Nice to see a well presented video on tuning that considers the physics of the system you are dealing with. It is clear that you have a deep understanding of the factors that contribute to arrow flight and performance. Thanks for a sophisticated and educational presentation. And that bow is gorgeous!
Those string puffs can absolutely change the spine. I had monster sized ones on my bear bow and once they puffed out and I trimmed them down the spine went from being so stiff it smacked the riser to being perfect. Funny how little things can make such a big difference.
Great video. I appreciate the honesty in the content and the shooting practices. I agree with your philosophy in respect to shooting distances and arrow weight.You are shooting really well. Amazingly quite bow. I too like to drop down on the knee sometimes on 3d shoots, but i usually do better when I drop to both knees. It gives you a much more solid base. Because our knee is rounded by nature we get a little roll without even realizing it and therefore throws us off a bit.
I’ve owed 5 Javaman bows… now, I’m not a wealthy man, by any means, but Gregg’s bows are just so incredible that I had no choice but to keep buying them… 😅. Most of my arrows end up in that 13-14 gpp weight as well. I have to have a 30.5” draw length, so I can still get a good bit of speed (not that it matters to me).
Great Video! I noticed you also own the Toelke Pika, and I was curious to have your opinion on which bow you prefer for hunting and 3D (Pika or Elkheart) and why?
Way to rip off Ron Laclair with that bow.. before ya comment back,.. do your homework with a reply.. I’m sure it shoots nice, it’s effectively a Laclair super shrew..
Um... who do you think built those Shrews for Ron? Thanks for your incredibly helpful insight and positive comments. Please remember to like, share and subscribe!
