Flight Tuning Question

[sgkrsa]

Just one question on flight tuning I'm not sure on. . . .

Shooting at the horizontal line to determine arrow tracking up or down. . .my question is: About what distance should the arrow be naturally dropping ? I know my bow should be right on for the 5,10,15, and 20 yard increments. . .but when I hit 25,30 etc. . .how do I know it's not the arrow dropping naturally, vs tracking low? I shoot a Switchback XT at 68 lbs.

If you can keep it on the line out to 20yds then your fine. After that it should just be natural drop.

Rule of thumb is 250fps = 15 yrds / 300fps 25yrds.

I knew (before he died) a real pro that never tuned past 15 yards by starting at 5 yards first.

There is no need to crowd the mark of real drop.

If you can square the horizontal line between 5 and 15 you are going to be so close it will be insignificant until you are riding the 300 fps level.

Thanks guys. . .that clears that up.
