Band Tuning. How to measure my bands, tune my bands and shoot fastest.

[@DonTharp]

Great video boss.

[@mrm8900]

VERY HELPFUL! Thank you!

[@TheOverlyHackeled]

Excellent explanation and easy to follow and replicate. Find a draw length divided by four add enough to attach but a boom, but a Bing shoot see if you’re getting the results you want if not tune a little bit more.

We are so glad you found this helpful.

I got mine set to 400%. I can see why anchors are important, unlike my tube latex wrist rocket where it feels like end of draw with the pouch by my cheek these latex flat bands feel like I can keep going still.

Simple Shot rubber is great.

Thank you.

[@ChuckinSteel]

I love these vids

[@simpleshot]

Thank you!

[@akhillz]

good info and well presented. thanks

[@simpleshot]

Glad it was helpful!

Given: Duraband Gold, elongation ratio 4.5:1 Draw length: 28" 28"/4.5"= 6.22" 6.22" ABL + 1" for tie-ons = 7.22" YET, it doesn't stretch to 28", in fact, an ABL of 8.75" to 9" is necessary. Why doesn't the math work in this case? Thank you!

Hi, I shoot 7 1/2 inch bands cut at 1 inch 3/4 and 3/8 ammo at 30 inch draw and I want to start to shoot butterfly style , how long bands do I need .

[@simpleshot]

That would depend on what that draw length is for you.

[@robertkaufman6602]

What are the signs when bands might fail?

[@simpleshot]

Look for nicks, small tears, or other problems such as holes in the latex. 😉

[@guerillero_]

So i need to ~cut~ my bands to 6 inches

[@Sav-E.]

If you have two of the same bandsets, tuned to the same elongation factor, but one bandset is set up for a shorter draw length and the other for a longer draw length, the longer bandset/draw length will shoot a projectile faster, right?

[@simpleshot]

Yes, if both are trimmed for the same percentage for two different draw lengths, the longer draw length will get a faster velocity.

How to cut a band? Can I use just knife or scissors? ✂️

[@simpleshot]

A roller gutter is ideal and can be purchased online or in box stores such as Walmart in the craft section.

[@chriscraft1245]

Do you prefer tapered bands or no tapered?

[@simpleshot]

Tapered so it breaks near the pouch and snaps toward the frame and not your face.

[@michaelschaap1645]

Hmmm. I just got my first one today. I’m 55. People in my group told me about this. I watched you 3 times, but. Regrettably. I’m confused. Hmmm. Any suggestions?

[@simpleshot]

What part are you confused on? You can always come to our website and use the live chat feature.

[@islrubsca2330]

How is Nathan supposed to offer you suggestions, when you don't indicate at all what part of the video you are confused about? And what does your age have to do with anything? "

[@simpleshot]

It's OK. :)
