  9. I found a big problem with my bow....Wife brought it from sportmans warehouse(2 years ago) they set the bow up didn't have it set up right 1 cam rolled all the way back 1 didn't.....He adjusted it and kind of showed me how to shoot it ( no ones ever showed me correct way) .. He adjusted it but know I want to take it to a dealer to have them double check it...where I took it he wasn't to sure on settings as he sold Hoyt and Matthews...Find time to re sight it in and should be good to go I hope then practice with it
