Heres an interesting question to the forum which has puzzled me for years.

When setting up a bow and your setting up your plunger (button) or your launcher (compound) common advice is that you put the arrow on the string then the plunger is screwed through enough to push the arrow off centre by a milimeter or thereabouts, now the centre of the bow is effectively the centre of the limb bolts top and bottom. Now here comes the crunch the advice Ive always been given is NEVER to align your arrow with the long rod and reason for that is that the longrod is never set up in true straightness out the front of the bow and is effectlely offset, this means that the bushing inside the bow is set off to one side, can anyone explain to me why the manufacturers do this and to what end.
