What year was the Hoyt Carbon Element?
2011
Hoyt’s 2011 Carbon Element is a fun bow to shoot, which to me is more important than many other factors that go into purchasing a bow. The draw is smooth, shock and vibration levels are minimal, handling is easy thanks to the low mass weight and the balance at full draw is absolutely rock solid.
How do I adjust my draw weight?
To adjust the draw weight, we have to unload or load more stress (flex) on the limbs; we do that by tightening or loosening the limb bolts. To raise draw weight to maximum poundage, tighten the limb bolts (clockwise) until both limbs are tight against the riser.
Does changing draw weight affect timing?
Registered. Dropping draw weight WILL NOT change cam timing. Only thing it will change is draw length and draw weight. Turning a limb bolt has nothing to do with cam rotation.
