Are there benefits to having the yoke in the cable.I am having a new set of cables made for my Cybertec and am thinking that I would like the solid cable instead of the yoke.What do you think.Ron

I believe the reason for the yoke is to equalize the pull on both limbs. If you go away from the yoke, you might see the limbs being twisted and the idler leaning at full draw. That could cause your accuracy to wander around a bit and cause problems with tuning.

If it's working for you, Navy, then enjoy. Eliminating the yoke might work fine with particular bows, but it won't work with all bows, all the time. I sure wouldn't rely on Limbsavers to equalize the pull on a split limb system. That goes double if the idler on the bow in question is dual track, or if it's a dual cam bow. The string is not centered on those and that WILL put more strain on the limb closest to the string. It might not do anything more than give you some tuning headaches and some accuracy issues, but it's not good.

I share your concern about the yokes, at least enough to regularly wax the living tar out of my yokes' contact points with a graphite/silicone impregnated wax to keep that string well lubricated. I think that makes more sense than redesigning the bow's cabling system.

Oh, by the way... Changing the bow's rigging and disposing of the yoke will void your bow's warranty. Just thought that needed to be mentioned.
