I have a TT shakey hunter. Hopefully you can see in the pic but it is about 1/4 inch above the arrow shelf. should I tilt it to be flat with the arrow shelf. Also I can slide it back a little to make it more even. Pic is not very good sorry.

look like this

Good pics Javi...........I tend to worry more about where my arrow is going thru the berger hole than how it hits the shelf because I have a sims pad on there anyway. Javi can you expand on this.

Actually, I set my bows up so that the nock point is at the center of pull (balance) for the bow and move the rest to adjust arrow flight.

Years ago when we shot plungers we were tied to the Berger hole but with todays movable rests there is no reason to shoot a bow that isn't balanced in the center of pull...

The design of most modern compound bows will place the arrow very close to the center of the Berger hole when the nock is in the center of pull... so it all works out for the most part.. but if you find your bow dipping or wanting to rise at full draw you might have missed the balance...

My setup is pretty much like Javi's. The "ears" of the launcher are touching the shelf and the bottom of the groove in the launcher is even with the edge of the shelf.

nice pics javi I always thought you was a mathews man tho:noidea:

I thought that is the reason most people Tiller Tune. I do have one bow that for some reason wants to hold a hair low of the spot. I really have to pull up to get it in there.

tiller tuning as it is practiced today for compounds is not the same thing.... close but different in final effect.

Javi,

Thanks for the article brother. Good reading and dang good info.

Mike, where do you measure from on a Apex to find center of balance point. I'm having the sight drop slowly out of x when at full draw and wondering if I'm not centered.
