Default Ticking sound on my Instinct

I was shooting my bow last night and i noticed a ticking sound coming from my bottom cam. When you come to full draw it makes on single tick. I looked it over and the only thingi found was a little bit of the severing on the cable was worn. Could this be it? Any ideas on what else it could be? Thanks for any help.

sounds like you are hitting the draw stop a little hard.

That could be, Josh. I don't have any sound like that on my Instinct.

Are all the little screws on the cams tight?

I had the same thing on my Hoyt a few years ago. I just took a small strip of moleskin and attached it to the draw stop on the bottom cam, where it contacts the cable. Problem solved!

If that's it, it's an easy fix.

it has a miniature bomb in it and it will blow your cams up when it detects you are drawing on a deer or your favorite game of choice. The reason i know this is because its not a bowtech bow and if you want the ticking to stop you will have to go get you a bowtech...
or try the mole skin and suffer with the added weight.
