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.
