Who uses module sizes LT1 / LB1?

[Dugga Boy]

I got these modules on my XL.
They are the largest available and supposed to give the bow a DL of 32".

However I got 32.85" DL by AMO Standard.
A-A and brace height specs are perfect.

Does anybody of you knuckledraggers noticed a similar phenomenom?

Thanks

Markus...the XL's are running long. Mine with a 28.5" mod is 29.5" AMO and with a 29" mod is running 30" AMO. Elite is supposed to be rectifying the issue with my bow and I'll know by next week if it is fixed.

Thanks Texas.
I wasn't aware that this is a common thing on the XLs over the whole range of drawlengths.

Since I want to use as much powerstroke as possible, I'm glad that I got the bow in 90#.
That way I can tune the bow by the use of longer cables, resulting in a slightly longer A-A and less brace height while keeping the big modules on the cams. That causes the curve to gain peak weight earlier and puts some more pre-tension on the string in brace height. From my experience that helps a lot to bring down the vibrations pretty close to zero. I just shot the bow with a rest only yet though and the vibrations are very little and on a low frequency.

The force draw curve is excellent and I don't care loosing some poundage by using longer cables. Less limb deflection thus a longer life of the limbs is more important to me.

Heck, I love this bow. :)

When I'm done with the tuning, I will post some specs.

Thanks again

I like the way you intend to tune; if I ever get me an XXL, I would try myself the same thing too, even if I am mainly a spottie and my D.L is only 28.5".
Wouldn´t mind a 38" ATA with 7.75" B.H. XXL though!
Keep us posted on final ATA, B.H., loss of D.L. and peak weight and how much did you lengthen cables and string to achieve newer specs.
Thanks in advance,
Javier Martinez.

Javier,

it's already done. Still with some test cables though.
I have some "reinforced" Vaportrail cables on the way.

I just went from 40 3/16" to 40 3/8".
Now I have the perfect specs of 36.00" A-A and 8.05" brace height.
The bow still got 87# and 32.75" DL.

I hope beeing able to do some test shots the next week. Will see if I need a smaller module. From the few shot in the workshop I feel fine.
