This may be the most concise, purely informative video I've seen regarding this subject. Thank you for taking the time and effort it took to create and post this. This information is timeless.
I guess Im randomly asking but does any of you know a method to get back into an Instagram account? I stupidly forgot the password. I would love any assistance you can offer me
@Briggs Gibson Thanks for your reply. I found the site thru google and I'm waiting for the hacking stuff atm. I see it takes quite some time so I will reply here later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
Great video, thanks for taking the time in showing us far less experienced archers the basics with arrow tuning. This is the kind of info that sticks with a person for their lifetime.
really helpful video you have made here i didn't learn much i did not already know but for them of us out there needing a bit of help with spine selection ect this is the perfect help video
I am 14 Years old, and i buy my own Black widow 50 Lb bow, and it works perfect! Thanks for all and continue that good work with your great hunting bows!
Well dont worry about the bow looking, remember black widow bows are bows of prestige for hunters, i got a 1970 OnePiece model. Its worth around 500 Dollars actually for sure. Where do you live? And yes im swimer, i practice karate, lima lama and Tae kwon do. Im black belt in one of those
Finally a simple video that hit everything on the nose. If your new to traditional archery remember to not take so many opinions vs fact. This video is fact. The guys at black widow are awesome and they make a great bow. Practive Practice Practice and HAVE FUN. The other great video on you tube is by black swan archery. That's just as good as this. Check it out.
I've got my bareshafts cut down to the point of landing nock center past 20 yards, showing about an inch weak at 40. I'm sure feathers will stiffen & correct for those distances, but in my living room , no more than 7yd, I CANNOT for the life of me get the nock to drop down level. I have micro calibrated my nocking point so many times I don't have any hair left to pull out. Thing is, at 20yd, it's level. What do I make of this?
Short answer - no. Longer answer - it depends on what shoots the best for you. Playing with point weights is a way to fine tune after getting your shafts close as possible to perfect tuning. You might find that 125 grains works great, or maybe your set-up shoots a bit better with 100's or 145's. And -then- you switch to broadheads and maybe it changes again. There is no substitute for trying different points to see what works best for -your- set-up.
my arrows sometimes fish tail through the air. Could this be bad release? Next time im going to use a trigger release instead of tab and see if they fly straighter
If your using a tab with to much leather hanging over it WILL make your arrow fishtail. If you want to know for sure shoot with mechanical release and the results wont lie.
after 12 years of shooting compounds i want to try a traditional bow but i know much less about shooting traditionals. This video tells me a lot about what i need to know :) very well done video. Big Thanks.
So informative in a nice and direct manner. I need to watch the 25-minute version now. Thank you for posting this.

Fantastic content two years later, thank you Ken Beck!
Great video, thanks for taking the time in showing us far less experienced archers the basics with arrow tuning. This is the kind of info that sticks with a person for their lifetime.
This should have a couple thousand more views and as many more likes. Best video on the topic.
Thank you Mr Beck!!! I was able to tune my arrows near perfect with your simple explanation.keep up the great Vids!
What a fantastic video, very clear and explained very well, super easy to follow.

Ken is the Jack LaLanne of archery. I love it

the fact that you're 14 is irrelevant.
Im really strong, i can use it without any problem, anyway i only use it for big animals hunting. I shoot using a 45 pounds recurve
thats good! do you exercise back muscles too? anyways im just jealous because i don't have such a pretty bow and bowhunting is illegal where i live

@@DIA4000 Could YOU handle a 50 lb bow at 14?
Thank you for the explanation. very clear and concise.
Great show Thanks

good video
Excellent schooling video, thanks for the time you spend on instructing people to tune your bow set up properly.

If you are shooting 3 under you need to put a nocking point under the arrow as well and it will probably help.
Your arrow isn't out of paradox at 7 yards. No biggie.
is there a standard weighted tip that a person should try to use I am shooting a 42 pound longbow

I want that quiver
Hmmm... I finally followed Ann's advice and took Woodprix. It's great for beginners and has some advanced stuff too.
I like this guy.
Good fellow I met him and Brenda seamed to be concerned about you and your bow.
This is GOLD! Thank you.
