First install the peep in the string using the side grooves. Then start serving the same way you would do your center serving. Approximately 1 and 1/4 inch above the peep, continue for 1/4 inch.

Wrap the serving around one side of the bow string three or four times. When you get to the peep start wrapping the serving around the serving center groove of the peep.

Wrap the serving atound the groove three or four times.

Stop wrapping on the opposite side from which you started. Take the serving and go around the string once above the peep. Pull the serving tight and then wrap the serving around the other side of the bow string three or four times. At about 1 inch below the peep finish by back serving in the same way you would finish your center serving.

You now have a correctly tied in peep.
This is a method of tying in your peep sight. This method will work for any type of peep. Only difference is on some style of peeps you will have to tie in one section above and one section of serving below. The serving will not wrap around the peep.

Paper Tuning is arguably, the best method to fine tune the bow and arrow. You stand approximately 4 to 6 feet away from a sheet of paper held in a frame with a backstop behind the paper rack.

Most people find the best performance coincides with a tear that the fletching hitting 1/4" to 3/4" higher than the point between 11 and 1 o'clock.

Before starting to paper tune, it is important that the archer verify that the correct arrow shaft is being used. Using an arrow shaft that is too stiff or too weak may prevent paper tuning from being fully effective.

It is wise to start with the nocking point set at 1/16" above center. It is also important that the arrow rest is properly set to insure that the fletching does not make contact.

The following instructions are for right handed shooters. Left handers should use reverse of the instructions. Example: for tear right use solution for a tear left. For a tear left use the instruction for a tear right.



Tear Left: (Often indicates a weak spined arrow)
1. Decrease draw weight. Back out both limb bolts a quarter turn at a time. Make certain to adjust both limbs equally to avoid changing the tiller and nock point adjustment. Also make certain to avoid backing the limb bolts out to far to avoid injury to the archer and damage to the bow.

2. Decrease point weight. A lighter point will have some effect on increasing shaft stiffness. Too light of a point however, may result in unstable arrow flight.

3. If steps 1 and 2 don't reduce the length of the tear to your satisfaction, you may need to change to a stiffer shaft. Some small tears can sometimes be improved by moving the arrowrest away from the riser, or by increasing the tension on the cushion plunger, if one is used.



Tear Right: (Often indicates an arrow that is too stiff)
1. Increase draw weight. Tighten both limbs bolts a quarter turn at a time. Make certain to adjust both limbs equally to avoid changing the tiller and nock point adjustment.

2. Increase point weight. A heavier point will have some effect on decreasing shaft stiffness. Arrow speed may be reduced.

3. If steps 1 and 2 don't reduce the length of the tear to your satisfaction, you may need to change to a weaker shaft. Small tears can sometimes be improved by moving the arrowrest toward the riser, or by reducing the tension on the cushion plunger, if one is used.



To correct a high tear:
1. Move the nocking point down in small increments.

2. If using a launcher or shoot-thru type arrowrest, move the arrow support arm up. Increasing spring tension can also be helpful.

3. Check for fletching interference and adjust rest position as needed.



To correct a low tear
1. Move the nocking point up in small increments.

2. If using a launcher or shoot-thru type arrowrest, move the arrow suppoort arm down. Reduced spring tension can also be helpful for even finer adjustments.
