    Bow shoots solid and groups well set here. Im wanting a little more speed.

    you will get more speed when you rotate the cams more to hit at least the first dot if not the second or third. Like it is now you're way off from peak efficiency.

    adding to what Maybee has asked
    Where is it hitting peak draw weight in the draw? should be around 6 to 6.5'. And as everyone else has said you are not getting peak effiency. If 68#'s is the max weight then it tells me you need to put twists in the cable to bring the poundage up, which will rotate the cams to the timing marks. but after you get the poundage right then you will probaly have to put some twists in the string to keep the draw length right..

    DB, my cam timing looks just like the pictures you posted, its even on both side, but not intersecting any timing marks. What did you do to correct it? I'm assuming add a twist or 2, but not sure if you add to the bottom cam, and/or top?

    I had to purchase a new string. I did put more twist in it when I relaced the string. I got back on the marks. Seems to be in specs now.

    I bet mine needs replaced too. Its the origonal string from last year. I knew something was up when my yardage pin spacing grew suddenly. I'll probably wait till after bow season to replace.
