In this episode of BowCast (www.bowcast.com) Aneal is joined by Matt Hogue - Archery Lead at Sportsman's Warehouse in Littleton, CO. Matt and Aneal go through the process of paper tuning and correction to get your arrow flying straight out of your bow.
question...if you have a high or low tear...instead of adjusting your nock point, could you just move your rest up or down?? I'm new to all this so any help is appreciated!!

The shorter the brace heigth/distance the harder a bow is to paper tune. It may never paper tune. Distance to paper tune 10'-15' is good.

How far do you stand from the paper, because when I'm like 4 feet away i get a perfect hole, but if i step back to 8 feet I get a nock low, nock left tear? Thanks!

I am shooting the PSE Omen. Short brace height. How does this affect paper tuning? I am getting a consistant 7 O'clock low left hit. My rest is center shot and nock is 1/4" high. Using the HD Ultra rest. Sprayed it with foot poeder and there are NO marks on the rest anywhere. Still getting the low left tear. Using the stiffest spine possible. Tried different point weights. Shooting great groups just not good flight at 5' while paper tuning. Any suggestions? Thanks! Rich

@jumpthenoob Yes you tune with all rests. It does not matter what type.

do you do this with a whisker biscuit?

Often I find a high tear is corrected by moving the nock point UP. I theorize this is caused by the rear of the arrow colliding with the rest and bouncing upwards. Fletch contact causes most poor tears and is hard to diagnose. Coating the arrow rest with a marking medium such as lipstick will reveal way more than coating the fletching. Draw the bow THEN place the arrow on the rest. When all is tuned correctly, the only marks will be where the front of the arrow sat on the rest before release.

If you can get bulletts and then you sometimes get left OR right, its somply a release issue. Bow sounds tuned.
