Tune Your Whitetail Bow Properly
Let the pro at the archery shop do the initial bow tuning for a new bow. When the bow is tuned correctly, the arrow will leave the string without yawing.
After your bow is professionally tuned, stand 6- to 8-feet away from a piece of paper, and shoot through the target using the appropriate safety precautions. The way the arrow cuts the paper as it flies will demonstrate how the arrow is coming out of the bow.
You’ll be able to see if the arrow is flying tail-high, tail-low, tail-left or tail-right by the tear in the paper. If you are having any of these problems, the archery pro can correct the arrow flight by synchronizing the wheels, which alter the height and the position of the arrow rest.
If the arrow is still not flying straight, then consider changing the arrow shaft you’re shooting to a different length or weight.
