    Default GT500 - Put New Answer Cams on It?

    I bought a 2008 GT500 recently and the pull seems much harder than on the newer elite bows. It has 70# limbs and is set up at 29.5" which works OK for me. I took the bow to a local archery shop and he couldn't find anything wrong with it.

    A tech suggested I put new Answer cams and new strings and cables on it to get an easier draw. He wasn't sure of the cost, maybe $200. I guess the Answer is built from the GT500 bows and so the new cams can be put on the GT500 limbs.

    Does this sound crazy? Anyone tried it?

    I have not seen anything on putting Answer cams on one. But I just did a Frankenbow build with the Hunter cams on a 2010 GT500 that I bought with Cuda cams. It has a very smooth draw and through my chrono it was hitting an IBO of 313 at 28.5" draw. It seems to have the same specs as the Answer, and I have Answer strings and cables on it now. Have not shot it with Answer strings and cables, I hope it will do a little better than it did with the old twisted up test cables

    What happened to the double, extra long post that were posted immediatedly after CarolinerHunter7's original post? It was full of jibberish, total nonsense. Did the moderator remove them?
