I'm new to bow setups and tuning. I don't have a local shop so I want to learn this on my own. Any help is appreciated.
I bought a used Mathews V3 31". Installed 60 lb 29 inch 80% let-off mods.
Just got in new GAS strings. Bought an EZ Green press, draw board attachment, and most of the tools needed to set up and tune a bow.
I installed the strings this weekend, shot the bow a dozen times, and then noticed the angle of the yolk cables coming off the pulleys towards the cable guard/ pulley is rather steep. I had taken pictures of my stock strings before removing them, but didn't notice the angle the yolks come off the pulleys and I don't know if this is normal.
For reference after installing the strings and cables, the ATA is right at 31" and the ATA is at or just above 6". The draw weight is 60.6 lbs with limbs maxed out, so it all looks in spec.
I'm working on setting up my D-Loop and peep, but don't want to blow my bow up or mess up the cams if this is not right. Pictures to follow.
My question- Can someone look at their stock V3 and confirm whether this is right or wrong?
