bear method. sharp cam
« on: July 03, 2013, 05:28:58 PM »
So just had a bear mothod come apart ona customer. The cam had a very sharp edge on it right where the eye on the string goes into the can grove.  Guy got away with a little string slap but the bow is down needs new cable string and???  If you have one id suggest checking this spot out on the cam. Have someone pull the string an see if it has a edge :twocents:

Whoa, that could have been a lot worse. My buddy almost had the same thing happen to him on his bow. He just bought a Diamond Outlaw and we went to the range to sight it in. He mentioned he should wax his string and I didn't think too much of it because he just got it and has only shot it a few times in his backyard. As we are sighting in our bows, he mentions waxing the string again because he said it was starting to fray. So I take a look and realize his string is cut in half if not more  :yike:.
After inspecting the bow, I found that the lower cam had quite a few sharp metal burs.
