Arrows To Stiff

[portsmouth495L/B]

i bought these arrows when in fact they were a bit shorter than i normally shoot but i didn,t think it would make as much a difference as it has. the arrow on the bow is to the right of the string and goes to the left when shot. i have moved the button out quite a bit as the arrows were going way left.the arrows are the same spine and make as my previous arrows only shorter.

would i be right in thinking that if my arrows are to stiff i could up the weight of the piles to help.

if not then there will be some arrows for sale.

oh these are recurve arrows by the way.

Yep, heavier points may help. Have you tried a bareshaft tune?

THATS HOW IT USED TO BE WITH MY OTHER ARROWS BUT THEY WENT THAT FAR TO THE LEFT THEY MISSED THE TARGET

then you,ll need to up the weight of the piles or turn the weight of the bow up , also you can use less strands on your string , all does the same thing
maks the arrows more whippyer

Right handed,ok. You said you had screwed the button out quite a bit. That had me fooled. I thought you meant out so it was sticking out further into the sight window.
Sounds like they are too stiff or the button is too stiff/stuck.
Speeding up the bow is the best way. More poundage or a lighter string.(fewer strands and less serving and replace brass nock points, if you have them, with thread.
