Default RE: Peep Problems

ORIGINAL: N2D

I just got one of my bows (Not Bowtech) back from having some warranty work. The top roller and bearings were replaced. It came back with the same string it had on it which is fine, nothing changed. I have been trying to install my Meta Peep in the same location. It worked fine before. Now it is on such an steep angle that I cannot see through it. It is as though the apex is more acute. I measured the A to A and brace heighth andthey areon specs. The only thing that may be different is the max draw weight.It's max is 70# but when new went up to 73#. Not uncommon right? Now it goes up to 77#.I have not checked the max out in a couple years since I shoot it at 60#. Anyone know what could be preventing the peep from being as it was?


Thanks

I'd make sure the scale is accurate first. Not saying that IS the problem... but that is quite a varience. I don't know when the last time you changed your string and cables was, but quite often your max draw will go DOWN with time... I've never known it to go up. Unless whomever was working on your bow monkeyed with the cables and string... I don't exactly have an answer for you.

I will say that with 70# limbs.... 73#s is fine... but 77#... ehhh.... probably not. Either way.... I'd take some twists out of the cables and make the peak closer to 70 than 80. Recheck your specs after that and make sure your cam/cams are still timed ok.

Is it the angle that is giving you problems? Are you sure that the peep is in the string right? Are you looking at the top of it or the side of it? Make sure it is still round too... meta's have a tendancy to crush... which is why I don't use them.
