Bare Shaft Tuning with Electric Tape "tips"

well it's fairy and uh another misunderstanding of aerodynamic flight with bear shaft and fletched arrows adding tape that weighs the same to the back of your arrow a bear shaft tuning is a complete misunderstanding of how Arrows fly with fletchings on them it's unfortunate but you have to meet the right people like Dr Ed some of those folks why don't you study this stuff and NASA the information's on the internet Lyft is the way they fly stay tuned [Music] [Music] [Applause] so this has been going around for a long time and it's a misunderstanding by the way there's a fan in the background because it's Texas and it's July and I'm in my palatial Studio here so that's why there's a fan sound is what it is and also what's up with you people do any of you people participate in this thing called Instagram you don't Instagram uh you might want to go there because I put out tips and great pictures and if y'all send me pictures this fall please do on Instagram at the ranch Ferry or on email Troy ranchfair.com and I'll be happy to put you up on my Instagram page to show your success because the goal of my channel is not for me to kill stuff and me that to celebrate me shooting stuff is for you to be more successful and increase your lethality in the field so why not show all the people who are whacking stuff shooting deer and they go 25 yards of fall over it's way better than chasing them around back to the topic at hand apparently the message boards in Rife with these bear shaft tuning people who really know what they're talking about I think there's about 50 percent of them that have no idea what they're talking about and this seems pretty logical and I think there's about 50 of them that have never shot a bear shaft in their life or they did it a couple times and it didn't work but they say and this is a general premise you need to put the same amount of mass and I've got tape on here right on the back of a bear shaft equivalent to the mass of your veins so theoretically you would get a scale put your veins on the scale let's say they come out to 16 grains you tear off electric tape say it's five inches long I don't know tape it on the back it's to simulate the weight of the veins on the back of the arrow that seems like a pretty good idea because you're kind of thinking about you're putting Mass on the front Mass on the back and make it equivalent some strategy the trouble with the tape thing is it completely disregards the aerodynamic function of veins on the back of an arrow veins on the back of the arrow are a lifting mechanism their mass is not as significant as the dramatic amount of corrective lift they are able to put onto an arrow that's even launching pretty poorly then comes off and stabilizes back here as it goes through the atmosphere you need to realize the atmosphere has mass at sea level that is 14.7 PSI pressing on us I've said this in other videos fish don't understand water pressure because they've never been out of water pressure so they swim up and down and water pressure messes with them or their air bladder changes they keep on trucking we've never lived in a vacuum so you don't even realize the atmosphere is pressing on you so if as mass you're shooting through the best simulation the best thing image I can come up with is fog because you can actually see fog hanging in the air the atmospheres actually has weight and you're pressing this long stick through fog super thin Jello whatever it takes for you to understand you're pushing against something that is physically being pulled down by gravity that is the right way to think about this so as the arrow launches if it if it takes off a little bit or there's a little bit of wind the back the veins are actually lifting the other direction to try to correct the front and make it stay on the shot line tape and the weight does not function the same way in fact there's no correlation between the two at all so it's just a basic misunderstanding of an aerodynamic flight and this information is available the model rocket world is full of it NASA airplanes all that stuff airplanes only go up and down you know what's great about arrows they are spinning they are bending and they're wobbling around all at the same time they're literally doing this I said this on podcast the other day I said only a couple if you think about yourself jump and rope and running sideways and you're shooting an arrow that direction you're running and jumping this way that is a more accurate mental representation of what an arrow is doing in the air than thinking it's just a stick that's flying there if the wind's blowing it's constantly going like this we all know the wind's never just steady right it's so it's flying there the wind's crosswind and it's constantly redirecting and the veins are constantly going like this trying to keep the shaft on The Shot line so the idea that this little bit of Mass on the back in any way simulates the way a Fletching works against the way the point is pushing into the atmosphere is just a misunderstanding of aerodynamics and you don't need to do it it has nothing to do with anything if this if you think this that is fine it might but I have shot a lot of underspined arrows with ridiculously heavy points bare shaft and then put fletchings on the same exact arrow with a ridiculous Point I've had a bare shaft here that's four inches and at seven or eight yards the Fletch tears not bad at all because it starts lifting and correcting the bear shaft that was there doing its job aerodynamically no aerodynamic effect at all it just adds Mass to the back a tremendous amount of aerodynamic correction when you add fans it's just really that simple so just avoid doing this at all costs it's just one extra step it's a lot of Labor and it won't get you anything because the two strategies are completely independent of each other from an aerodynamic standpoint all right well that's the ferry and uh this is this was kind of short buzzing fast hot everything's going great I hope y'all are having a great year getting ready I mean some of you guys getting wound up pronghorns are coming elk are coming gonna get killer I guess this is kind of a warning if it's if you saw this very quickly not tuned your arrows by now it's time to get on the stick go to the ranch Ferry Store buy some steaks that are awesome and get to Rolling don't forget to check out my videos on long range Aero performance ordering an arrow tuning and then a lot of my pig neck cropsy stuff I tend to shoot pigs with a bow and then take them apart and look inside and see what the arrow did and I don't know another person on YouTube is doing that but uh mostly because they get demonetized and I don't care about that the information is killer and I hope you uh have a great day thanks for watching like I said I'm on Instagram too follow me over there and hit me up with messages I'll be glad to help you out [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music]
