thanks for the video but you didn't get into the details of actually tuning the plunger......when is it time to tighten or loosen the spring? Should we have a different plunger assembly for our different sets of arrows? when is it time to use the metal plunger button? who makes the best plunger assembly and why is it the best?...........................Thanks : )

The end of the video is really good. Very instructive.

That was excellent, a really clear and easy to follow demonstration. Thank you.

That is really helpful Mackenzie - thank you so much. I've been shooting one of these for years and had no idea! :-)

thanks for the video

Thank you for the video, helps a lot. New to archery, trying to setup the plunger correctly. Bookmarking. 11:41 high and right = low nock, weak plunger

I have found that those little see-through plastic bottles (with the locking caps) that my meds come in from the pharmacy make perfect storage containers for little, bitty screws and allen wrenches that, when dropped, are gone forever. I place a "post-it" slip of paper inside the bottle to label the contents of the bottle.

Thanks a lot....!!!

Great Video MacKenzie.. super for beginners.. Beiter products are the best. Can I ask what is the watch you are wearing in this video?

I’m missing something. If my fletched arrows are (mostly) hitting center yellow, I’m happy. But what if my fletched arrows tend to hit a bit left or right? Do I use a different spring?

I would check the spine of your arrows, but since you said they only deviate sometimes, I would chalk that up to being a human

If your fletched are not hitting center then turn your sight..you should adjust your plunger while shooting a blank shaft

Are the tips really different materials? I know for sure that they have different lengths (the black one is 2mm longer than the white one) and think the color is a form or length coding. The Beiter plunger with the long barrel uses dark green or light green tips, again the difference in length between those two is 2mm.

Alex K. Yes. Usually the black tip is used for carbon arrows, and the white is used for aluminums. They’re different material such that the tips don’t wear the arrows down in a bad manner, if I do recall correctly.

​@@cameronsenay882 I looked into the datasheet of the plunger that is provided by Beiter on their website and it states for the material of the plunger pins: "The material used for the Plunger Pin offers excellent glide- and wear-behaviour by using aluminum-, aluminum-carbon- or carbon-arrows." I couldn't find recommendations for use of particular pin colors with a given shaft material. So I still believe the only difference between the different pin colors is their length and of course the color added to the material.

Because of the confusion this video caused for me I contacted Beiter. The different colored Pins only differ in length, not material used. Guess the manufacturer knows best.

Man, I guess I'd like a Beiter plunger one day, but $120 was a lot for a plunger. I got the Shibuya DX for $40 and hopefully I can get by OK counting threads or turns for a while, even for lower level competition. It adds up fast piece by piece.

the Shibuya is good enough, as it is reliable.

Wow! She is not holding anyone's hand here. If this is what you have, this is what you are going to get. .. ...I like how she addresses the variables that can arise because of what different Archers have a preference for. This is the second time I am hearing about the preference of many professionals for a "weak arrow". Noted it first with Sjef Vanderberg.. .. .I think that's his name.. ... the Dutchman.

Cost this ?

Nice vid but you did not say anything about how to adjust the plunger and what effect it has on arrow flight.

@fahlvfaust677

Weaker spine- increase the spring tension Stiffer spine- decrease the spring tension, but you should make bare shaft tuning and adjusting centre shot for optimum arrow flight..arrows grouping well.. the spring tension but guided by the strength the poundage of your bow, either lower poundage or higher poundage...

I’m new so this was complicated for me. Great video though.

Just broke my ball bearing 😭

You din't explain why we need a plunger at all.

yeaaaah, theres no way ill be buying something if ill be too nervous to even talk to the girl at the checkout.

I gave this a thumbs down. You never even explained all the terminology you use, let alone what the plunger is for anyway. I see a tight group to the upper right. So why don't you just make a sight adjustment. Isn't that what the sight adjustments are for. I'm sure you are right in all this, you just haven't explained it very well. If you have to explain this to us, you have to treat us like we have never heard of a plunger before, and not talk the talk, like we are already pro archers.

you are exactly right. I am trying to learn but this lady is no teacher.

I still have no idea what a plunger is for. What a waste of time. Thanks a bunch.

First you should earn some minimal knowledge of a recurve bow, THEN come back for some more advanced learning. Gotta crawl before you can walk. But your attitude strongly suggests you have zero chance to ever be even an average recurve archer.
