I was shooting with a guy tonite that has a Truth 2, he was having some rubbing problems as well. Have you figured out your problem yet. He has only shot two days with it and is going to shot in the state shoot this weekend. I won't see him until Monday, I will see if he gets his straightened out.

Just got a reply back this morning and this is what she said.

It sounds like you may have a little cam lean.  This could be caused by several things.  First, take it to an authorized dealer and have them check to see if the cable is tracking in the cam at full draw.  Do you hear a noise when you come to full draw like the cable is popping into the groove?  Next, have the dealer check that all the spacers are there.  He can also move one of the thinnest spacers (30/1000's) to the side that is hitting track 1.  If this does not cure the problem, then you may have a weak limb on one side.

The serving wear is a nature of the beast with single cam bows.  No need to panic.  On the factory made strings and cables the serving is not that tight.  If you take your bow in and have the wear areas of your string and cable reserved, I would be willing to bet your problem will go away.  I had this same thing happen to my bow.  After having my lesssons done on manufactured strings and cables vs hand made and having the work done on my bow, I haven't had a problem since.
