When you shoot like me…you can’t tell any difference in your arrows. 😅

[@jeffreyfred4817]

I’m right there with ya 😂😂

[@mikewalter6183]

I’m with You!👍

[@maynardcarmer3148]

I put a number on all my arrows, along with the weight of each, on the fletching.

[@NPC-fl3gq]

Same, and then after that I re-fletch anything that isn't flying as good as it should, then after nock tuning and making everything as good as I can I re-number them, but on the shaft, so I can still identify them easily for 3D after fletchings get shot off.

[@jedhuf7548]

I used to do weight but I’ve learned how to assemble them so they are all within 1-2 grains.

[@maynardcarmer3148]

@jedhuf7548 I put the weight on my arrows because I also weigh all my broadheads, then combine them so that the total weights are within a grain or less of each other.

[@madhuntsadventures]

Mine are all numbered as well. It truly does help you know each arrow. Good tips.

[@jimfunk9992]

Great job nate 🏹

[@Illustrator76]

I definitely say: "To each their own" on this one. I just haven't run into a situation where I felt that numbering my arrows would have mattered that much to me. This is especially true now that I'm shooting Altra Arrows, where their tolerances on component weight are so tight, and there is no need to "spine align" the arrows. When I first started archery, I was deep into the tinkering aspect of it, but I'm the complete opposite right now. Actually shooting my bow and getting better is all that really matters to me.

[@kalvinhutchins3704]

I've wondered about Altra arrows and why you have to select a spine when ordering if they have "no spine" technology? Not sure how that works.

[@Illustrator76]

@@kalvinhutchins3704They have a "no spine" technology, meaning no "dynamic spine", so you don't have to worry about nock tuning to get each arrow to fly correctly. Just fletch them and go.

[@kalvinhutchins3704]

@@Illustrator76 right...that part I get. But when I go to the website to order arrows, it gives an option to select spine. I just don't get why we have to select a spine on a no spine technology. Sorry not meaning to be a pain.

[@michaelcolthart4006]

@@kalvinhutchins3704selecting spine in that context is the general stiffness of the arrow. “No spine technology” means there is no side of the arrow that is stiffer or weaker than any other side. Arrows manufactured by wrapping carbon sheets into a cylinder will have a stiff side because the never of layers at any given point isn’t equal with the rest of the arrow (roll a piece of paper into a cylinder and you’ll see what I mean.). Altra and Easton use a technique that weaves the carbon into a cylinder so the amount of carbon fiber is equal on all sides alleviating the need to find the stiff or weak side.

[@kalvinhutchins3704]

@@michaelcolthart4006 thank you. That explained it for me. Apologies for being ignorant.

[@Thejohnmullen]

All of my arrows are #1

[@MrChiumiento]

Try building your arrows using Firenock arrows, components, & equipment to build your arrows including their tools. Fletching jig and especially their PAPS machine. You won’t have to name or number your arrows. They will all fly the same. In turn saving you money because you will never have bad arrows. I don’t work for or have any affiliation with Firenock. But I use their stuff only for this reason. I will bet money on it.

[@Ashepnasty]

I just number them, then pick my top 3 and remember those numbers.

[@bryanmoorefield8890]

I’ve numbers mine for years and I only shoot 3 at a time. After each arrow shot I mentally evaluate my execution of the shot 95% of the time when I walk up to the target I can tell which arrow hit the spot I was aiming at more than 3 arrows and they kind of blend in.

[@paulmcclure7794]

I always number them, just hard when not sure if my 6 is a 9 upside down 😂

[@Schubox62]

Been numbering my arrows for over 30 years. As a cheesehead, I use my favorite Packer players. Fun fact: I lost an Easton ACC with a Leroy Butler #36 in North Dakota in 1998 shooting at a coyote from a tree stand. I was bummed because he killed a nice 8-point whitetail the day before... BTW, #36 is credited with performing the first Lambeau Leap #GoPackGo

[@christianlohmann8577]

Yeah, I number my arrows. My pro shop actually print them plus my name. But it frustrate me if I brake/lost one and the sequence is out of order … oh, my mind

[@1999mike]

In your opinion what is the best rangefinder for the common bow hunter?

[@averagejackarchery]

I've used a Halo for years. Got it for like $80. Has served me well

[@williamfrost4055]

I would think the reason the best arrow isn't the easiest to tune is because it's still an outlier from the average.
