Bowtech Guardian Unknown Noise

kwilson16 · 06-14-2008, 08:10 PM

My 2007 Guardian is making a slight 'tick' sound just as I reach full draw. The sound seems to be coming from the top cam. I removed/re-inserted the cam axle and it is straight and well-lubricated. The string is well worn but waxed.

Any suggestions?

Anyone?

Check that your mod screws are tight...I heard they can loosen up, some guys lock tite the screws.

The mod screws are tight. The draw module is supposed to be 28.5. It says CP2.5 on it.

Dan,
It does seem like the noise occurs as the cable comes in contact with the draw stop screw head. How do I fix this?

Is the serving worn where the string hits the stop? I've seen where this happend and the string would jump the stop.

the string is probably rolling off the top cam.I have the same thing going on.there are some bushings available at your pro shop tha you can scew into the cam to stop this

The cable was very worn at the spot it made contact with the draw stop bolt. I added an extra layer of serving to the contacted cable area and the squeak is gone. I will have to get new cables eventaully.

I have noticed that there is a threaded hole on the draw stops. Does this bushing thread into that hole, and does it lay flat and even with the draw stop? Is this a well known piece/option that my dealer should know about?

You haven't screwed with the pivot point have you? Screws are not suppose to be tight.
