Couple tips on diy arrow cutting: Aluminum shafts: Easy! Use a pipe cutter. They're around 10-15 bucks at hardware store. Carbon shafts: Slightly trickier. You can also use a pipe cutter for these in a pinch but it's really not ideal. Better way is to take a Dremel and build a jig out of plywood to square the arrow with the cutting disc. There are tutorials for this online. It's just a matter of a 90 degree joint to hold your arrow and a second piece to hold the Dremel secure and square to the arrow holding piece.

Hi, you might want to have a look at this video kzread.info/dash/bejne/npp-kpmbqqermJc.html (starting at 15:30)

When I got into archery about 7 years ago, I didn’t have any teacher and the local shops just had compounds. I found my draw length 24” and they made me 25” youth arrows for a youth Samick recurve. So without knowing all that I know now, when I got a new recurve I ordered GT traditional 600 and had them cut 26” with 125 points. Yeah, far too stiff for my new bow, it pulls 30# at my draw. So I use GT lightning youth arrows lol because they work for 25-35#s. Eventually, I’ll tune or tweak to get the correct spine/length for when I do 3D.

Hi Nusensei! I’ve trained in Kyudo for a little over two years and the draw and arrow lengths are both much longer than what I’ve seen in most western forms of archery. Right now I’m looking at horse archery as a sort of bridge between kyudo and what’s traditionally taught in the west since yumi’s are expensive and rare where I live. Would the long draw length of kyudo translate well with a horse bow? And would I have to find a long arrow to compensate?

thanks for this video!!!

Thanks! 🙏

I imagine it makes sense for a beginner who might struggle with the draw weight at the start to have longer arrows, since with not much time they will be able to pull the string farther back and if that happens they risk injury with a shorter arrow that was catered to their weaker former draw length.

Hey Nu, thanks for the quality of your pieces, really enjoy your channel! I was curious why no switching tip weights? Seems easier than changing shaft lengths? I'm just getting into tuning, wondering if there are pros and cons? Thanks!

@NUSensei

7 жыл бұрын

Changing point weight is one way to change dynamic spine to get the right tune. A restricting factor is how much weight you want at the front of the arrow (which affects the "Front of Centre", or FOC, in turn affecting the arrow's flight properties). For example, an arrow with a light point might not group as well as heavier points. The main thing to remember with shaft length is that if you are shooting freestyle with a clicker, shaft length has very little leeway, as you have to be within the length needed to get through the clicker (unless you use a sight-mounted clicker). A good tune will likely involve getting the shaft at the right length for comfortable use, and then changing the point weight to fine-tune it.

Nobody mention this in safety videos but is really important....

A bench grinder cuts carbon arrows like butter. Grind off a 1/4", roll the end square on the side of the grinding wheel, test the arrow flight, and repeat until you find the perfect length.

I like my arrows 2-2,5 inch longer than my actual draw length. So I can cut down the tip and insert in case the front part of the shaft cracks, put a new one on and reuse the arrow. Saved me quite some money already and it seems easier to aim if the shaft sticks out a bit in front of the bow.

Thanks for the response, appreciate it! Is there a preferred ratio for total weight vs FOC, or would you know a reliable data source or tables that can help me zero in without a bunch of trial and error? Thanks, and thanks again for sharing all your insights on the you tube, you're a great ambassador for the sport.

You can probably find charts and recommendations on forums. However, the problem with this material is that they usually only give you a starting point. Archery is so personalised that it's impossible to prescribe what you should have. You can get rough figures to get your bow and arrows to tune, but fundamentally it's going to be trial and error (and often some $$$ to waste).

I've got a 31inch draw and have been using 31inch arrows, I have an arrow rest though and it gives more wiggle room, compared to the rest the bow gives, so safety isn't an issue. My mate also has a 31 inch draw and is doing complete bare bow, I'm gonna have to let him know this. We are new and just brought what we could with the funds we had, didn't even think about the dangers of having an arrow length not fitting our draw length. The man is about about to become a physiotherapist, surely wouldn't look good if he's own hands don't work lol.

At 6'5 and 31"+ draw length, would my option to use an arrow rest (opposed to the shelf) offset the awkwardness of the push/pull style (around 83% of my "full" draw potential) for my 45lb ~ 28" SSage...ive had great sucess w/ various combos of arrows * ranging between 3o"-32"_6o~15o grain tips_4oo~5oo spine_FFlight~D5o, etc * I pull 54lbs at 31" on my bow and im WEARING MY STRINGS OUT at the loop tips.

I tend to prefer 26 inch arrows to my 28 ones. I am short so I have 24 inch draw

Is there a relationship between draw length and arrow length? I ask because when you order arrows they come in different spine weights and lengths.

Yes, a lathe is perfect except for the measurement. A devoted arrow saw, usually a diamond or carborundum cutting wheel, at the end of a long groove where the arrow sits, means an easy placed stopper with an accurate measurement that can repeat arrow length and be adjusted simply. but if you have a lathe there is a good chance you have the equipment and skill to build an arrow saw for next to nothing. Possibly even an adaptor for your angle grinder, or bench grinder would do the trick.

Great video. Unrelated question... I have started taking archery lessons and the coach is having me hold the riser in a weird way. Basically my thumb points toward the target, but only my pointer finger comes around the riser. The rest of the fingers are inside on the same side of the riser as my bow arm. Have you ever heard of this grip before? Seemed strange to me as I've never seen it mentioned. My shooting has improved over the lessons so it doesn't seem to be bad.

It's the grip I use - if you are using a sling you essentially don't grip the riser at all and just sit the riser against the fleshy part of your hand below the thumb. I can't seem to get used to using a sling, so the idea of this grip is to hold the bow as lightly as possible so as not to impart torque to the riser through an uneven, tense grip

Never been charged for arrow extra for cutting if when buying them here in oz in the 20 years of archery.

it's official boyz, length does matter

Indians from amazon forest use some very long and heavy arrows, almost atlatl dart size, a foot longer than the draw length. Their arrows have head of stone, bone or hardwood and are thinner at the nock side side than at the point, either being made of cane or wood. Their bows rarely reach 60lbs, averaging between 30 to 50lbs. They draw using the pinch draw method or some variation of. Normally they shoot instinctive, releasing right at the end of the draw, because that way the bow shoot a bit faster, considering how heavy the arrow is. This is so because the forest is dense, and most shots are at quite close distances, probably at most 20 yards or so. The exception is when shooting birds or mammals high up in the trees or over a river, then they use lighter arrows. Their heavy arrows are able to kill large animals as alligators, jaguars, tapirs, etc.

hi there new archer here..... i was looking for a bow then found one and it turns out your displaying the same one in the video here... so i was wondering.. im gonna be a back yard shooter and the website did not say the length of arrow i needed for this bow. what do you recommend? Adventure 2.0

@xvaldez3284

6 жыл бұрын

specified draw lengths are more of a recommendation than a requirement since overdrawing the bow to the point of breaking is humanly impossible and nothing bad happens if you don't manage to draw it all the way to the specified draw. Really the length depends on your own draw length which is found by finding the length of your arm span from finger tip to finger tip and dividing that value by 2.5. you have to be careful when selecting you spine for your arrows though. look up the gold tip spine chart and it should give you a list of recommended values for arrow length with whatever poundage bow and grain arrow tips your specific bow should be using. it's important to match your spine to your bow since it affects the archer paradox and will determine if your arrows fly straight or will come in at an angle. too stiff and it will want to glance off your bow and fly off target too flexible and it will bend like crazy in mid flight which will reduce its aerodynamics, speed and penetration. I think it'll be easier to understand if you watch the archers paradox video from smarter every day to fully understand what I'm talking about

@mikegrossberg8624

@@xvaldez3284 The best way I'VE found to determine draw length is to take an uncut shaft with nothing on it but a nock. Put the shaft on your bowstring, draw it to whatever you're going to use as your anchor point(I put my thumb into the corner of my jaw), and have someone mark the point where the shaft crosses the side of the bow AWAY from you(I can never remember whether this is the "back" or the "belly"). Then you can figure out how much extra shaft will suit your needs. The archery industry standard for arrow length is 28"; most mass-produced bows are tillered for draw WEIGHT at that length(remember that increasing or decreasing arrow length will either add or subtract a couple of pounds per inch, i.e. if you have a bow that draws 30 lbs at 28", and you use arrows that are only 26" long, the draw weight will DROP by about 5 - 10 lbs. Similarly, a 30" draw length will UP the weight of the bow by about the same amount). BTW, I used the formula you gave, and came out with an answer of 28.8 inches length. For ME, at least, that's wrong; MY draw length, with the anchor point I use, is 30 inches. I suspect that your formula is based on everyone using the SAME stance, anchor point, etc. Unfortunately, one size does NOT fit ALL. Instead of trying to figure the necessary length out by math, one should do it by the method I described, actual measurement, which takes into account where you intend to hold your arrows

If I have arrows that are approximately three inches longer it shouldn't really affect my shot process right?

@sot8343

How far forward of center is the balance point. The further forward, the less effort the vanes have to work. The less the vanes have to work the more efficient the arrow flies. Imagine if the weighted tip was attached to the nock end. The vanes probably couldn't keep the arrow straight and it would probably cartwheel because the balance point was to far back.

Shorter arrows are lighter so faster with flatter trajectory... so you need a higher spine (softer) to compensate for the shorter length...?

You'll have to forgive me NuSensei - I admire your work, and I'm a self-taught novice, but I'm going to chance my arm and say that you're flat wrong about length affecting spine. If I understand spine correctly, it is a measure of arrow rigidity achieved by placing an arrow between two supports spaced at precisely 28 inches, suspending from the midpoint of the arrow a weight of exactly half a pound, and then gauging precisely the maximum extent that the arrow is deformed from perfectly straight. This means that shortening an arrow has no effect whatsoever on its spine. What it actually means is that - for any given spine - the longer is the arrow, the more there is of it to flex when shot from a bow. That ain't exactly the same thing: but it is the amount of flex (deviation from perfectly straight) along the arrow as a whole that affects the accuracy of your shot/shots. Less arrow, less deviation. Simples.

You could think 'guitar' (or 'harp' or 'zither', perhaps?*) and still get the idea. To play different notes on the same string, a violinist or guitarist moves their fingers up and down the neck of the instrument**, applying pressure against the frets, effectively changing the length of the part of the string that can vibrate. The stiffness of the string is unchanged by this - but the frequency (pitch) and amplitude (loudness) of the note it plays are both changed as a result: shorter strings vibrate faster but quieter than longer ones. The same is true when you shorten an arrow of a given stiffness: it will still flex (vibrate) in flight, but reducing the length of the shaft will change the frequency and amplitude of the flexing, and this in turn iwll affect the way that it flies downrange. Tell that to your students, and when they get it (but not before!) bring them into the jargon of 'static spine' and 'dynamic spine' 😊👍 * In harps and zithers the fingers are moved between strings of different lengths - but the result is the same, for any 2 strings of the same stiffness but different length. **Want to see this in close up - watch the guy accompanying Candy Dulfer in this spine-tingling performance: kzread.info/dash/bejne/iIuNlrOCnrLRfdY.html
