Default help with changing cables

Hello,
I really need some help, here. Yesterday my friend and I replaced cables on my Reflex Timberwolf bow. Everything went fine but after trying to shoot I noticed that my bottom cam is hitting bus cable. I have no idea what to do. All cables I took are same as in tune chart for my bow. What should i do?

after full draw...sounds like your string may be to short? or your over drawing? if it happens just after full draw.

Did you measure the string to make sure it was the correct length before you put it on?

Bottom cam is over rotated at rest. It's easy to see without even blowing the pictures up. The cable to the lower cam is too short. If you like the draw length where it's at you need to remove some twists from that cable and add some to the cable going to the top cam. Looking at it I'd start with about 3 twists each. Try to use some hole or something on the cam and referrence it to the limb. Get them close to the same and then draw the bow. When you get it right both cams should stop at the same time. Right now they are out of sync.
