Default Tunning

I bought a limb driver Vapor trail and i'm trying to tune it but I'm new to tunning and need help! My tears are all going down( tears from fletching is under the tear line. What do i need to do? i read the easton tunning guide and it said to raise my nock point so i did but now all my tears are different. one bullet one the tears the same as before just not as bad and one the tears different everytime.

Look for fletching contact on the prongs of the rest or even possibly on the cord that attaches to the limb. Contact will cause you nightmares trying to tune. Get rid of the contact first then try to tune again.

I can't make i fall faster even if i wanted and the string isn't the way because it is behind the cable guard so it would hit the cable instead.

Which way is your cock vane pointed? I have always had best results having the cock vane pointed straight up on most dropaways. Other than fletching contact, the only thing I think would cause this problem is a form or torque issue but thats hard to tell without being there watching someone shoot.

Set the rest height so that the arrow is centered in the berger hole. Then adjust nock point accordingly to level or just above level. Centershot is set with the rest and I usually set it up to start by just eyeballing the string up with the center of the riser just inside of the limb pockets and through the rear stablizer hole and center the rest with the string and that is usually very close with most bows. Then use paper tune to adjust nockpoint and centershot to get "close" then walkback tune to fine tune centershot.
