Default RE: newbie overall diagnostic question

Thanks for all of the help!

I am right on with my drawlength. What do you mean by having my cams timed?

I replace my string every year and have my bow tuned at the bow shop. I have a set of old muzzy broad heads that I use for practice and I only use my new ones for hunting.

Since I am a right handed shooter, I use left helical twist. I am shooting 4" vanes. What difference will feathers make? I currently use vanes because of the rain here in Oregon...I heard that the rain and feathers don' t mix...am I wrong? The rain is only sometimes a factor during the early deer and elk season but it is a big factor for the late season and for my December lotter elk hunt.

I noticed today that when my arrow is knocked and it on the rest, it was tilting up (versus being completely purpendicular to my bow string). I adjusted my arrow rest down so the arrow was purpendicular and it started shooting way low. Should I just increase the tension on my rest or should I move my knock holder on the string and adjust my rest back up?

Also, should I be posting this stuff on the " technical" forum instead of here?

thanks again for all of your help.
