    Looks like I have a paper thin gap, nearly touching. You might have just a touch of cam lean?

    That little bit could be from the top cam. I'd bring it into a shop, or if you have the tools, check all your measurements (ata, etc.) and your top cam for lean.

    A couple of twists will fix it, I had the same problem with my Hoyt and fixed it myself this weekend. I am lucky to have a friend with a bow press and a hooter shooter.

    That said, I would take it to a shop. It never hurts to have a pro look at it. Especially with a new bow!

    I don't want to tell you to do the wrong thing. It took some tinkering to get mine right, and a bow press is essential. I still think I would take it to a shop. Ask them for pointers and then maybe you can do the maintenance yourself next time.
