nodog,

I agree with you to a point about getting proper service, something that has been paid for. The reason I suggest trying to adjust things is "how else we gonna learn"?

You seem to have been around a while. How did you learn to do thinggs on your bow? Me, I just tear them apart, throw the pieces on a pile, and then reassemble the thing. Learing to make adjustments and such has the advantage of gaining an understanding of what's happening and what a problem might be if things go awry. Afterall, if we just took the bow back to the shop every time something changes there's be no market for bow-squares, allen wrenches, and all the other gizmo's and tools.

By the way, the only 4" vane that I've seen less than 8 grains is the Duavane LP. Mine weigh in at just about 6.5 grains +/- .1 grains.

I get your meaning. There are pro-shops and there are "Pro" shops. How many have you ever been in where a Pro actually worked there? Know what I mean?
