Default 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.

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...........

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.
