Is the 7/8" to the center of the shaft if so that is fine if the 7/8 is to the side of the shaft thats not good it sounds like you may either have to add twist to and from your yokes cables or if it is a duel cam maybe play with your top hats What model is it?  ?? |

I've never tuned a floating yoke system like that. I'd say there's something a little different about your string set that changed the tune a bit.

Well, I looked at my bow after I frequented my pro shop who is an authorized Mathews dealer. Looked at another Chill R. I found that I had routed my cables incorrectly through the roller guard. Put it to spec and then it had an 1.5" right tear which would be correct as in relation to having a left tear to begin with. Started to move the rest towards the riser and nothing really improved. Moved to the left after that and the tear started to go away. At almost 7/8" from the riser and a 1/16" nock high, beautiful bullet hole. In my installation I looked so carefully on how I routed those cables. I think one of my children got up in the middle of the night and switched it. It's always best to blame the children.

By the way the measurement from the riser was to the middle of the shaft. I believe original post stated that the measurement mentioned was 7/8" with the cables wrong. It was probably further than that. What's amazing to me that I was able to get the bow to shoot bullet holes with the cables reversed and shot broadheads where I was aiming. They did not fly like darts though. I will post results of broadhead flight with the cables routed correctly

Never gave flipping the cables a thought your dealer did you a quick solid.

Yes he did. Pacific Crest Archery and owner Ray Wurdinger of Salem, Oregon are of the highest caliber.

I'm going on the hunch that the yoke pieces are too large of a diameter so that instead of floating they are binding and causing cam lean. I will put the stock yoke pieces back on and give it a try. Stock Zebra brand strings (yokes in this case) have a diameter of .105. There was a guy named Brian who gave some advise on the former forum of Mathews that said many custom string makers make the yoke pieces too tight. I have used the Scorpion lube with no result. The rest is almost identical in position when I had the one cable incorrectly routed. Maybe Breathn can address this. Mathews isn't the only company to use this AVS type system with the ring. News at eleven! |

I've had that happen before......😏😡🤒 But I don't have any kids at home......must have been that darn guard cat that lives in my shop! |

I put the old gauge on the serving area of the present yokes and they read to be the largest in serving diameter of the three sets I have. Stock set of Zebra were second and another set that the string builder sent first (which were not the color I asked for, but he let me keep anyway) were the smallest diameter. I used those. Also changed the top hats on the bottom putting the thicker one on the left and the slimest one on the right. Bullet hole with just slightly over 13/16" from the riser. The thicker the diameter of the serving can cause the yokes to bind and not float like they're suppose to. I also lubed the serving with Scorpion venom serving lube. Took the bow out to my range and at 40 yards with broadheads (Kudo points. They are a single blade bevel cut head). Hit a 2"wide by 3" tall piece of foam. I was tired so I didn't move any further away and stopped shooting at that point. I'm happy with that and now can just enjoy my bow. These things can stress me out at times but when all is said and done it wasn't that hard after all.
