Default RE: Cam Timing

You don't say what kind of cam that bow has, and I'm not familiar with it. Call the manufacturer and see what they say about it. Once you have everything exactly correct, with the bow tuned to shoot a broadhead perfectly, take lots of measurements for future reference.

You should precisely measure brace height, ATA, nock distance from axel, peep distance from axel (if you use one) and tiller. Measure to within 1/32" or closer if you can. Write these down, and then all you have to do is re-measure at any time in the future to know if your bow is shooting exacting as it was supposed to. This will also be very good data for when you change a string down the road.

Other measurements I take, are exact distance of center shot and rest height. For my bows, I've made a block of wood that I use as a spacer to get these last two measurements perfect within seconds. It takes me awhile to sand down a piece of wood to fit this perfectly, but the time spent saves me a lot of tuning time if I have to change rests for some reason. It also assures me that nothing has moved. The peace of mind you get from doing this, is well worth the time spent.
