So. it would seem that finding the COG is fairly straight forward but there is little agreement about where it should be if you want to move it around.
Are there some objectives to aim for? I was told years ago we use stabilisers to tighten groups. I can follow that line but it's not totally helpful.
I'm thinking in simple terms like:
should it be bottom heavy rather than top heavy?
should it be front heavy or back heavy?
when the bow is in its power stroke, should there be little or no tendency to rotate in any direction or is it better if rotation tends to be long rod turns down or whatever?
What do I tell others when they ask me? Saying, "opinions differ,"seems rather unsatisfactory.
