Paper tune picture
Hello,
I hope I was able to upload this photo correctly. I'm in the process of paper tuning my bow this is a shot of arrow with a field point. The hole is about an 1 1/2" wide. It looks to be me like it might be tearing to the right. Let me know what you think.

Question time:
What bow are you shooting?
What is the poundage set at?
What type of rest do you use?
What arrows are you shooting, how long are they and with what grain tip?
Have you shot at any closer ranges... say 4, 6 or 8 feet?
Have you noticed any damage or odd marks on your Blazers?
It looks to me that it is tearing right as well....and that could be caused by lots of different things.

Definitely nock right. Have you downloaded the Easton Tuning Guide? You'll find it here. http://www.eastonarchery.com/downloads.asp

If you stand about 5 feet away you will probably be able to see what is really happening. At your distance the arrow is almost correcting itself. You need to stand closer so that you can see what it is doing before it corrects itself.

This has become my response to all paper tune questions.
Yes,the Easton tuning chart is very helpfull but there is much more to paper tuning than just getting a good tear.
A good tear on an improperly setup bowwill not yield good results in the field.
