Looking for some guidelines of when cam lean becomes "excessive". The arrow I'm shooting comes out of Archer's Advantage as being slightly stiff, but I was getting weak tears out of the bow. I'm wondering if I should move up a spine or potentially focus on shooting with a more neutral grip since my bow tech was able to get a bullet hole immediately, but when I shot, it tore weak.
Bow is a Hoyt Helix Ultra at 67#, 30'' draw. Arrows are 300 spine RIP TKOs, 29'' carbon-to-carbon, 190 grains of point weight (90 grains of ethics components and 100 grain tip), standard 9 grain nocks, and AAE Max stealth vanes three-fletched.
When I lay an arrow on the cam, it crosses my string about halfway between my peep and where the string comes out of the top cam. Rest appears to be set at 13/16'' off the riser. Broadheads flew out of the bow stupidly good this past fall. I was hitting right with my field points out to 80 yards.
I'm wondering if the cam lean I have is excessive to get the bow in tune and if I should try tuning the arrow to the bow instead of vice-versa. Also, can Hoyt cams be shimmed? Thanks in advance!
