Could be a lot of things, including torque being applied with the way you are bringing it to full draw. I didn't do any of this stuff with my Constitution, just made sure the arrow**** the same spot from various parts of the draw cycle (creep tune), and that my DL was perfect.When the rubber meets the road a good creep tune and decent arrow flight is all that really matters when it comes to timing.With what I did to set mine up, it shoots good enough for me to hit 16 X's on a 30 target course from the open stakes yesterday.......[8D].
Also as a side note.................it scares the crap outta meseeing you guys use a hook in the rafters to check this stuff. One mistake and that bow would take your head off on the way back up, and god only knows what would happen if that hook came out. Seriously, build yourself a draw board. It's only gonna cost you like $50 and it way safer than what your doing and much more practical as well.
The cable stop edges are actually hitting my cables though, which is a concerning since the cable should obviously be hitting in the center of the channel. It could quite possibly be due to the torque from me drawing it from the hook. I'm going to get around to building a draw board, but a 3/4"x4" j-hook set into a floor joist probably isn't going to go anywhere...the bow could take your head of if you're not careful though when you let it up
As to creep tuning, I'm not sure exactly how well I will be able to creep tune this thing. It about wants to rip my arm out of its socket whenever I catch myself creeping. There's very little valley on these things, so it may be hard to shoot from the front of it, but I'll give it a try. Thanks for the advice.
