Default important info for '04 patriot owners

just got off the phone with denny from bowtech who just finished speaking with the designer for me to get an answer. the issue was the difference in string and cable lengths of '04 and '05 single cam patriots.

my understanding was nothing had changed about the bow technically. the string issue caused some confusion between me and someone i made a set for.

i made them to '05 specs. string: 87 15/16's cable 35 3/8's
last years specs: '04 specs. string 87 1/4" cable 35 7/32's

the lengths have been changed in '05 to counteract some of the limb deflection caused by the string and cable going through the cable slide.

soooo.... when its time for a new set order them to '05 specs. your bow will work a little better. john

Thanks for the heads up, looks like I need to do some untwisting!
