Spine must match draw weight and length.

Practice StandardStandard

3–4 focused sessions per week beat sporadic marathon practice.

  • One Change at a Time

    Adjust only one tuning variable per session — multiple changes hide what worked.

  • Paper Tune First

    Paper tune at close range before adjusting rest and nocking point at distance.

  • Document Adjustments

    Log every tuning change and result — memory fails across sessions.

Safety Notes

  • Never point a drawn bow at a person.
  • Always check the range is clear before shooting and wait for the all-clear signal.
