BowhunterAZ Report post Posted June 18, 2012 Are you drawing it back with fingers or a release? You can derail the string if you are drawing it with fingers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

outdoor rush Report post Posted June 18, 2012 Sounds like cam lean, hold the bow straight out and see if your idler wheel is leaning one way or the other. A lot of times your yolk needs twists put in it after changing strings. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
devilincatcountry Report post Posted June 19, 2012 Thanks for input! Bow is in specs,cant figure it out ! Taking it to shop to see what they say ! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tines Report post Posted June 19, 2012 Bows are pretty simple machines. If you shot this bow 75-100 times and then it started doing this, more than likely something wasn't right after the shop threw it back together in the first place (you just didn't notice). What you see "within specs" doesn't always mean draw length, weight and axle to axle. Take it to a reputable place with a tech who knows what they're doing and I'm sure it'll be figured out rather quickly. My guess is you've either got it strung through wrong or cam lean Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

123456 Report post Posted June 21, 2012 Time to buy a new Heli-M. I would guess that your string and/or cable is wrong length by just a little bit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
