    I'm thinking of cranking my poundage up another 5 punds or so. Easy enough to do that. But will I need to make any other adjustments to the bow? Is that going to change the DL, for example? I'm also assuming that some sight adjustments will be needed, but am wondering if I'm wrong there?

    THanks for the help in advance...

    As long as you turn your limb bolts equally both top and bottom the only thing you'll affect is poundage. Tiller should remain the same, DL will not change etc.. And you should only need to gang adjust your sights up to match your arrow point of impact. Likely your pin gap will not change however I'm not sure what bow your talking about so pin gap could change depending with speed increase. Gang adjust them first for your top pin and then check your next pin down for it's accuracy.

    Thanks guys. I'm actually just about to where I think I can max this bow out and still shoot it comfortably.It's taken some time to get there, but it was my goal for this summer to shoot and exercise my shoulders enough to be able to max out before deer season. Now that I'm not as worried about it affecting DL, I'm even happier.

    THanks again
