J, who put your cams on your general? Because when i got my new limbs put on i was told that if your cam is leaning the limbs are put on backwards. so you need to swip swap....

I watched him put them on, and read the instructs right along with him, checked it with the spott hogg laser today, all is good, just being paranoid,

thanks for all the help.

Hey fellow okie. I have a General and I have cam lean on my lower cam. I was told that they all had slight cam lean....im sure that was to just shut me up and get me out the door. I will go back and ask the question again. I may bring up the limb question about them being installed backwards

cool, i have also been told by bowtech, that a touch of lean is inherent to the design of the bow and the cable roller/guide

You may be right j but it shouldnt be that noticable cause when my proshop was switching them out i was there watching him and he was on the phone with BOWTECH and they said there wsnt supposed to be any lean wat so ever they said that you have a greater chance of Failur with tension and then thats when we had to take the bow all back apart and switch the limbs...which was a pain..you would think they would put a L and R for left and right..IMO

the lean is like 1/128 inches or less lean, and if I relax the bow, take the cables off the guide, it is not there. I have put it up against the general at the shop, and it looks just like it.
