    Speed it up so it drops a bit faster.

    Set the cord about mid grip or a little lower... A good test is that if you draw it without being in the set position it should only be coming up in the last inch of draw.

    Your having an installation issue rather then a problem with the rest.

    The cd that comes with it shows you how to get the timing just right. I had the same problem. I needed to get the drop cord tighter.

    I lost the dvd that came with mine, does anyone know of any videos that are good for setting it up? If I go cock vane up the right vane always hits my buss cables so I have to rotate the cock vane clockwise looking from the nock end to get clearance but then the lowest vane always catches on the rest itself. haven't quite figured out how to tune this thing out so it drops fast enough for me. any tips?

    Along with what they ^^^ said, is it something that can be resolved by simply adjusting your nock a little at a time?

    I had the same problem. I didnt notice it until paper tuning. I ended up setting my cock vane horizontal away from the riser (im a lefty so it will be to my right). Fixed the issue.

    Threw on the TL1 launcher that comes with the rest today to see if it would help eliminate the fletching contact I was having and it worked wonders. Finally have this thing shooting like a champ with 4" groups at 60 yards. I still have to rotate my nock so I don't hit the buss cables but once I got a good nock position it is shooting great.
