Default Bowtech cam concern

I am concerned about my cams. My cams are very close to limbs where they sit. I actually noticed yesterday where they both have hit the limb and made a small groove. It doesn't seem to be happening any more. I haven't noticed any accuracy or noise problems. I was just wondering how much clearance you guys have between your cams and your limbs. I can barely squeeze a folded piece of paper in between the cam and limbs.

see sig for bow details.

Default RE: Bowtech cam concern

The 2006 models don't have a lot of clearance between the cam and the inside of the limb.If your's were rubbing,TAKE the bow back to your dealer.It should have a noticable gap between them.There are NO bushings in the 2006 model's.I would take the bow back to your dealer and have them look at it.

Default RE: Bowtech cam concern

have gotten about 4 explanations on this. the fix is a new set of limbs. i put the smallest spacers i could find on that side of the cam when i got my new limbs. only explanation that made sense is the blade used to cut the limbs doesn't get changed frequently enough and the tolerances get sloppy.
