    I’m having a hard time tuning my new bow. Nasty nock-left tear.
    So far I have:
    Moved the rest right and left then put back into center-shot
    Moved roller guard as far as clearance will allow
    Gone up and down in arrow spine, arrow point weight, & Nock weight
    And changed my grip to every combination I can think of.
    I’ve swapped limbs in a few patterns and moved shims. I can force a bullet hole but only after inducing deliberate torque.

    Does anyone know the proper deflection chart for the limbs?

    I shoot a Ritual, and was having problems with a nock right .... I changed my grip to what this guys says (I used to shoot with my grip like this.. should have never changed it) .. I went to a tad stiffer arrow, from 340's to 300's and reset my center shot to 13/16 factory spec ..... my roller guard is 1 notch right from dead center ... contact Elite for the deflection question .. I am now getting great bare shaft holes and FP's/BH's group same poi to 50 yds ... when bare shaft tuning FORM and GRIP IS EVERYTHING as long as set up and arrow is correct.. if your torquing, you'll never get it right ....

    I put in a call to them and the first time got disconnected.
    The second time I left a message (maybe with the right person) apparently they have a new phone system and are having issues with it.
    I tried 340 spine, 300, & 250

    let us know what they say .. hopefully response will be fairly quick ... last I read, they were running slow with all the virus restrictions that commie state of NY had... hopefully they are back up to normal ....

    I talked to Elite today.
    They said the proper limb order is

    Highest number Top right
    Next highest Top left
    Next highest bottom right
    And lowest bottom left.

    3 4
    1 2

    If after being put in that order I still have the nock left tear, to shim cams further left.

    keep us up to date on what happens ... I'd like to know what order the limbs were/are in BEFORE you moved them around, if you did ... good luck ..

    They were in the proper order.
    I had taken advice from other people and other forum searches and none of the limb swapping helped.

    Today I put the limbs back and started shimming. I managed to over correct. So now I just have to tinker with it.

    Just finished up today. Got the limb order correct, shimmed cam leftward and got super close with rest in center-shot, micro-tuned rest for the remainder.
    Bareshafts are within my capabilities of a bullethole. And just finished fletching.

    are you a Mech or fixed head guy ?? .. I use both, but prefer fixed ... are you going to bare shaft or go straight to BH/FP tuning ... I start my BH tuning tomorrow as long as the weather holds out.. my bareshaft /indoor tuning is good ....
