    Ok for those PSE bow techs does my madness xs 2012 have limb pocket locks or not? I'm having toruble telling if I need to lossen the screws on the side of the limbs to make draw weight changes or not on this bow? Some say yes others say NO? Or are these screws on the XS there to hold the limb pockets in place? Manual very vague thanks for any insight!

    draw weiGht adjustMents
    PSE has two types of pocket systems: hard stop pockets and vibration damper pockets.
    Hard stop limb pockets have a “bottomed” position to determine peak weight. This position is where the limb, pocket and riser contact one another and cannot be adjusted further.
    Vibration damper pockets have rubber in between the limb and pocket and the riser. The “bottomed” limb position is nOt when the limbs contact the riser. The bottomed position for vibration damper pockets is where the bottom surface of the limb is approximately .20” (3/16” or 5 mm) away from the riser. The limb bolt may be adjusted to slightly increase the draw weight, but the gap between the limb and riser must never be less than 0.15” (4 mm).
    IMPORTANT: Do not “bottom” the limbs against the riser on a bow equipped with vibration damper pockets!

    I copied this from the PSE website.
