RE: Dilemma...
 

Seems to me if a manufacturer offers a bow with a 70# limb that is available in a 26" draw it should draw 70#. If I was you I would find a bow that is to my liking with the speciied draw length and call the manufacture and ask them. If the dealer proceeds to tell you different tell him he is full of #@%^ and find another dealer that will look after your needs.

Jumping back in again. You said originally that your bow did not shoot the proper poundage with 60 # limbs. What was the poundage then?Did you get close to 10# more when he changed the limbs or just a few ? Because a few could be gained by twisting the cables. I would call Mathews and ask them ASAP.You have a great bow , I would be more skeptical of the limb replacement from the dealer ! Let us know how things turn out !

RE: Dilemma...
 

If you have had two sets of limbs on the bow and it has been under the proper poundage both times, then the problem has to be in the cables/string.

Both the string and cable need to be very close to factory specs for a single cam to perform like it should.

RE: Dilemma...
 

The 60# limb set-up pulled around 55#'s if memory serves' me,the current 70# limb set-up pulls in the lower 60's, so I did get a increase in pounds. I don't doubt the limbs were changed, due to the fact they looked new, and the sticker didn't look tampered with.
So the general consensus is this set up should pull more poundage correct? So do I a). shorten/twist-up the string, b). lengthen/un-twist the harness/buss-cable, c). both of these, or d). I'm way out in left field <img src=icon_smile_blush.gif border=0 align=middle>.
Hey ya'll, thanks for the input! This board is G-R-E-A-T!!!!

RE: Dilemma...
 

I would recommend getting the factory specs for string and cable length and measuring the ones on your bow. A string/cable that's close to specs, but not quite right, can be twisted/untwisted to get the correct length. Once the string and cable are the correct length, your cam SHOULD be in the proper position. The longer flat side of the cam should be almost parallel to the string on most bows.

If either one is stretched too far out of whack, it will need to be replaced as it is not recommended to put too much twist in them.

I have a short draw length as well. My first bow I bought new was a High Country Sniper when High Country was a young company. The dealer was a real used car salesman. This was where I learned about short stringing a bow. He put a shorter string and cable on it to meet my draw length. This also reduced peak poundage of the bow. My bow peaked out at 63 lb on a 65-80 lb bow. Try another bow shop and have them order you a new set of cables and string to match the bow. If is still not up to poundage then it has to be the limbs have a problem or are not the correct ones.

Good luck
