BT General Cams...

can one of you guys look at your cams on your general, and tell me if at rest - do they have a VERY slight lean? might me and optical illusion on mine, or maybe because the limbs are different between the right and left limbs.

thanks,

you really need a tool like the Spot Hogg laser to check something like that. Eyeballing can be tricky.

it is so slight, if measured it looks like a 1/128th or 1/64 inch.

That's the point, with the tool you are not guessing, you know for sure. If you are eyeballing it the best you can hope for is a guess.

ok, I will check, but is anyone elses General, experiancing the same lean at rest?

Nope, my commander and guardians do not have any lean at rest or full draw. I have the spott hog laser and its awesome for these things.

Have you tried to drop poundage? Do you have aftermarket cableslide?

The only way I know to correct is new limbs.

it is the General, and uses a cable roller/guide.

talked to Pat at bowtech, said it was due to the cable guide stress on the cables.

Oops, I am sorry, I have the guardian on my mind. If its the cable guide stress, they should fix it, I would imagine.
