CAM ADJUSTMENTS


Adjusting Draw Length – Perimeter

Weighted Modular Single Cam

The perimeter weighted single cam has a modular

draw length adjustment. Most draw length
adjustments can be made without the use of a

bow press. Draw length changes are made by
simply changing modules and moving the draw

stop. Accessory modules are available from your

local Bear Archery dealer in one-inch draw length

increments. Each module is numbered, with #10
being the longest draw length and #4 being the

shortest. To change modules remove the socket

head cap screws from the present module,

remove that module and replace with a new
module. Such module draw length adjustments

will not affect peak draw weight. Modules are
right and left hand specific.

USE ONLY RH

MODULES ON RIGHT HAND CAMS AND LH
MODULES ON LH CAMS!

When a module is

changed, the draw stop must also be moved to
the corresponding setting marked on the cam.

Draw stop must be positioned so that the side
marked “OUT” faces out.


Additionally, fine draw length adjustments of ½

inch can be made by removing the bowstring
from the standard “dot” string post and

reattaching it to either the “+” or “-“ string posts

on the cam. Moving the string to the “+” post

will increase draw length by ½” and moving the
string to the “-“ post will decrease draw length by

½”. To make such adjustments, it is first
necessary to remove tension from the harness

system of the bow by compressing the bow in a

bow press. A fixed or portable bow press must

be used! Under NO circumstances can this
relaxing of the harness system be

accomplished by simply backing out limb
bolts.
