Title: twisting peep
Post by: heavy hauler on August 07, 2009, 06:36:06 PM: i bought a new mathews drenlin recently and the peep started twisting a week or so ago.my old bow had the surgical tubing that kept it straight. is this something i will have to adjust before every shot? or will it break in and get better?

Yeah that, even the strings that don't stretch or creep have to align them selfs coming off the cams, usually 50-100 shots. Once they are set in place they should be good.

not sure what peep you got?
