    Hello! Cool video! What kind of arrow rest is on the bow?

  • @garrysmith9385
    @garrysmith93852 ай бұрын

    One of the most relaxing yet interesting videos I've watched. Having only just started in recurve archery, where does one learn how to create their / others own bow strings and what equipment please?

    Hi Garry. Glad you enjoyed the video. String making can look complex but it's really not that difficult. Just requires a bit of patience and practice. I learned by making cheap Dacron strings for our club beginner bows where, so long as it was safe, it didn't matter too much if it didn't look perfect. It has the advantage of the materials being relatively cheap so you don't feel bad if you end up having to scrap a string. Jig:- Mine is an A&F jig. Built like a tank and reasonably priced too String material:- start with something like BCY B55 (Dacron) Serving:- Again, start with something cheap (but good) like BCY 3D Serving tool:- The Beiter one is awesome... but quite expensive the Cartel one is inexpensive and a good place to start (but you'll want to upgrade to the Beiter one if you get the bug! :-) ). Sounds like I should create a couple of videos specifically on string making... but in the meantime I can recommend this one. It's a bit old now (and I use a slightly different way of starting the laying up), but it's a good general overview. kzread.info/dash/bejne/qY533I-wd6XcgrA.html

    So, it appears to me that serving a bow string is very much like whipping a rope.

    Regards the "4mm of tiller therefore 4mm np height" whilst that's not a bad starting point, I'd be tying some much easier temporary nocking points, determining my np by shooting bare and fletched shafts together at 30m, then tying these at whatever height that test tells me. Tiller to suit my finger pressure/hook and whatever height of grip I might have and even draw length: these variables are going to determine where my np will be. Going to be different for everyone.

  • @PeacockArchery
    @PeacockArchery Жыл бұрын

    Hi... yes indeed, those factors will have a direct effect on optimum nock placement. One thing I would add, is I'd do bareshaft planing tests at a distance the archer can group which may be closer than 30m, and if they're a novice, then I'd probably just do a basic set-up (4mm of +ve tiller, 4mm nock point height etc.), check to make sure we don't have any clearance issues and let them get on with it for a while 🙂).

    This is the best video because it's the ONLY video out of 10 or so I've watched that even mentions the index / cock vane (which I find bonkers because it's so important!). Sadly, the one thing you don't mention, is which side (looking from the back) do you put the sticky tape on for fletching after the ink/paint has dried? Since you 'draw' on the 'right' (again looking from the back) do you then apply to the fletch to the left of the paint? I've re-done a single arrow 3 times to try and figure out the rotation, but each time I feel like my fletches are wildly out of alignment with the nock.

    Great vid, (seeing as Cartel provide no instructions!) 🤬 Question: with the adjustable plate on the back, could you alter the angle slightly to provide a helical effect on the fletching? Or would you need the twisted clamp to achieve that?

  • @planet0philip
    @planet0philip2 жыл бұрын

    Hi Danny. Glad you like the video (I've got some more in the pipeline including how to set up a pressure button). The clamping plate can be set at an angle as you suggest, but sadly that'll just give you an offset. Good news is that Cartel do sell a helical clamp (Right Wing or Left Wing) and it's not crazy expensive... I don't recommend any particular shop, but if you're in the UK, I've spotted that Merlin have them in stock (www.merlinarchery.co.uk/cartel-midas-mx-clamp.html).

    Hi Stephen, glad you enjoyed it. The putty I use (session saver) goes a long way so a single stick is plenty to make four grips. Pleased that you liked the sound quality, it's a very simple 3.5mm jack external mic, but it's a powered one with a good aftermarket windshield so even in windy conditions the sound is generally good). www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B01M4J5WCM/ref=cm_sw_em_r_mt_dp_U_3NPhFb9MN48GZ Have fun making your custom grip and let me know if you'd like to see me make any other archery 'how to' videos.
