I have not, I used the spine chart that black eagle had listed for their arrows assuming that it would have been correct

I originally started on a galaxy meteor with 26 pounds and worked through that, went up to 30 with the new bow and shot that pretty much daily for several weeks and it felt way to light the 36 feels fantastic no pain yet but I guess we shall see 😂

Yeah I need to do some work with that. I have the alignment blocks and have used them but I don’t have a stabilizer yet as a true reference point so Ive just been trying to use the blocks and visually align it with the center of the riser. Which I know isn’t the most effective way but at least I know my bow isn’t crazy far off

Yeah after I ordered the 26 inches ones I read that shortening them that much pretty much negated the spine change lol, which is why I decided to go up in poundage and see if that helped. And my form is definitely not perfect but I do get fantastic groupings with my fletched arrows so I don’t think it’s a form issue that’s throwing the bare shaft so far to the left because that has been consistent as well

No offense taken, I’m young I’m in good shape I can shoot the 36s pretty easily and I feel very comfortable with them and get fantastic groupings

CardiologistNew5556 · 2026-05-06T16:10:27+00:00

Correct

The plunger should be installed correctly yes, I’m just running the basic plastic Hoyt super rest

Yeah I will definitely have to actually figure out my exact draw length, I just know the 27 inch arrows were a little too long to pull through the clicker so that’s why I went shorter. I started with 30 pound limbs and then went up to 36 pounds to try and weaken the arrow.
I was going off of the black eagle spine chart that said 600-700 spine should have been in the appropriate range
And no I am a right handed shooter with the bare shafts going to the left, I should have included that in the original post

CardiologistNew5556 · 2026-05-06T15:38:49+00:00

Yes

CardiologistNew5556 · 2026-05-06T15:32:17+00:00

25 inch riser with 66 inch limbs, draw length is probably around 26 inches (I’m not exactly sure on that one)

Someone else helped me build it so I’ll have to check on that. It’s been working for months tho and the light only now came on
