Hi Thorvald, always willing to have a discussion with anyone
whatever method is chosen to set center shot, you have to accept that this is only the first stage.
This is the static center shot alignment NOT the alignment you will be shooting with (the dynamic alignment).
The dynamic alignment takes the static alignment and tunes it to your bow etc for normal shooting.
ideally what you want of course is that the windage does not change from shooting at 20 yds to 100yds.
Once we have a reasonable position to start with, we can then move onto the French Tune method to get the dynamic center shot.
The French Tune is as follows:-
start by shooting at 20 yds (or whatever you have available, I use 13 yds as that is all I can safely get in my back garden) and getting the arrows to impact in the center, I use a line drawn down the target face. At this (short) distance we adjust the sight left and right (windage) as required.
Then you go to the longest distance you can shoot on your field and adjust the arrow rest to get the arrows impacting in the center.
I should point out at this stage, you MUST be able to shoot a consistant group at your longest distance, otherwise you are chasing Unicorns.
Also I should point out you MUST have a micro tuneable arrow rest. (you are chasing twin horned unicorns otherwise).
Once you have your arrows in the center, then you go back to the short distance and adjust the sight windage to get the arrows in the center again. DO NOT adjust the arrow rest.
Repeat the above and you will find the two adjustments will meet where you do not need to alter your windage between distances.
You now have the true (dynamic) center shot, if you find your arrows off from center due to wind, ONLY adjust your windage.
I would mark your center shot windage point so you have a reference to set back to with no wind conditions.
I am not denegrating any method to find the static center shot but you must be aware of the limitations of that method.
Having tried all sorts of methods, I now use the arrow on the cam method (aligning the arrows by eye is easy and surprisingly accurate).
Being a Yorkshireman, we do not like spending money when not necessary, I object to spending £50 - £60 when it is not necessary and how often do you set up center shot, only when you have a new bow or arrow rest?
Interesting video you posted, I have non of that kit to start with.
By doing the alignment at full draw, that is the same as my dynamic tune method (french tune) but at a lot less £0.00 cost. (unless you do not have any parallel arrows of course!!!!!)
To each his own, good shooting everyone.
