Thread: Bare shaft tuning

Did a shop set it up for you? Theres quite a bit that should really be confirmed first before you even start trying to tune using the rest watch the latest video of John Dudley of Nock On Archery seting up Joe Rogans new bow. It will give you an idea of whats required to be done out of the box. Ideally the rest should only correct minor issues.

No I bought it online so it arrived factory setup. I'll have a look for that video aswell. The more I look into it the more other stuff like cam timing (even though its single cam) and cam lean etc that could be causing some of the problem. All very interesting

Morning, yes, that could be some of your problem. Has the draw length been set for you? As you shoot a new bow the strings stretch a bit so the timing tends to bugger out a bit. It can all be very confusing.

Um factory setup isn't really a thing unless you mean a store like advanced archery set it up then shipped it to you. Did the rest and sight etc come fitted? Is there a peep fitted?

It come with everything attached out of the box. I set my peep and my draw length and centered my rest and went from there.

Do these limbs look to be on an angle from the riser or is that normal...

If you took that picture exactly from above than yes that that looks a bit wonky.

Is that worth worrying about?

I'd be careful mate. It seems your a bit out of your depth. It's hard to tel from photos but if it is leaning your more likely to derail your bow and have a big fuck up. It looks like you brought a RTS (ready to shoot) kit. Which is a misnomer. In that they mean it's got all the bits to shoot but is most definitely not tuned. The cams can be moved with bushings if it's similar to my pse which may mean they are out of wack leading to the lean if there is lean (hard to tell from the photos). I'd go to see Paddy Long in Chch after lockdown. Www.bowhunt.co.nz is his website I think.
