embarrassing questions

[dumas]

Just got a 60# x-force super short and it is a little beast of a bow. The string is 1+ inch too long and I am trying to practice with it while waiting for a new module to fix the draw length. I am having a hard time pulling it back and that last inch before it breaks is a muther. Can I loosen the bow completely up or will that be unsafe? And what does one full turn equate to in terms of poundage?

[huntinfool]

Usually one turn is 3-5 lbs. Do not turn them out too far so that the bottom of the limb is above the limb pocket.

[Dr. D]

What he said......1 turn is usually about 3-4 lbs.

[Target-panic]

What they said, and adjust the top and bottom limbs equally.

Thanks for the help fellas.

note to self, get back in the gym

Once you get the correct module the draw should feel much better.

trying to get another inch of draw length out of your body is usually where the "muther" comes into play.
