Anyone shooting a soft yolk on their cable?
What benifits to this (other than your cable finding center)do you get from this set up??

Let' s try this again, the one I just did must have ended up in cyber world.
I have a soft yoke on my bow right now. I wanted to see if I liked it or not. Had to make a smaller bar to hold the posts as my string making posts were too far apart to allow me to make one. The only benefits I see on a soft yoke is that you can make it a larger diameter (more strands). Using 450 Plus I make a split yoke cable a 12 strand. That makes each leg of the Y only having 6 strands. Seems thin the first time you see it but it is plenty strong. My soft yoke would be 12 strands so twice the thickness. The other benefit would be cost for a buss cable only should be much cheaper (and about 1/2 the time to make). I don' t think the self centering is all that important. You can twist each leg of the split yoke up to center the cable with the cam. Years ago Hoyt served their soft yokes right above the buss cable and said then that it allowed adjusting of the legs of the soft yoke to center it. Now they don' t serve it (personally I think it is because it' s cheaper to not spend the time doing it) and say it centers itself. It' s up to what you feel more comfortable with.
Oh yeah, When I make up a new cable I will be making it as a split yoke, I just like it better. Just my personal preference and nothing against the soft yoke.

One of the guys I know that shoots for Hoyt was showing me his Havoctec and I noticed his soft yoke and asked him about it. He explained to me that he laser tunes all his bows and setups and that by using the soft yoke it his will always find center.
I was wondering if their were any draw backs to using the soft yoke?
I noticed on my Parker Ultra Lite 31 that with such a short axle to axle and a short draw length that the cable causes a bit of twist or should I say the end of the limb at the top wheel looks angled ( I looks like it pulls enevenly do to the angle the cable travels to reach the cable guard ) so I had to wonder does my cable find true center due to the angle I see in the top limb end? Or is this wrong thinking on my part? If I am correct in my thinking would a soft yoke help to correct this, and give my cable true center when at full draw?

Lady Forge, I don' t know but it couldn' t hurt especially if someone who laser tunes feels it does. Any bow should be able to have a soft yoke, just measure the length of the split and subtract from the total length to give you the length of the buss cable (Hoyt has a 6" leg -12" total length of the soft yoke- so my bow takes a 40 1/2" split yoke=34 1/2 " buss cable plus 6" -12" folded in 1/2- soft yoke). It sounds good that an unserved soft yoke will allow self centering but if I remember right (and this has been 4 years last I tried it) it didn' t work right. Anyway back then Hoyt was telling the dealer from the shop I helped at to serve them. Won' t hurt to try it, you' ll just be out the cost of the cable (if you have someone you know who makes them then it should cost alot less). Good luck and let me know if it does work. I guess I could cut off the serving on mine but I have it twisted so it is centered and don' t think I' ll try yet.

Im wont be trying it right now since I just had a new Stone Mountain String and Cable put on my bow a few weeks before I went to shoot at The IBO National at Bedford. I am rather tempted to try it on my bow at a latter time though.
I did notice that where the cable meets the yoke on my friends Hoyt it is not served , looked interesting Thanks for all your help
