USER’S GUIDE
Setting-Up Your Bow
NOCKING POINT PLACEMENT:
Finger shooters: For the initial setting, install the
nocking point on the bowstring approximately
5/16" plus the arrow width above a point where a
horizontal line from the rest intersects the string.
Release Aid shooters: Install the nocking point
the width of the arrow above a point where a
horizontal line from the rest intersects the string.
When the arrow is in position on the rest the
arrownock should fit snug against the bottom of
the nocking point.
ARROWREST ADJUSTMENT:
The in/out position of the arrowrest should be
adjusted so that the arrow is in alignment with the
string when shooting with a release aid. The arrow
tip should be ~1/2 shaft diameter left of center on
a right-handed bow, (opposite for left-handed)
when shooting with fingers.
SIGHT ADJUSTMENT:
When adjusting the sight pin locations, always
remember to "follow the group". That is, if the
shot group is to the left of the target, move the
sight pins to the left. If the shot group is low,
move the sight pins down.
CABLE GUARD ADJUSTMENT &
INSTALLATION:
Install the cable guard as shown in Figure A.
Adjust the cable guard so the cables just clear
the arrow vanes. On bows using an offset
cable guard rod, adjustments must be done
with the rod in the up position (approximately
1 o’clock) as shown in Figure B (11 o’clock for
left handed bows). Excessive arrow clearance
may cause the cable to track incorrectly on the
wheels and cause personal injury and/or
damage to the bow.
