Short draw guys are going to cut off most of that runout as well. For long draw guys that might only cut off an inch or not cut off any I’d go.001 all day. Especially if they are shooting fixed broadheads.
Remember that your arrow tolerance is plus or minus the stated value. Total Indicated Runout (TIR) is another value involved. The outside diameter (OD) is just that, the OD. What are the TIR / Concentricity values? Does the ID run true to the OD? Install your inserts and support the arrow between centers and see what you have...it won't be +/- .001" for a 'precision' arrow, IMO. The Easton Aluminum arrow is the truest arrow, IMO.
I'm happy to pay up for my .001 Victory VAP TKO Elites. They make my ".0015" Sirius Orions look like the shit that they are. I bought 6 Orions to try out and 3 were extremely wobbly while the other three were still not even close to what I expected. 1 out of the 6 looked pretty straight. The Victory arrows, on the other hand, were straight beyond belief. All 12 had no discernable wobble whatsoever. It's because I'm no machine that I want the best; I want every possible advantage even if it's mostly psychological. Confidence is important in almost all pursuits.
I'm going to have to disagree I build arrows a lot and I can tell you for a fact .001 spins a lot better than .006 when you put a big fixed blade up front why would you want to start off with an arrow that wobbles regardless of how good you are field points may not matter as much in your back yard but when it comes to broadhead flight it does. If you don't have the money buy a half dozen .001 take the time to spine aline insert time ect put those up for hunting and buy the .003 / .006 to practice throughout the year with a lot cheaper that way
I build my arrows also and yes it is all about broadhead flight. I build my dad's arrows also and he does .003 and .006 arrows witch are deff cheeper but I am able to cut from both sides of his arrows so I can make them straight. Mine I use all of the arrow but 1" that I cut off. So I need the straightest arrow I can get for that perfect broadhead flight with a tuned bow.
I'm really glad I buy my arrows from an honest company I just purchased a dozen 300 spine .006 from Deer Crossing Archery in Lucasville ohio and I was going to get .003 but Daniel Adkins one of the owners told me it was unnecessary that he would rather spend the extra money on spine indexing and for $10 a dozen why not. If you're in the market for new arrows I would highly recommend looking up deer crossing archery
Broadhead accuracy is likely where straightness tolerances would have a greater influence on flight and grouping. A crooked arrow tipped with a field point can still fly pretty straight. Screw a broadhead onto a crooked arrow and betting on it hitting the mark would be a mistake. Try your shooting tests with a 3-blade Muzzy broadhead or the "wide" Iron Will broadheads and see how the groups differ between arrow straightness categories. That would be telling.
Not punching the release is way more important than straightness of the arrow. I am amazed at the hunting videos and expert shooters that shoot a punchamatic.
@@johneasterling1092 I have noticed that as well. Watched a video of a gentleman poo-pooing the "FOC craze" that somehow didn't fix his shooting. All the while, he is flinching at the shot.
I got me a set of your mmt's and the fletching hits my chin at draw I watched your video at the start of this video and I can see it hits your chin also. Take a look. I am going to have to re-flech them little too tight for me, but I have a beard like you.
@@chadsyl23 It's more about the likelihood of multiple natural bends existing in opposite directions. Variations in fiber and resin density (compactness), layup, and voids will be exaggerated by some bends and hidden by others. It's not terribly important. It does have an effect, but it's pretty small. Good shafts don't need to be perfectly straight. Bad construction exaggerates poor straightness.
I've bought 24 easton axis match grades and I dont think 21 of them would make it to .003 standard. F*cking garbage and im now in the process of switching arrow. Thinking victory or sirius archery
21 of them look like they've been hit into trees that's how bad they are. I dont even think they'd make .01 heck with the .00? Lol that's how bad they are
