Gee thanks Art just throw me in the deep end to sink or swim
.
Actually that is the one thing I was going to add to "T" mans post.
I know a lot of guys have not even heard of creep tuning.
What it basicly is, isshooting from the front of the valley on a dual cam or the Binary cam not so good on a cam & 1/2 or single cam cause they dont have the harness to make the adjustments.
Instestead of getting into a whole lot od detail in "T" mans thread I will write it up and make another post.
Then we can argue to our hearts content[8D]
Apart from that good post "T" man
Now we need to get you, Rick and Aussie to get into an in-depth discussion on creep tuning.

I must say that the ability to creep tune is IMHO the single best reason to shoot a dual cam bow. As long as I have the right twist rate in the cables to get the fine adjustment need for a perfect creep tune..........I can make those high/lows from bad shots go away almost entirely.
I will save the rest of my thoughts on this for Russel's thread when it pops up but guarantee this will be a great thread when it appears.

Creep tuning
With the solid walls that most cam systems have, it really isn't anywhere near as much of a necessity but I have done it to my cam 1/2 and I made some minor adjustments but not much.
I do like the ability to do it to a cam 1/2.I usually check mine with a creep tune but usually don't have to make any adjustments.
Thanks for the bump.I have been adding the link to several threads it seems lately.

I am shooting a Bowtech Alligience, trophy taker rest, shooting app. one year, I noticed scratch marks on the left side of the arrow rest, as if the fletches scratched the fall-away rest, how do I set the rest to solve this problem? Would this have an influence on my accuracy, when shooting the bow?

It could be centershot being out as well as contact issues.If the centershot is out,the arrow could be rubbing harder on one side of the rest than the other causing the marks.
It could also be the rest falling too late resulting in fletching contact as well.You would need to lengthen the rope tied to the down cable so the rest will fall sooner or you might be able to raise the rope as well.
It COULD be the rest bouncing back up and making contact.
You can put some lipstick or foot powder on the rest and shoot an arrow through the bow to see if it shows up on the fletching.That will tell you if you have contact.
AND YES,any of these things will cause some accuracy problems,mainly in forgiveness.
