Precision arrow building software for Windows
Built for archers who measure the details, Precision Arrow Builder helps you build better, more consistent arrow sets.
A short walkthrough of the real application, from component data to a finished arrow set. The demo has background music and on-screen captions, with no narration.
The demo shows how to:
Weigh your components and record each measured weight and quantity in inventory.
Choose the components for the build. Precision Arrow Builder finds combinations that keep weight and FOC closely matched across the set.
Review the proposed set, then assemble each arrow from the components listed for it.
Adjust the build and compare again. With Pro, keep finished sets on record for additions and replacements.
Small differences between components add up across a set. Precision Arrow Builder uses the details you measure to identify combinations intended to reduce weight and front-of-center (FOC) variation from arrow to arrow.
Measured inventory
Use the components you actually measured, not only nominal catalog values. Record the weight of individual points, shafts, nocks, and other parts, track how many of each you have, and choose which ones go into the build.
Results
Review the proposed set before committing components to assembly. The Results view shows average weight and FOC, the spread and variation across the set, and the exact components and glue weights assigned to every arrow.
These figures describe the arrows you plan to assemble. Shooting results still depend on bow setup, tuning, form, and conditions.
Arrow Inventory Pro
Keep a record of finished arrow sets and the details that went into them. Pro saves each set with its archer, purpose, label, and notes, and keeps individual arrow records with tags, measured weight and FOC, and build dates.
When you need to add or replace arrows, recall the set and build to match.
Component catalog
Build a personal catalog of the points, weights, shafts, and other parts you use, with the specifications Precision Arrow Builder needs for weight and FOC calculations.
Import shared, user-submitted component records into your personal catalog to reduce manual data entry, and submit additions or updates of your own.
Community catalog data is user-submitted. Precision Arrow Builder Software, LLC may perform a cursory review for obvious inaccuracies, but cannot independently verify or measure every component.
Free calculators and reference material for archers who measure the details, available without buying or installing anything.
Calculator
Estimate finished arrow mass from shaft GPI and installed component weights.
Calculator
Calculate front-of-center (FOC) percentage from arrow length and balance point.
Reference
Datum and sign conventions for component lengths and center-of-gravity locations.

Precision Arrow Builder is Windows desktop software. Plans are annual subscriptions, and renewal and billing details are shown at checkout. A successful purchase provides the license needed to activate the software.
Activation is required. Unless applicable purchase terms state otherwise, one license permits one activated installation at a time on one authorized device. The app may require periodic online license validation.
Normal working data is stored locally on your computer; Precision Arrow Builder does not provide general cloud sync or cloud storage for it. Community Catalog submissions happen only when you initiate them.
Applicable updates released for similarly situated subscribers are generally included during an active term. Canceling renewal ordinarily does not shorten a paid term. Purchase, refund, and billing terms remain subject to checkout and merchant-of-record terms and our Terms and Privacy Policy.
Precision Arrow Builder is Windows desktop software that helps archers turn measured component and build details into better, more consistent arrow sets.
Yes. Precision Arrow Builder is Windows desktop software.
Builder includes the core personal catalog, measured inventory, and Arrow Set Builder. Plus adds Community Catalog import, update, and submission tools. Pro adds Arrow Inventory for saved sets and individual arrows.
A successful purchase provides a license for one activated installation at a time on one authorized device unless the purchase terms say otherwise. Activation is required, and periodic online validation may be required.
Normal working data is stored locally on your computer. There is no general cloud-sync or cloud-storage service for normal working data.
Plus and Pro can import shared, user-submitted component records into their personal catalog and submit additions or updates. Community catalog data is user-submitted. Precision Arrow Builder Software, LLC may perform a cursory review for obvious inaccuracies, but cannot independently verify or measure every component.
Pro adds saved arrow set data, individual arrow records, tags, build details, notes, support for multiple purposes and archers, and build recall for easier additions and replacements.
Canceling future renewal ordinarily does not shorten your already-paid subscription term. The checkout, merchant-of-record terms, and website Terms govern the details.
Precision Arrow Builder helps archers make better use of measured details, but it does not guarantee shooting results. Final performance depends on bow setup, tuning, component quality, shooting form, and conditions.
Precision Arrow Builder was built by an archer who wanted a better way to build consistent arrow sets. It is developed and published by Precision Arrow Builder Software, LLC.
