The first problem for bb is if an archer is good and consistent enough to tell if it is a tune issue or if it is just part of the inaccuracies of bb.
Nodes not being in the right places creates issues with the arrow jumping to the side at release one way or the other. But once again, how do we tell for most bb shooters?
It gets interesting talking about the rear node also- How brace height is basically the timing for the disconnect of the nock. If this is wrong then the rear of the arrow jumps as well.
This is a big problem for people seeking really fast setups shooting with fingers. The arrow just travels too fast to complete the cycle it needs to clear the bow properly and keep nodes where they need to be.
I believe this is leading to a lot of false tunes. Probably doesn’t matter for most except the highest level shooters but it sure wouldn’t hurt if everyone understood what’s going on.
There’s some really good slo-mo videos on YouTube that show what’s going on. Might be easier to understand to watch videos of highly tuned oly recurve set-ups. Everything is timed to perfectly clear the bow and keep nodes pointing to the target.
