Title: Pelouze scale problem
Post by: bbassi on January 09, 2008, 04:36:00 PM
I received one of these new for Christmas. It consistently reads 3-4 lbs under the listed weights on the 5 bows I have measured. I have tried the adjustment knob with 0 results. Does anyone have any suggestions or did I just get a dud?

Second one in two days I've heard have this problem. The other was 5#s under every time.

Maybe your all assuming the weight marked on the bows are correct!!!! I have not seen a bowyer yet that uses other than a spring type scale and they are close at best and need to be calabrated from time to time.
