Nice!
You may well hve dodged the bullet on that one It all depends if the cam depends on the screws to hold its position or if you have some kind of detent that the cam drops intoand lock up ,leaving the screws to prevent the cam from coming out of the detent you should be OK. If the screws hold the cam in place then look over the cam position carefully.Hmmm; just discovered that a cam bolt is missing. There are two per cam. That probably isn’t helping much. And I’m certain one wouldn’t have fallen out? Because I’ve never adjusted the DL (it was set for me when I bought it) I’ve never looked at them before!
Getting one sorted ASAP.
Yes and it’s British in Origin...I lost track of which bow you have. Is it one from a shop that sounds like King Arthur's magician?
I think you are correct. I would say that a recurve bow and no sights could be shot as fast as a longbow. I can't see why not as far as the bows are concerned. However the recurve archer who shoots as fast as the typical longbow archer, will be rushing for no reason and losing pointsI think the idea to match the speed of execution for the three type of bows is not possible - unless you shoot an Oneida instead normal compound. Each type of bow comes with a rhythm and tempo inside the shot sequence - something nobody talks about. There are things that can be altered inside a shot sequence to make it work "almost" as quick, but will be just "close but not cigar".
Interesting. What would you say are the element in a shot that slow the shot process down? I was watching the Korean women and they are not slow. I think you can disregard compound as for this discipline it's usually a case of waiting of the earth to come into alignment with the scope and half ton of stab weights
Even if the question is not for me, I will say that aiming method is the one that dictates the speed. I can shoot fast with both longbow and recurve if I know from the beginning where the arrow should be in relation with the target in peripheral vision at a specific distance with a very decent degree of accuracy. The moment I change the aiming method from lets say "split vision" with longbow to "pic a point" with recurve my mindset is different and this will alter the speed of execution. Put a sight on the recurve and your speed will slow down even more because the sight is fighting against your natural tendency of pointing the finger to the target which is the base an archer is building on while he is learning to aim the arrow.What would you say are the element in a shot that slow the shot process down?
We’ve just bought a decent new air rifle with scope and it’s interesting comparing a sighted compound bow to a gun.Even if the question is not for me, I will say that aiming method is the one that dictates the speed.

This internal fight is the reason for TP in the sighted archery in my opinion. The good Coach is always telling you to look at the target and let the sight float (the sight becomes your new pointing finger) while the proximity of it makes you focus on the sight itself naturally. If you fail to understand this, you are on your way on the TP path.
