I've never understood the purpose of bare shaft tuning. you are not going to shoot it bare, so why tune it that way.

For example, if you're testing your arrows from 10 yards +, they will correct. There's no correction and it's easier to see the error when using bare shaft tuning. The errors are more exaggerated. I hope we have once again reminded people that man is not free unless government is limited. There�s a clear cause and effect here that is as neat and predictable as a law of physics: as government expands, liberty contracts. � Ronald Reagan

Maybe I've just been lucky with that bow. I should get the prodigy next Tuesday but, hunters birthday is not until first of may.
