OG string and cable length, Bowtechies help
 

OK,
I am going to order a spare set of strings for my OG. I love the stock strings, but I just want to have a spare on hand. There are no markings on my bow for the lengths of the string and cable, unless it is hiding in the camo somewhere. Also nothing in the manual or BC. I have heard and read here that Bowtech has played with the string and cable lengths to tweak cam position. I love the way my bow shoots now. How do I get the measurements for my bow?
Thanks,
John

The lenghts should be on the sticker on the inside of the limb.

If not get in contact with BT and order a set of strings for the OG

I have read and re-read the only sticker on the bottom limb and nothing about string length. It has poundage, DL, model and such, plus a bunch of patent numbers, but no string length numbers. I will call BT.
Thanks,
John

Mine shows 41 7/8" cable and 59 7/8" string. Others are 41 9/16" cable and 60" string. I shortened my cables , and took a twist or two out of my string to get draw length where I wanted it. My cables are now 41 3/4". String is unknown, as I didn't measure it after getting draw length and peep set.
Forgot to mention my draw stop is at the long end, and let off is 78%.

Stupid question, but where is it shown? Maybe I am just missing something. The only sticker I see is on the bottom limb, and there are no string lengths mentioned.

The sticker is where mine are shown.

Mine are also shown on my sticker on the lower limb of my Old Glory.

I have had my OG for 2 weeks and I there are no specs on the stickers or anywhere else that I can find.

I am also reading various different lengths on AT for the same cam that I have, so what is the correct specs? I have a 70#/28" OG...........

RE: OG string and cable length, Bowtechies help
 

#9 cams are 28" on the OG.

I am just going to talk to me dealer about the specs. Nothing printed on the sticker, and I have read different lengths have been used. No big deal, I will get them somehow.

...Whoaaa....You mean to tell me that there are bows out there with no string/cable specs on them and those same numbers are not printed in an owners manuel??? What's up with that? Matters not if the company is Hoyt, Mathews, or Tootyfruity, for what these bows cost that just shouldn't be!!

RE: OG string and cable length, Bowtechies help
 

OK, let's please not make a mountain out of a mole-hill. I own the bow and I am fine with it. A phone call will most likely answer the question. I know the Old Glory I shot at the shop before I ordered mine did have the numbers.

And if you want to compare with other companies with respect to strings, this is the ONLY bow that you do not need to take the stock strings off before you start shooting it. For what those bows cost, nearly $900 for a Hoyt in my neck of the woods, there is no way in the world you should have to spend another $70-130 on a string. That is truly a load of crap, if you ask me.

I only posted this to get a quick answer, but I will call Bowtech and get it straight from them.

I am also going to call Bowtech. My dealer has 2 lengths listed for the OG. Are these different lengths the cause of the difference between the original IBO speed and the Current speed?
