Hey Hoyt shooters,
I bought a new Vtec monday after shooting a Q2 for 4 yrs.
My question is this:
How many of you are shooting the stock strings? My string has more rotation on the draw than anything I've ever seen. I figured I would put a custom string on, but I thought I would get some use out of the stock.
My string on my Q2 had a slight rotation counterclockwise, but it did the exact same everytime.
It looks like I have my trupeep in backwards it has so much clockwise rotation on the draw.
any suggestions. can I twist it anyway???

Yep, I always said it. Hoyt strings are garbage. Any Hoyt I ever shot, I ordered a set of strings immediately after buying the bow. Its a shame that a top company like Hoyt has to use strings like that. I like their bows and thats the only thing I can say bad about them.

btomlin Simple, untwist your string. The more twists the more rotation. Any string twisted to adjust draw length will twist. If you need more than 5 or 6 twists to adjust, you should make the adjustments for draw on the cam setting. I shoot a Protec with LX Pro limbs. That's 48" axle to axle with 3 counter clockwise twists. I'm a right hand fingers shooter and as I draw the sting the tab will roll against the twist. If I'm on the string with my tab consistently the peep will be perfect. If I grab or roll to much, the peep will be a touch off center. This gives me a reference to make sure my tab and draw is the same shot after shot. At rest to full draw my peep rotates 1/4 turn consistently.
