[QUOTE="WildWillie, post: 561116, member: 29658"] Jon - Thanks for the great write up. Do you have a recommended distance to paper tune from ? I had gotten the indication from one of your earlier articles that you were tuning from 10 to 15 yds. The problem that seemed to be re-occuring was I would get a good paper tune after a few adjustments only to a follow up shot (Same distance) shoot with a large tear. Something was changing in the front end and I could not figure out what it was. Also how are you moving the Biscuit rest Horizontally ? There is no adjustment other than to cant it one way or the other and that only seems to give you about 1/8" total movement. After aligning the cams and such I seem to have a pretty good shot. Yesterday I finally got 3 of my broadheads to group about 3" at 60yds. I ran out of good arrows and just fletched 4 more this morning to see if I can get a few more that will group the same. I had fletched about 8 arrows with the Aerovane II's, but I have a feeling their hard leading edge that was nicking the cables on each shot prematuraly wears out the cables. I had to replace the original cables because the serving had come undone in the middle of the cables. WildWillie [/QUOTE]
