This tear indicates a stiff arrow reac-
tion for right-handed archers using
finger release. Left-handed archers
will have an opposite pattern. It gen-
erally indicates that the arrow rest
position is too far to the right or that there is possible
vane contact on the inside launcher rest.
This tear indicates a weak arrow
reaction or clearance problem for
right-handed finger release archers.
Left-handed finger release archers
will have the opposite pattern. For
right-handed compound archers using mechanical
releases, the left tear usually indicates the arrow rest is
too far to the left, a weak arrow reaction and/or clear-
ance problem.
TUNING WITH BROADHEADS
Most archers discover that they must make slight tun-
ing adjustments when switching from practice points
to broadheads (even at the same weight). Broadheads
create a dramatic aerodynamic change in arrow flight.
For this reason, slight adjustments may need to be
made in nocking point height, rest position or bow
weight to achieve desired broadhead flight. Always
test shoot broadheads before hunting. Even expand-
able broadheads may require different sight settings
than field points.
Hoyt USA recommends working closely with your
local Pro Shop when tuning your bow to ensure best
results.
