Whisker Biscuit Break In?
About a month ago, I got a new bow - Reflex Growler. Put on the small WB, which is what i run on my other hunting bows. The new WB fit the Axis 400 shafts fairly snug. Could not get this bow to paper tune. Had a slight low tear at all rest settings and nock positions. So I tuned it for the least amount of low tear, and hoped for the best. Groups were very good. But fixed broadheads hit about 2.5" lower than field points at 20 yards. OK - I'll just adjust the sights a little before going afield.
Today, about 300 arrows later, I noticed there is finally a little daylight showing above the top 1/3 of the arrow shaft when in the WB. For some reason, I decided to see how fixed broadheads were grouping now that the bristles appear broken in a little. To my amazement, the bow now shoots field points and montecs/muzzys to the same spot! Must have been getting a little bump out of the tight newWB just as the arrow was leaving the rest.

You should have a finger nail of light showing from roughly the 9 to 3 o-clock position. there is a chart that shows you what Iam saying,Ive been shooting the WB from the day my shop had it in and wount look back.
