The sad truth is you will need a bow press for that. It's simpler to take it to a shop and have qualified personnel do it for you.

How do you re-string a compound bow?

To re-string a compound bow, you must first get the bow limbs to bend. The easiest way (and the safest) is to place the bow, with the string above the bow (it will look like a smile) in what is called a "bow press". Once the bow is in the press, it is pushed down to bend the limbs ("compressed"), causing the string to go slack; the string is now removed from the cams and the new string is installed. De-compress the bow and remove it from the press.The bow press can be somewhat expensive to purchase, so it may be best to take the bow to an archery shop and have the string replaced there. Due to the amount of pressure required to bend the bow's limbs, as well as the need to keep them bent while changing the string, attempting to restring a compound bow without the proper equipment is definitely not recommended.


How do you adjust draw length on bear scout bow?

The Bear Scout bow is a twin cam bow that can be adjusted for both draw length and draw weight. As the draw length increases so does the draw weight and vise-versa. The draw length and weight is determined by the amount of rotation the cams experience during a full draw cycle. For example, If the cams rotate 270 deg it will have a longer and stronger draw than if the cams only rotate 180 deg. With twin cam bows this rotation is determined by the % of string on each side of the cam. The front side of the cam contains the string that will dead end on the other limb while the rear side of the cam contains the string used to nock the arrow. The scout bow is equipped with cams that allow easy movement of the string back-n-forth from front to rear. First before adjusting, note the position of the brass nock that is pinched on the string somewhere by each cam. This position is important to remember for adjusting your bow in the correct direction. In order to adjust the rotation of the cams, the bow must be disassembled as stated in manual (push down on limbs and pull cam assembly off). Then unwind the string from the cam. You will notice that the cam can slide along the string. If you want to shorten the draw length and decrease the draw weight, then slide the string so the brass nock is on the front side of the cam. If you want to lengthen the draw length and increase the draw weight, then slide the string so the brass nock is on the rear side of the cam. Then do the same for the opposite cam. Note that the brass nocks must be in the same location on each cam. Then reassemble as stated in the manual. Tada your done and ready to shoot. I hope this was helpful…


Is the pse bow madness xs better value than the pse brute x?

nope, brute is better value has same cam as madness bow,shoots close to same in fps. 100-150 dollars cheaper, brute bow is physically as tough a bow as any 1500 to 2000 bow on the market period. I have owned 11 new pse bows and many other big named bows and the bruteX with proper setup is as good if not better than any out there. No other bow has the same feel as a pse only someone who has owned many of them will tell you that. if a bow doesn't feel correct in your hand then don't waste your money & time on it no matter who makes it or how cool it looks.

What do you need to do if you dry-fire a bow?

Dry firing a bow can damage the bow and hurt you. If you already dry fired it, and you are asking this question, then the string probably did not break and it did not do some serious damage to your arm or body. Now, the bow may have been damages, so i would inspect it thoroughly. A bow should not be dry fired, it is too much force for the bow to take, and the string can break.

How does a esentric cam mechanism work?

There are many derivations of the eccentric cam, but the basic principle is consistent. The cam itself may be round, elliptical, semi-conical, or irregularly shaped to increase or reduce workload at different points of its rotation. The one constant of an eccentric cam is that the pivot point is NOT located the geometric center of the cam. Sometimes the cam is used in conjunction with a "cam follower". Probably the best known example of this is the cam shaft of an automobile. The "lobes", or high spots on the cam, lift rods (the cam followers) that open the valves of the engine. Another use of an eccentric cam is in a pulley type system. In this system the cam acts like power-torque converter. In other words, it changes the power required to rotate the cam. The math for explaining how this works is fairly complex and is best explained using calculus, so for brevity I will explain with an example. Gently roll a boiled egg end over end on a smooth surface. You will notice that it speeds up and slows down as it goes through the rotations. As the egg rolls to the tip it slows down. As the egg continues to roll past the tip, it speeds up. Then it slows down again and then speeds up. This is how an eccentric pulley works as well. As the "lobe" or thick side of the pulley rotates to the center stress point of the cable, the work required is greater. Once the center of the lobe passes the center of the stress point of the cable the work becomes easier. One of the best known applications of this system is a compound archery bow. Drawing the bow is hard because the lobe must be pulled between the stress point of the string and the pivot point. Once the bow is drawn, the lobe has passed the stress point of the string. Holding the bow drawn is easy because upon release the string needs to pull the lobe back between the stress point and the pivot point. I hope this helps.
