Perhaps I misunderstood what you were getting at...?

I just meant more archers are shooting lighter arrows today than in years past. At least it seems that way. I was talking in general terms, not about you.

Yeppers, Len would be correct in that the first thing is to make sure the new set is at the correct specs. But I imagine you checked that first before putting them on.

I've actually had strings from one of the best string makers in the country defective out of the package. I spent a weekend trying to tune my personal bow with a new stringand finally resolved to putting the old string back on. The bow went immediately back to tune.

I grabbed another string from the same newbatch and it tuned immediately. I sent the first new string back to the manufacturer. They tore it down and couldn't find anything wrong with it. It was somehow bad, but definitely not visibly bad to the 'human eye.'

We've also had a 'set' of cables that were not exactly the same cause tuning problems. We've seen strings that were damaged during installation. We've seen 'unbalanced' strings cause problems.

And I'm sure we haven't seen it all.

Wash,
Aren't those tuning dots in the wrong place. I thought they were to be centered on the limb???? Not below.

The tuning dots are right where they should be for the '07 Allegiance. 4 to 6 dots outside limbs. 4 being prefered starting point.

I just got back from Chicago and wanted to look at my bow before commenting.

have you looked at your buss cables, to make sure they have close to the same amount of twist in them, sometimes this causes pressure to be more on one side of the cam than the other. Just a suggestion.

Ps These BowTech cam lean statements are really getting old. 99% of them are misinterpreted, optical illusions, or made with an 'agenda' in mind. If some of these posters want to see cam lean, I can show them hideous cam lean on other designs/models/manufacturers' products. For a cable guard design bow, the Binary Cam System exhibits cam lean that would be the in the least amount category when compared to just about anything else in production using a cable guard.

I agree Len, People hear these rumours and run with them without any personal experience with the issue.

I would agree with Len. Put the old string and cables on and see if your problem goes away. If it is fixed then get another set or reserve the one you have.

Since everyones shoot'n in the dark trying to help , I'lll take a wild guess , measure axil length on both sides and twist/untwist one side of the split acordingly .
Im assuming you measured the string and cabel set you recieved , if not , what Len says make sence , measure them .
