Cam tuning assures straight and level
travel of the arrow (nock travel) as it
travels thru and from the bow. Tuned
Cams will benefit accuracy and keep
noise and vibration to a minimum. To
determine if any tuning is necessary, first
draw your bow using your release aid
(if you use one when shooting), and an
arrow to prevent dry fire. As you approach
full draw, slow down and watch as the
cable stops (the ends of each draw
length module) move toward each cable,
as shown in the diagram. It is helpful to
ask a friend to examine this for you while
you draw the bow. Each cable should
contact the end of each cam’s draw length
module at the same time. If your cams
look like those on the left side of the
diagram, they are properly tuned. If one
cable touches before the other, as seen
on the right side of the diagram, some
tuning is required.
First, relax the bow properly in a
bowpress before attempting to make any
adjustments.
