Default cam moves??

I talked toGMATT about this and he said he would have it checked. My bottom cam moves a little bit like 1/8 - 1/4 of an inch. It doesn't seem to bother the shooting from what I can tell, but I don't think it is supposed to do it. It usually does it after it has sat for a while and I feel itwhen Im standing and rest the cam on my leg, I feel itmove. Is there some kind of tension after it sits?? Is it normal? I don't think it is..

Sounds like you have some bushings that need replaced.....

Perhaps one cracked and it is missing for that kind of slop?

Default RE: cam moves??

Im not sure what is actually moving, I lust went upstairs and checked it, I don't think it's moving a 1/4 in. I think it is just tension from the string, both cams will actually do it, If I pull gently on the cam it moves just a bit, I think it is just me being paranoid, sometimes I get that way when Im bored. After it does what it does the first time it doesn't do anymore, until the next time I go to get the bow out. I only noticed it the first time whenI rested the bottom cam on my leg before I shot, I felt it push up a little, but it maybe nothing...
