Proving the Bend Test - Gold Tip Warriors

Putting the Bend Test up against a full dozen of Gold Tip Warrior arrows to see how many will shoot a clean bullet hole while paper tuning. The Bend Test to tune arrows is proving to be a much simpler, effective, and more efficient way of spine aligning arrows. Nock tuning is effective, but can be a long a tedious process. This method will get arrows flying well and grouping down range. I provide a quick demonstration and then take them to the paper to prove this theory. I still firmly believe this is better than Nock Tuning.

I found this to be a very interesting and well presented video. Thank you for sharing.

@mat_in_texas 22 дня назад

Glad you enjoyed it!

@bojank1976 2 месяца назад

Tired it, 5 out of 6 bare shaft arrows were spot on through paper, one nock had to be rotated maybe 20°. Thanks Matt 👍

Awesome!

I just did this test about 10 days ago with a dozen Gold Tip Hunter XT's 300 spine and had 12 bullet holes AMAZING 😜. After watching your 1st and 2nd videos on this arrow bend process this has changed the way I tune my arrows. Your results conform that as well. Great video, Brother 😉👊🇺🇸

@mat_in_texas 2 месяца назад

That’s awesome to hear!

@JerrBearTactical 2 месяца назад

One thing I wanted to mention that I didn't tell you. Using the same type of insert on both ends of the arrow I find extremely important and leads to better consistency in the overall bend test. That's the conclusion I came up with. I just wanted to pass that on😉@mat_in_texas

Used that hot melt for years with great results. Just clean out the carbon in the shaft. Plus I can heat it lightly and clock my broadhead to my liking. Cool video. I made an adapter for my Last Chance press for spine testing. 👍👍

I always use the Bohning blue,never had a problem. To take them out just put the points in a cup of boiling water for a minute or two,that's enough to take them out.

This is absolutely changing the way I am going to tune new arrows, as well as stripping the vanes and tuning my old arrows this way. Thank you! How do you like the Modsaw, and how long have you had it?

Mat great video. I enjoy your testing and tinkering. If you later change to the heavier brass inserts, I am wondering if these paper results would change significantly. Thanks. JT

@mat_in_texas 2 месяца назад

Thanks for stopping by! I’ve already applied this method to the heavier arrows for the MXR. When I swap this set of Warriors to the brass inserts, I’ll run all of them through the bend test again, but I’m not expecting to see any changes.

@@mat_in_texas can you do a bend test for recurve bows? As I also have an archery addiction😅

@mat_in_texas Месяц назад

@@elbacon158 I believe so, just index the weak side away from the raiser and they will probably fly great.

@Codymccool1 2 месяца назад

So, what do you mean when you are referring to nock up? So essentially you mark the opposite side of the slope of the bend. For example, it is marked on the side that doesn’t have the bent carbon towards. Is this because you are reflecting under pressure it bends and curves out, the non curved is the weak spot? Then you mentioned you want the Knox up? But also referred to wanting the bend down. So the indicator of the weak side is down? Or the curve is down. So, to simplify it, the slit needs to correspond with the line? Sorry I’m over thinking it. And just learning.

@mat_in_texas 2 месяца назад

All good friend. Asking questions is how we figure stuff out. I actually have another video that I go into depth on how to do this. This was more demonstration of the paper tuning. Go check it out. It should answer most of your questions.

@Cpt-Pugwash14 2 месяца назад

you can use your bow press to do the same thing.

@mat_in_texas 2 месяца назад

Yup, bow press works great!

@user-bf5cx8bu5v 2 месяца назад

I find your discovery very interesting!!! I'm wondering if you happen to have then mounted broad heads to see if they shoot like the field points, or, is there even more diddling around to get them to shoot the same?

@mat_in_texas 2 месяца назад

Getting them to tune through paper doesn’t mean broadheads will fly perfect. You’ll have to get outside and broadhead tune. This process makes broadhead tuning very easy. I’ve got a video about it on here too.

@royleerobinson5 2 месяца назад

So i just built this and tried this method. I think that there is too much slop in the drive head of the bar clamp. I had 3 trouble arrows out of 9 so 6 where bullet holes. These arrows have vanes on them as well. Im trying to come up with a way to tighten up that fitment of the pipe and the head that moved to squeezethe arrow.

@mat_in_texas 2 месяца назад

If you have a bow press, that works really well too

@Aldocello1 2 месяца назад

So question , do this test before or after cutting arrows to length ?

@mat_in_texas 2 месяца назад

Yes, you’ll want to have them cut to length and have the insert or point glued into the front

@Aldocello1 2 месяца назад

@@mat_in_texas I assumed but I figured I would check first, this is a fabulous process that saves a whole lot of time , and has a homeloader that knows 800/1000 rounds months we all know time is limited so and you buy the equipment and develop process to complete the task in math, obviously I will follow up make a paper but this seems to be in second process .

@Aldocello1 2 месяца назад

So my clamps got delivered today already had a 4 foot pipe, already tested it on six arrows that I had sitting around, yes as well noticed testing that laying it horizontally versus hanging it vertically there is a difference, more of a consistent flex vertically so once again glad I came across your videos this is definitely a timesaver, still will run through paper and not to but this is gonna save me so much time

@timgruver5932 2 месяца назад

There was a channel Samual White that used the cheapest Wallyworld arrows and just nocked tuned them. Shot amazing groups at 100 yards. But when a guy does this he’s running out of excuses, lol. 👍👍

@lacky903 2 месяца назад

I think it's more just wanting to see the complete build process and if anymore adjusting takes place. That's what I was wondering anyway. I'll check out the broadhead tune video it probably explains some of it.

@johndavis-ld1qz 2 месяца назад

This method can work but when adding fetching that goes out the window. Once Fletcher the paper tears change once again

@mat_in_texas 2 месяца назад

Challenge accepted….

@Aldocello1 2 месяца назад

Mr. John Davis explain how it goes out the window, your arrow is going to flex no matter whether it's fletched or not the strong side/weak side of your spine is its DNA if you will that does not change once Fletching is added , now flight path might change so paper tuning is definitely a must follow up but your spine is your spine, please correct me if I'm wrong I'm always willing to learn

@johndavis-ld1qz 2 месяца назад

@Aldocello1 yes your right with your response I should of re worded my statement better the tune changes from paper tuning bareshafts then paper tuning fletched shafts it's just easier to skip the step of bareshaft thru paper and just paper tune fletched arrows since that's how we all shoot arrows in the end anyways it's just a wasted step in my opinion

Spend more time shooting and less time fiddling with arrows and tunes. You'll see way better results. Paper tunes are just a starting point and mean nothing in terms of accuracy.

But fiddling is fun. You should try it sometime
