from bareshaft.

Good shooting. Just hitting the candle is a good shot. Candle is skinny :-)

@Woodenarrows Thank you. Candles are challenging sometimes but they are good practise too.

@firebelliedtoad Well, wax is good cover for wooden arrows. It prevents water soaking in to a wooden shaft and you can always prepare with foam extinguisher. 8)

@Trophybow1 Thank you my friend. I will keep on shooting and hopefully filming too. Hunting season takes some time away from trick shooting.
