i own a 2005 mathews switchback, and i need to increase the draw length... i was wondering what the best way to do this. I know i can buy a new cam but is that the only way? If i did buy a new cam how easy would that be and how much would it cost? Thanks

It depends on how much change you need and weather you are shortening it or lengthening it. You can sqeeze out about a half inch by twisting the string but I dont like going more than abouta 1/4 either way. To get a new cam you would have to have a bowpress or take it to a pro shop. Its pretty simple but if your a begginer I would just take it to a pro shop and let them do it. It probably would cost about 75 bucks for the cam and work, thats just a guess though.

If it was me and I wanted to use the bow for the rest of the season...

If you are using a d-loop then just tie another d-loop in but make sure the string for the loop is a little bit longer than the string that is on there now. It is not very difficult to do and you could buy the string at most local shops. or have a local shop do it for a few dollars.

Just make sure you put it on there where the other one comes off and your sights should still be on.
