Default Bowtech Binary Cam Sync

Does anyone know of, or have any good resources for getting Binary Cams in sync? I am trying to educated myself on the subject.

Sorry, I don't, but I wouldn't mind knowing a little about it either. I had a terrible time getting my General tuned and as it turns out, the cams were out of sync. In fact, now that it is tune, the top cam is not in the same postion in relation to the limb as the bottom is. Kind of bugs me because I always thought that they needed to be positioned the same. Shoots good, but I would still like to know.

The only way to really check the timing of a twin cam/binary cam bow is to use a draw board. These are realtively simple to make/use. The draw board will allow you to check the timing at full draw. Once at full draw can look at the cams to see if they are in time(most have some kind of marking). If out of time, one cam will be different than the other, meaning one is rotating either faster/slower that the other one. To sync them up, you will either have to add a twist to the cam cable(to make the cam rotate faster or take a twist out to slow the cam down. Any good bow shop will have a draw board. If not, make one. Good luck! If a twin is out of time, you will NEVER get it to shoot correctly.
