Thanks for the great tip. Love watching all these types of videos you are doing. Thanks.

Great video, the string's bedded in on my first compound and the peep's twisted about 40 degrees to the right. I watched a bunch of videos about peep re-alignment and felt overwhelmed 'til I found yours. Thankfully I have access to a press at my club and a bunch of competent people to help me address the issue 😆
Thanks for the replies to all the questions below, I now understand exactly what I need to do... No swapping strands or re-tying serving required 😉

Your the best. I got my first binary cam bow and was concerned about messing up my timing, you cleared that up for me.

[gandalf]

Thanks for this. First video I found that answers this problem properly. Cheers

OMG dude you the best... I never ever knew you need to do both sides

[philsell]

Great stuff, simple, to the point and very informative.

Really great video mate, clear and concise.

[noobnaab]

Thanks so much...did the same with bowmaster and all ...and worked awsome for me!! thanks 😊🇵🇹🏹

[Salmosalarius]

Cool ! Thanks for sharing your knowledge ! What peep is that on your bow ? Really like the style and size !!!

[jaredhansen]

in the actual video, you twist the string to the right, away from you, toward the wall, but in the end of the video you desribe twisting it toward you, or toward the camera. so which was should you actually go? Imassuming twist the string in the direction you need it to go?

Hey, I’ve been shooting my bow quite a bit recently, and the string twisted. My peep sight is not how I want it to be, so I’m going to take it to the shop to fix it. Will anything they do to rotate the peep sight mess with my groupings on target? With deer season coming up I want to make sure I’m zeroed as possible and fixing the peep sight may delay that in my mind.

[ronroberts]

You twisted both ends of the string 1/2 turn. Wouldn't that turn the whole string (and the peep) 180 deg?

[beforethehunt]

Could u show me how u built the stand for your portable press?

[greekmaster]

did you add the half a twist the opposite way of what it should be even though it worked out? because I twisted the way it should go but it makes it even worse. In other words I twisted the opposite way. It’s crooked and made it worse.
so when you looking at your bow holding it up in a shooting position and your peep is twisted to the right do you add twists on the left?

[southstar]

Great tip! I need to try this. Btw what kind of peep sight is that?

[JP-eyow]

Hi there. I see you're using the bowmaster mobile press. I'm keen to get one to be able to do some things at homeand when I'm hunting however, some people say the hooks jump off the limbs and then also Bowtech has issues with guarantees using these I've seen. I have the Realm X. Would you recommend it? Is it definitely safe?

[wrxified]

Dude I’m totally confused. I understand what you did. But what confuses me is turning both ends exactly a half turn the same way. Isn’t that the equivalent to just pulling the string and flipping it over? How does it not just flip the peep 180 degrees so it is now facing you?

Am I over thinking this or missing something.

[zijie-he]

I am using a peep sight with four string grooves and 0 degree to the string, definitely not ideal, but solve the problem quite well. The downside is that the peep sight becomes an oval rather than a circle.

[chrisshanks]

Never untwist even if you have to go around the block and it's not going to effect your cam timing.

There're other types of elastic strings you can use in place of tubeless.
