Hey I am posting this for ALL Hoyt shooters.
I am pumped that Hoyt finally revised the whole manual and included some great information. Yes, they did leave some of the cookie cutter stuff in it but they also included information that I feel has been necessary to the home tuner for a long time now.
It has a real picture of the nock set and you can see that Hoyt sets their bows up to have the arrow slightly above center of the Berger hole. This helps with some of the fletching clearance issues.
It talks about the timing/sync and shows a diagram with instructions on how to
adjust which cable to speed up which cam. NICE. I am still a believer in creep tuning especially if you do not shoot the bow at max -1/4 turn.
And the information that I found to be the most interesting was that they have finally put in writing that the strings are measured with the ATA standard. Now if you go here,
http://www.archerytrade.org/publications.html
and click on the "ATA Standards" link it opens this document,

So now this re affirms what a few great Hoyt tuners, like JAVI, have said in the past. You should tune your bow with the strings you have and then order replacements. Almost all string makers make the strings to a finished length.
I suggest that no matter which Cam and 1/2 you shoot that you read the 2009 Hoyt manual as it contains some great information for all Hoyt shooters.
I could let you to go to Hoyt and find it but I am a nice guy and decided to link it here for all to grab and read.
