Leo Posted July 3, 2011 Report Share Posted July 3, 2011 I'm sorry you had an issue with a part failure but please take heed of the following. On the draw stops of "Binary" type cams, it's a good idea to use the blue "non-permanent" loctite. You don't want them to move, EVER. The draw stop positions are extremely important to these systems! When you have upper and lower cam draw stops, on a binary system, take care to make sure they are in the exact same position on each cam. If they are in different positions, both stops will often still bottom out at max draw. When this happens the cams are starting out, out of timing. This causes an imbalance that is impossible to tune out. (ei. your bow shoots like crap!) Make absolutely sure you put the new draw stop in the exact same position as the other cam when you get it! I've personally tuned bows that were "un-tunable" because of this very issue. Match the draw stop positions and voila the bow tunes easily!
