Where to get compound bow technical education?

Where to get compound bow technical education?

Good day to all, anyone know where to get educated on the technical aspects of a/my compound bow? I would like to learn more about tuning my own bow, the cause and affect, and the what, where, when, and why. What does ATA affect? What is cam lean and how it affects my shot, etc. etc. etc. Does Mathews have a compound bow technician manual? Anyway if anyone can recommend any good books, resources or classes, that information would be greatly appreciated.  :)

Thanks, and have a great day!!!

I've heard good things about the book, "Technical Bowhunting" by Joe Bell.

Another one that was recommended to me is "Tuning Your Compound Bow" by Larry Wise.  I haven't picked it up yet, but planning to.

I actually learned a lot from ArcheryTalk.com.  Of course there are a lot of computer rocky's...but if you follow some of the resources on there (bow shop owners etc.) there is a lot to be learned there.

I'm not sure where you live, but there is an archery shop next to VanWinkle's Interiors here in Everett, that will teach you all that stuff.
