I think it was on here that there was a discussion going on when I first got my MM, I hadn't really noticed any fletch contact on my bow but it was close, someone replied and their reasoning sounded good when referring to where the cables naturally crossed so I gave it a try, it really seemed to give me more fletching clearance. Haven't noticed any unusual wear and the bows shooting great. If I remember correctly I called Bowtech before I did it and they said it didn't matter where they crossed. I wonder if it matter's whether the bow is a VFT or not , obviously my 02 MM is not. Jeez if I'm putting some kind of unknown stress on my bow I probably should get a new one. You think that rationale will fly with the wife?
