let off on switchback

Do you have to change cams on a switchback to adjust let off. I think its factory set to 80% and I'd like to reduce down to 65% to match my other bow. Does this mean finding someone who stocks my drawlength cams @ 65% or can I adjust it another way..... i.e stops etc

You could bodge the letoff by (I think) shortening the cable. However, this would also mess with draw weight and draw length. The quicker way would be to buy a new cam from Bowsports (£60)

You need a new cam. Try Bowsports, he stocks them.

Did a quick Google. United Kingdom Bench Rest Associtation. basicly super accurate rifle shooting. From what I understand the rifle is rested on a bench (go figure?) and you just have to aim and pull the trigger.

If you are going to put it that way Surely archery is Just Aiming and letting go of the string .

No I am not an UKBRA shooter although I was quite interested when I thought it might have something to do with cup sizing .

Now I know where i've been going wrong... I've not been resting my bowarm on a bench....I knew it had to be easier than lifting all that weight up and trying to hold it steady in the wind
