70+ Tips On Setting Up & Super Tuning Your Bow For Maximum Accuracy 🤯

[@RobertMccoleman]

This is probably the only archery and hunting guy on YT that gives advice and reviews that you can actually trust. He's self made, and an absolute solid hunter.

[@razorramon3256]

Instinctive addictive archery is a pretty good one if you haven't seen his stuff yet

[@lucasstigall6683]

You don’t see long, in depth, instructional videos like this. These little tips that don’t get told to the average archer can save someone’s entire season. This is awesome!

[@StevenReed-o4v]

Especially free👍

[@itzmemagick8397]

As a bowhunter and Target archer entering the pro ASA scene, i gotta say I thoroughly appreciated this video. You definitely touched on tips and tricks not many people share, if any. This is some truly great, in-depth content. Youre helping 1000's of archer be their best version of themselves. Keep it up Bro!

[@johnbelusko6347]

Bro not a single person doing these bow setup vids are remotely close to as in depth and detailed as what urs are. I get excited when i see u post setup and tuning vids. Id be damn willing to drive to Iowa from Oklahoma to ur shop or house or wherever u have ur bow settin up place at just to have u help me do the same thing to mine. Just got my first hybrid cam bow a couple wks ago and boy let me tell u for a wanna be bow tech/ i got a LOOOOONG ways to go. Thank u for showin ur tricks and secrets of setup.

[@jakejenni1]

Absolutely you should do a video on target panic. Thanks for sharing with such passion.

[@jedenfield2284]

People have their opinions but I feel like the Bowmar’s are great people. The content is amazing and extremely informative. This is in a whole different class than most archery content creators. And we’re not getting charged for it.

[@justinrodabaugh3746]

Awesome video. A whole bunch of people do bow build videos but don’t go into the depths that you just went into. The whole moving of the d loop to find the best aiming point is my favorite tip and something I will start doing after season.

[@BowmarBowhunting]

Glad it was helpful!

[@Small.fish.angler]

By far the best archery setup video online! Super in depth, no shortcuts, and great information! Thanks Josh

[@urbanarrows]

Thank you for taking the time to always help the average archer to be the best he/she can be with their archery setups... Your videos really do help and it's the little things that make the huge gains! Keep doing what you do!

[@tobpitbull]

This is the type of work I was taught at 9 years old and have followed for 44 years… finished product… raw shaft at 30ty yards with both shafts… same with recurves which are easier. Good video and good info.

[@chadmcwilliams9892]

This is the most in depth instructional video I've seen so far! Great info, especially for a noob like me.

[@bs4597]

longest video I have ever watched on one topic, but SOOOOO helpful! Thank you!!!!

[@Smathers12hrc]

Fisherman's warehouse is where I go to get all my archery needs!! Love it

[@russellsimmons9284]

Took me all day to get all the way through this video. Well worth it and I now know I need to get in to my local bow shop and have a few things adjusted. Wish I had the right tools to do it myself.

[@heelfan88]

One of the best tuning videos from start to finish I’ve seen. A lot of good info in there!

[@nuckolsDG]

Love this content and definitely would love to see more of your archery insight! For me, I am just as obsessed with perfecting my archery craft as I am sitting in a tree.

[@tyrumlance8026]

I just bought a new Mathew’s 80lb bow! It’s my first brand new bow! I’m so happy you made this video!!

[@josephporfido2433]

#23 spectra, the outer jacket of the d loop is made of UHMWPE, the same material used for hybrid ceramic bulletproof armor plates. That shit is indestructible

[@P-Money-123]

Hey Mr Bowmar! Just wanted to thank you for all that you have taught me. I just picked up archery in March of my freshman year last year and can’t stop shooting. Now I am working on learning all these tips from you. Thanks again for all your tips and tricks. Keep up the great work!

[@donlucas3462]

josh do a video on arrow tuneing, whats your best way, paper tuning,bareshaft tuning what do you prefer for tuning arrows to the bow.. would like to see a in depth video on that, thanks

[@kylewheeler2150]

I’m pretty sure he has a video on how he builds his arrows. Not as in depth as this video but still a really good one to watch.

[@Calebott01]

This is the most in-depth bow video I’ve ever seen on KZbin. Amazing job Josh. absolutely killing it!!!

[@fultz.c92]

Absolute hammer of a video Josh thank you for the best bow build video out here.

[@MicahCampbell-i2o]

PLEASE DO MORE BOW SETUP VIDEOS AND TIPS/TRICKS YOU HAVE LEARNED ALONG THE WAY! LEGIT ONE OF THE BEST VIDEOS IVE WATCHED ON BOW SETUPS AND IN DEPTH TUNING! GREAT CONTENT JOSH AND HUGE HELP FOR ME WHO IS JUST STARTING OUT TINKERING WITH MY OWN BOWS INSTEAD OF TRUSTING A BOW SHOP (HARD TO FIND A GOOD ONE IN MY AREA ANYMORE). WOULD LOVE TO SEE SOME VIDEOS ON ARCHERY FORM AND COMMON MISTAKES ARCHERS MAKE WHEN LONG RANGE SHOOTING.

[@AaronFlores-f6t]

Great video who knew a fork would be the next tool I toss in my bow case! Great video and appreciate all the insight from start to finish.

[@coltynwhite]

Out of all the videos I’ve watched on stuff like this….this one is exactly what I needed. This video will be my text book from now on. Thanks for the awesome video!!

[@DerrellD1988]

Been waiting a long time for you to do another bow build / setup video. This one did not disappoint. Thank you sir !

[@predrag7283]

Great video, my friend! You've shown us little secrets of great masters, all the tricks and tips you gathered over the years. Such an unselfish act by you! That's why this video is priceless! Please make an in-depth video for paper tuning. Also, consider a few tips for archers and hunters with a low budget on what tools are a must to be in the higher price range which aren't, etc.

[@dustinbaconflipper]

Saw the length of the video and went “I’m gonna have to save this one for another time”. Just sat through with my own bow and worked on the same adjustments, while walking through the video: Man, this is some good stuff. Your depth of knowledge is incredible and this video has already helped me so much as a beginner archer and hopefully one day; hunter.

[@762longrange]

Thanks Josh, barely into the video and learning so much. If I haven’t seen it yet, a video of all the tools and equipment needed would be awesome

[@muskymadness927]

Do the target panic video. This video is extremely helpful as I just bought a new bow that I plan to set up/ tune and whatnot myself and I am still fairly new to setting up bows, only have done 3-4

[@PennNative]

Thank you for taking the time to teach us! I enjoyed learning from you. You have a passion for it. I would be interested in seeing more video like this for sure. -Form video -Basic archery specific video on home workouts we can do for keeping shoulders healthy and increasing draw weight\ maintaining what we have. -Backyard shooting with question answers type video be cool. -Anchor position\ peep height for long range shooting.

[@jordang94]

very smart your hand is rarely in the same spot every time ! i didn't even think of that ! that's why your bowmar bow hunting !

[@nickentwistle5084]

Honestly, this may be the best tuning how to video on youtube I've watched to date.

[@nathanrawlins9426]

Absolutely love it!!! The more detailed the better!! Also love Mark from Fisherman’s. He’s helped me set up my Hoyt and showed me a couple of things you went over in this video. Great content!! Thanks so much!!

[@benjaminraber5764]

Absolutely would love a video on target panic. Yessir this vid good stuff

[@ryankeagy9866]

This is gonna take me weeks to watch, but I love it already. Thank you Josh! Tremendous

[@johnnewcomb5162]

That 23 is a great d-loop, it's all I use.

[@travismuhler]

I’ve been using for years based off his recommendation. My pro shops hate it, when I bring in my own loop materials.

[@zacharymitchell7774]

Please do the target panic video. This video just changed completely how I’ll set up my bows from now on. Plus I have target panic

[@C-23_]

This is the content im here for.

[@BowmarBowhunting]

I hope you enjoy it!

[@shane-3170]

Man I love this video! A ton of information that not many people take time to walk through. I’d love to have a day to pick your brain and just hang out. Thanks for the great advice man

[@fulldrawexplore8672]

Interesting that dloop bit! Man that’s a comprehensive video. Some Good points for sure!

Glad you liked it!

I knew you made it! Bowmar Rogan Haynes 💪🏾 I don’t watch NBA but you Josh are one of my top favorite athletes! I’ve been watching since that doe in the ghillie suit! 😂😂

[@loudogfotog]

THANK YOU! just bought a bow press and am setting up a work bench in my garage. my local sports shop stupidly shut down the archery dept. forcing my to learn which ultimately is going to be a good thing. i'll use this video for reference many times.

[@donlucas3462]

great video josh, you should make some more diy bow builds and arrow tune. again very good and helpful. keep showing more

[@MeleM1313]

Incredible amount of information here. Plan on doing my first build and this is exactly what I was looking for. Please do a target panic video. That is part of what has pushed me to do my own build.

[@Pollyeverything]

2 fingers like a BOSS!!! I like this D-loop first trick. Iv been running them high for years.

[@dakotareynolds2373]

Amazing video, love the free content you put out for your fans. This could literally be a seminar that I would pay to go to

[@MrChiumiento]

I would love a target panic video. I must say I learn a lot from your videos. That is why I am sitting here watching this whole video.

[@jonathanperillo1795]

I’ve been setting up my bows for a long time now and do pretty much all of these steps…one thing I wasn’t doing was checking how the bow holds BEFORE tying the nocking points. My bow went from holding well to holding phenomenal by moving my loop up maybe an eighth of an inch. That small difference made a huge improvement on holding steady, no BS. I will forever be testing the hold before I tune everything from now on.

[@baileynelson8693]

you are awesome. I learned so much in this video. I’m gonna save it for later. I watched the whole thing!!!! you’re probably one of my favorite KZbin channels. I’m subscribed and I love watching every video. Keep up the good work!!

[@overkillwithsammyjones9241]

MN an this video bis packed. Watched the whole thing . Probably best video on bow setup I ve seen. Loved it!!

[@GabeToberman]

What a Great Video! It's long but everyone needs to power through it, because Josh packed it with very good info.

[@carsonpete]

Very nice overall video, I wish all bow shops did these steps. I also bare shaft tune my rest to 20 yards and often have to move cam spacers like you mentioned. Great stuff keep it up!

[@dancom69]

Thanks a lot for that super long video!! I really apreciated it. That was awsome! Hope tonse the next extra long sequel of that super tuning video

[@brentbroughton7989]

Josh loved the video, really appreciate this form of video. Thank you for your time. I took notes the whole way, look forward to tinkering. And I would love more long format deep dives to what has helped you, bow tips, shooting, arrow build, stand, etc. keep up the great work

[@prestonweatherby314]

I appreciate the tip on torque tuning I’m a 30.5 inch draw since I moved the dove tail on my Boonie sight and move my rest all the way forward it’s been money 👍👍👍

My very first bow (PSE Mach 30 ds) is being delivered this morning. Can’t wait to dive into more of your videos to learn all I can about bows/hunting/archery. 🎯

[@austinchristian4400]

a video on target panic would be incredible. ive had it since i started archery and have just learned to deal wiht it. would love to know extra tips and training on it

[@aussiepaul5582]

Great video mate, loved it. Extremely helpful as I've only had youtube & other online info to learn from since starting in archery a year & a half back. I'm in a small out of the way country town in Australia, no archery shops or clubs anywhere near me so videos like this are very helpful. I recently got a new bow (Bear Persist) so will definitely watch again & go though each step to get the set up just right. Please make some more about anything you can think of that will help new archers. Thanks.

[@ernestroger3326]

Not boring at all ! Excellent tips , excellent instruction.Scorpion Venom on the front of the arrow helps for pulling arrows out of targets .

[@conservativelawncare5284]

I’ve never had a bow technician put 1/3rd this much effort into setting up my bow. Gotta buy my own gear i guess.

[@Solrac-n4t]

I did just that and never have to go into a shop again. The best thing I ever did

[@Ken_Hardee]

Most people want that amount of attention and time but they aren’t willing to pay for it.

Same here. Gonna start ordering tools after season lol

[@Solrac-n4t]

@@joeys8317 best thing to do in my area i have to drive 3 hours plus to get to a shop ... then I got half ass work and the more I researched the more I learned i was not getting quality work i would have glady paid for someone to take pride in my set up but no one will put that kinda of pride in your tools as you will ... anyone who wants to work on ur own set up check out bow Yoda... aka mfjj here on the tube

[@Solrac-n4t]

@@Ken_Hardee when you spend upper end of 3g on the bow and accessories at the shop it should be done right from the start fact is the the knowledge is jus not there in some shops and I've went to 4 shops before I got my own work shop set up ...

[@calebmiller3251]

I’ve been waiting a long time for your in-depth bow tune video , the best info out there 💥

[@johnnewcomb5162]

I set my bow up at 7 yards, fixed blade broadhead arrow a bare shaft and a fletched arrow. Last bow I set up that way with a string, I was shooting bare shafts at 70 yards. Take out all the wind ect. I used a piece of string with a bolt at the end of it , then I square and plum for the horizontal line. I always tune off the limb bolts off every bow I set up if it's possible. Great video!

[@BobCoyle]

Awesome video Josh , i may have to watch again , a lot for this old head to absorb 😊

[@slyfauxofficial]

This was an insanely thorough and awesome video Josh. Thanks so much mate. Greetings from Melbourne, Australia

[@Eddiem0nster1]

Best video I’ve watched about tuning in a long time. Thanks for taking the time to share!

[@patrickbrown3728]

Amazing video Josh! This is inspiring me to learn how to set up my own equipment. I’m realizing how many things my local archery shops don’t do.

[@michaelaroberto5359]

Josh man this is what I’m talking about great video man I was thinking of doing one myself because people don’t go in depth for every process and what adjustments to make even MFJJ doesn’t do videos this in depth great job man for real!!

[@juanrodriguez-mu7ko]

Thanks bro! I’m learning a lot. These videos are great for a newbie like me. Thanks a million. I love learning so thanks.🙏

Hey bowmar do you think u could do some more traditional bow hunting videos? I loved watching your older ones

[@africanbornadventures]

I found the same thing with the Hamskea epsilon launcher blades. I switched the epsilon standard launcher with a Hybrid launcher blade which is flatter. No more contact.

[@mattkane2178]

Only 15 min in, but this is the best bow build video ever - thanks!!!!!!!!!!

[@ariankozlansky6348]

This was incredible. So in depth. Thank you so much for all you do for the community. I do a similar process but moving the d loop up and down to make the bow aim better is an amazing piece of knowledge and something i will surely incorporate. Josh, do you ever move your bareshaft tune out to 40-50 yards? I have been doing that for a couple years but have recently moved away from it and started just shooting broadheads at 100. I find the bareshaft doesnt always fly like a fixed blade broadhead. Sometimes it does but other times I will have to make some pretty decent adjustments to get my broadheads just right at 100. Have you found this to be the case?

[@greatlakeshuntingandtracking]

I like your concept of getting the bare bow to aim the best, my have to o look at around with my d loop height

[@jwild5360]

I would suggest putting the peep in the string before your d loop height adjustment. If you notice how thin of a peep tuner it takes to move your timing a full 8th inch now we have to account for how much bigger that peep sight is and how that’s going to effect your draw length. That 1/8th change in draw length is absolutely going to change the way the bow aims.

[@mikerugar5440]

Need a video on the torque tune. This is the first time I have ever heard this before.
