Default RE: For Roscoe - Tiller

I've been playing with this for a couple of weeks now - with fairly encouraging results. But only with Hoyt bows - with thedual cams. I can't help but wonder if this whole tiller tuning thing will work the same for single cam (like the Mathews) bows. Anyone haveany experience here?
If you think it through you can see cams have little to do with it. It's has to do with evening out the strengt of the top and bottom limbs. Since forces are different on each the fix is with the bolts. I do think manufacturers understand this and have done things to rectify the imbalance. A lot of sweet shooters right out of the box these days says something.

There's a great deal of frustration in archery. Trying to figure out why arrows don't go where they're supposed to takes people down many roads. IMO it's often the arrow.

My Hoyt Protec needs the top limbs lightened up a bit. I'm sure the reflex bows need the same. They all will shoot very well regardless; Best with good arrows.

A bow is just like a kids sling shot, evening things out is best. Just a big boy toy.
