Title: twisted limb ?
Post by: artelkhunter on August 28, 2010, 09:02:00 PM
Just strung a 57# limbs on a takedown I just bought and I'm not sure what's going on with the bottom limb. the string for the limbs had some type of silincer on the flemish ends. Never really seen that before. As soon as I strung the bow i noticed the bottom limb did not track straight with string.  so I unstrung the bow took the silincers off the loop ends and restrung it. the string still does not track straight every time. It does seem to shoot ok. i've just shot it a few times. when you pull the bow and let it down there, is a click when the string tracks back into the string channel. Any suggestions?  :help:

It shouldn't do that.  If you just bought it, I would try to return it and get my money back.

If you own a bow for a while and the limbs go out of allignment, there are ways to correct it, which don't always work and if they do work, aren't always a permanent correction.  But if you just bought the bow, it should be in allignment.
