Default bowtech patriot luck or what?????

i have a 03 patriot and was having problem getting a good paper tune so I e-mailed pat at bowtech and asked about setting the tiller and rest position.he said use a piece of string axle to axle then measure from the limb pockets,well what I did first was turned both limbs in all the way then backed them off equal turns and checked it with the string axle to axle and it was right on the money.then he said set your rest to 13/16 from the inside of the riser to the center of the shaft,so I did that,then checked my timing mark and it was good.i took a bare shaft 2413 at 29in and a 90gr point and shoot it through paper,perfect hole! went back to about 10 feet again perfect hole,ok cool!!!! so I took a fletched arrow got it sighted in at 20yds,arrow flew great.so I thought ok now heres the test i tooka 90gr 4 blade muzzy and shot that,i put it right next to the field point.what luck i guess.now i think i will do some 30 and 40yd shots tommorrow.

Glad to hear you were able to iron out the wrinkles. I too have an 03' Pat and I will say that once they are dialed in they are one sweet shooter.

I also shoot an 03 Patriot and right now see no reason to plunk down hundreds of dollars for the small improvement I would gain from a newer one. Great bows !
