Default Help With Reflex Bow

I just bought a Reflex Timberwolf second hand pretty cheap. The draw weight feels really light. It is about 51lbs I cranked down the bolt on the front of the pocket as far as possible. Do I have to loosen the side bolts on this model?

I could not find an owners manual online. If it is as tight as it goes then I got sold a bow that is 40-50 lbs rather than the 50-60 as advertised. (ebay).

Any help would be appreciated. This is my first bow by the way.


Thanks

Jeff

Find someone who actually knows what they are doing?!?
Also, dont buy a bow on Ebay or from anyplace else and expect to not have to pay a shop to set-it-up for you. In the end you might as well buy it from the shop, because some shops will charge you 100$ or more to set up a bow bought out of shop.

take it to a shop and have them adjust it, set it up for you and tune it for you. thats the only way youll get anywhere with it. how the heck did you come up with 51lbs by drawing it back with no scale?? there should be a sticker under the bottom limb pocket that states what limbs and everything are on it. i dont think they make 40-50..could be wrong.

also you have to tighten BOTH limb pocket bolts..and do so equally to have it set right. it sounded like you just cranked on one. my advise is take it to a shop....it probably needs alot of adjusting to fit YOU and tuned FOR YOU.....
