Creep Tuning?
 

What is creep tuning? I heard the term recently and am wondering what it is. I have a dual cam, is it something I should be doing?

HMMM. I thought I was the only one around here that called creep tuning " Supertuning" ?

GRIV' s origination post was a good one, and Dennis may have indeed originated it. I first heard about it myself from a local " guru" in the early 70' s also.

Problem was that with Dacron strings and harness materials that forever crept, we were forever tuning until the newer non-creep materials came along! Thankfully now you " Supertune" ' em, and enjoy them until your cables and string wear out!;) Pinwheel 12

When shooting out to 40 &50 yds. my grouping is in a vertical postion. My arrows are hit great left and right. They just seems to walk up and down. I check my nock point and it seems good. I assumed it was a timing issue so I tried to creep tune or super tune as PW calls it. Second problem. I' m shooting a Merlin Max 2000 with timing indicators on the cam module. When I twist my cable 1/2 twist it puts my cams out of syns. What am I missing? When I twist the cable I' m taking it from the cam end. Should I be twisting the cable from the Limb end where the cable hooks to the limb? Thanks JERRY

Jerry....Your timing marks can' t take into account the amount of high wrist or low wrist pressure you put on your grip. Go with the creep tune, even if your marks are a little off. If it isn' t a creep problem then it probably is a nock height problem. Move it either up or down (only the height of one thread of your serving) and check results. If it is worse go the other way. If it is a little less vertical, keep going till you get the tightest possible for you.

Thanks 23. You where right. It was partly my nocking point . The other equation was the spine of my arrow. I had to drop my draw weight and decrease my tip wt. to 75 gr. I also found that by decreasing my spring tension on my 3-D rover I also softened the release of the arrow and think it made it more forgiving. JERRY
