admiral timing?
In my other post jeff suggested that I check the timing on my new admiral(crap THATS what I forgot to ask the guy at the shop)the book says that the down cable should be on a specific dot but doesnt say what one.
The guy at my shop wasnt sure, he is going to call bowtech,might be late this afternoon. does any one knowwhat marks to use? also one cam isadvanced more than the other-is this normal? thanks Mark |
RE: admiral timing?
My Admiral shows 9 dots on the top cam and 7 on the bottom. The dots will be different due to the different cable angles from the roller guard. More dots on the top cable because the rollers are above the center of the grip.

RE: admiral timing?
Yes, it's completely normal for one cam to be more advanced than the other. As WWAG stated, the cable rolleris not in the center of the bow. Either is the point where your nocking point is. On a properly tuned bow, one cam has to be advanced slightly of the other.
These bows really need to be timed at full draw. Both module draw stops must hit the cables at the same time. |
RE: admiral timing?
thanks for the input guys! I dont know if I should change any thing until I walk back and broad head tune.The first shot after installing the limbdriver it shot a perfect bullit hole in paper.I might make a draw board and check it but I dont think I will move anything just yet.

RE: admiral timing?
I just looked at it and it only has a stop on th top cam.

RE: admiral timing?
Ah, my apologies guys. I didn't realized that! I have yet to buy a CP style bow. Now I'm curious.
WWAG, can you elaborate for me how you would set the synch on these bows now? I'm just not seeing how you can properly synchronize the cams to compenstate from not pulling from the center of the string at brace. Perhaps I'm missing something here.:eek: |

Perhaps I'm missing something here.:eek: For the Admiral, I'd recommend to perfectly sync both cams to the exact same orientation at brace and at full draw, install a bottom draw stop post and adjust it to contact the cable at the same instant as the top draw stop post. This gets the cams starting out at the same instant and the stops stopping the draw at the exact same instant. With two stops you won't overdraw the single stop and "bend" that cable, slightly altering that cable length. With two stops on an Admral you would be doing the same thing as modifying one of the stops on an Allegiance cam system and having them both stop at the same time. |
RE: admiral timing?
thanks swamp,all I was getting at was I dont know ifI will change anything if everything else comes in good.right now it is shooting bullet holes, 400gr arrow is going out at280fps @ 65lb.(havent had time during the daylight to get outside and do the rest)
Im pretty new at this so I dont know if it shoots good groups at good speedsif really need to change the timing.this post actualy started as having to do with trying to make an already quiete bow quieter! this is all great info that I need to know any way!with all that being said-If it is shooting good should I change the timing?and if I do how would I know that it is correct(with out the camirror):Dif it is normal to be different.:eek: Mark |
