    Help please!

    Im currently shooting 400 cabelas stalker extreme arrows and i keep getting really bad fletching contact on my riser. But it doesnt affect accuracy as i could still shoot 3" groups at 40 yards, just would make me feel better if i could fix this problem. Any ideas what it could be?
    DL:27.5"
    #:60lbs
    Arrows 27.5" long and 100grain tips

    your gonna have to paper tune it for sure, rotate arrow to clear vane walkback tune and broadhead tune. that should get you fixed up.

      Have you tried to move your rest out just a tad (1/32") at a time. Then shoot again. Paper tuning would help but make sure all of your specs are correct before attempting to tune. Nothing worse than trying to tune a bow that is not in spec. (from experience). I like to use a spray on powder applied to the bow and rest to check for contact. Once your though it just wipes right off and is very visible, get the cheep stuff. Specs. then tune is my suggestion. Of course if your shooting 3" groups at 30 yds. you may just want to live with it for a while. Naa, ya gotta mess with it.

            I didnt know that bow go go to 60#? If you are getting contact it will show in the paper tune. I always do that first making the rest easy stuff

              You should get cable contact long before you get riser contact.
              Things are way out of whack.
              Get your bow to a pro-shop ASAP.

                What Rocky said. If you're getting decent groups banging off the riser imagine what you'd do with it centershot. And you won't be able to shoot a broadhead worth a dang like it is now.

                    With that bow, it's hard to get center-shot without slight cable contact.
                    If you're crashing the riser, there's no telling what kind of tear in paper you could get.
                    There's quite a few steps to set up the Razor Edge, ( serving split harness is the first thing I do, then adjust cam lean, time cams, then set center-shot), so......, to answer your question, by you saying you're getting a nasty right tear, there's no way to know what might be causing it.
                    Take it to someone that really knows bows, and get it properly set up.
                    Although the Razor Edge is capable of shooting at 60 lbs, and 27.5 inches, it will take it's toll quickly on this bow, as the limbs torsional stability is not that of a full-sized bow.(strings are less than stellar also)
                    The Razor Edge is a youth bow with the ability to grow, until the shooter can graduate to a full-sized bow.
                    They are priced right though.

                        Also check to make sure your cable-rod has not backed out.

                            Wow your rest is WAY inside center. Looks like it is right next to the riser when down correct?

                            Take it to a shop, and let them fix it for you. It will be the easiest fastest way to get going.
