Reasons why my arrow kicks out to the left or right?
I just recently bought a new Hoyt Turbohawk bow with 28″ draw length and im shooting Gold Tip 5575 arrows with 100 grain tips. It took the guys a while to get it sighted in and they said they had to max out the draw back weight to get it sighted in and that the tail of my arrow would look like its higher but it will still be on target. Any suggestions on what I could do to fix it because 70 lbs is a pain to constantly pull back. I also use a Whisker Biscuit but they moved it all over the place and nothing changed.
If you bought the bow from an archery shop and the bow techs sighted it in, there is something wrong. 90% of arrow kick is related to fletching contact with your arrow rest. Since you use a whisker biscuit that would not be the reason for the left-right kick.The other reason is usually an incorrect center shot. But since they moved it in and out, that is eliminated as a cause also. That leaves only 2 other possibilities. One, if you are a finger shooter, your form may be bad from having to pull back 70 lbs each time you shoot it when you are not built up to that draw weight yet.But the second and most likely reason is the problem is in your bow. That is why the bow techs had to max it out to even get it close to performing well. Plus they had to use a high nocking point on your arrow to get it close.There are some bows that come from the manufacturer with a defect such as cam lean. These bows can never be tuned accurately and will never be an acceptable target or hunting bow.What you need to do is take the bow to another pro shop and explain the problem to them. Have them check it out for any defects and have them try to tune it if no defects are found.If something is found, get the first shop to take it back and get you another bow.I am only assuming the first shop had qualified bow technicians working for them. In some areas they hire off the street and they know less then you do about bow tuning. But the bottom line is this- if the second shop cannot correct or find the problem you need to get rid of the bow while it is new and get another one. Because the bow is worthless as a hunting bow if it cannot be tuned. It is also worthless as a target bow because it will never be accurate enough for you.Get something done now, the quicker the better.Hoyt will stand behind their product, but the bow shop will have to contact them and get it okayed to take the bow back. Good luck!

Easton carbon x-10 shot?
wondered whether this particular arrow could be shot with a compound bow. Looking for some shooting My target arrows Hoyt Pro Elite # 58 by pulling a draw length of 29. Can anyone help choose a good shot arrow.wantto both within and outside.
You should verify the backbone range they offer. I am surprised they are still sale ….. X10, which came around 1997 or if I do not remember wrong. They were introduced by the Olympic team and the thorns are for recurve weight lighter. According to the cam you have in your Hoyt, could be one of the X10 which is rigid enough for you, but I doubt it. Please note more points will weaken the destination column …. Archers typically use lighter equipment and arrows are lighter spine because of this. They have a maximum tensile strength is quite low, so that the range of the spine that is offered without axis can be anywhere enough rigid for its weight consists of the hunt. I suppose you want a weight range in column # 80 (I think * * will be a gap of about 0325 " if I remember correctly anywhere near). It depends on your camera, the length of the tip of the arrow weight, etc. etc., of course. If you not all tests bareshaft then see if a store can help you stay at the stage of the range of the column and then look for a similar weight to the spine or X10 other tree you choose. I am a bit out of date now seems ….. arrows that all the carbon is not spoiled for choice based on aluminum today. Trad and I started making my own wood wooden arrows …. I slots and everything else. I like the simplicity and longbows selfbows much better …. and get me to see arrow flies instead of being hung on pins and peeps into view. : O) If you do not find your answer here, in S / A, see forums and national specificities http://www.bowsite.com each state. There are a lot of archers on the existence and many target archers former fighter and the hunters are actually still exist and participate (Or they did 5 years ago, anyway). You can get all the answers, input and experience can manage on this site …. a wealth of information and good people for the most part. Hope this helps some. : O)
