I'm pretty much over using proshops and am looking at getting a press. For those who have done the same, what resources/books did you use to train yourself? Thanks.
Most of mine came from trial and error. Luckily my binary cam bows never had any issues perfectly BH tuning out to 60 yards with just rest and cable adjustments. But with a bow with yokes it's even easier.
Test and tune with what you feel comfortable doing. John dudley on youtube is a great start. You will find more videos as you go for what you are working on. Trial and error....
Agree that watching Dudley's videos is a fantastic resource. Start with this one just because I and others feel your pain on proshops:
and then just click on other ones that interest you.
Here's another good one showing how he does a build from scratch:
Above all, give yourself a little grace and take all actions in small increments, noting when things don't go as expected. If you thought the paper tear would get better, why did it get worse or even more frustrating stay the same? It's fine to start with a tuning formula (for x problem take y action) but try to understand why a twist speeds up or slows down a cam for example and you'll gradually get comfortable puzzling out just about anything.
