I threw my TRX 38 G2 on the drawboard to find out my bottom cam timing was way off. I fixed this with a few twists in the cable. It is only a few months old so I assume the factory strings have stretched a little.
Initially this bow drew at 63lbs when new using a LCA hand held scale. It was currently at 58lbs and the ATA was measuring 5mm-6mm over 38 inches. I also noted the strings did not go through the cam timing marks by a long way. I also couldn't get any clearance with my string stop.
I added more and more twists and now my ATA is just 2mm long and the string stop has clearance but now my poundage is measuring 65lbs. It is a 60lb bow. The strings are still a fair way off the cam timing marks but each string looks the same. I removed a twist to get it to 63lbs, like it was before.
Should I untwist the cables to return to 60lb and forget getting the ATA down to 38 inches? Should I be concerned that my strings do not pass through the cam timing holes on the cams?
Should I be doing something else?
Thanks,
Dan
