Wow!  Even with those measurements you took we almost missed the whacker and center serving.  I know all the servings were within 1/8" in length and location.  Now that's going to bug me for months :chuckle:  That's the reason I almost never make a string without the bow in hand.   We can fix it if you want to.  If you end up not putting on any speed buttons (I never do) we can reduce those end servings a couple inches real easy.

That's funny!  I make repeated complaints to nearly every bow manufacturer when I get my yearly test bows.  You would think if these strings are made to their specifications they would at least have the whacker servings in the right place.  Yet very seldom do I find them positioned correctly.  Hoyt is probably the most consistent with their serving locations, but even then I do get the occasional bow with 50% of the whacker off the suppressor.  My favorite bows in Bear and Bowtech are getting better, though that is not saying much!  Most shops will make that an easy fix, but few do it in a way that does not effect the peep rotation.
