or;

put masking tape over the arrow shelf (where the arrow is likely to touch the bow) and lip stick on the tip of the fletchings.

No particular colour, buy my helix likes red lippy

A thin layer of plasticine (or similar) on the riser is supposed to show up clearance problems.

clearance

Plasticine works, not only tells you if you have a clearance problem but tells you where and what.

"Daktari" [TV-Series 1966-1969]

Directed by
Paul Landres
Otto Lang

Writing credits
Robert Lees (writer)

Daktari (the Swahili word for 'doctor') featured an American animal doctor and his daughter living on an African game reserve called Wameru (although the series was filmed in a Los Angeles safari park).
Dr. Marsh Tracy was the vet who ran an animal study centre with his daughter Paula, an American named Dane and an African native named Mike. The other regular character was Hedley, British District Officer and Game Warden, who called on Marsh for help in dealing with animals and poachers.

The Tracy's had two pets. A cross-eyed lion named Clarence (who had previously starred in a movie called, aptly enough, Clarence the Cross-eyed Lion) and a chimpanzee named Judy.

New regular additions to the cast came in 1968. Bart Jason was a former ranger and hunter who had become a guide for picture-taking safaris, and Jenny Jones, a 7-year-old orphan who became part of the Tracy family (played by Erin Moran - Joanie of Happy Days).

TRIVIA NOTE
Judy the chimp was simultaneously starring on Lost in Space as Debbie. Allegedly, the studio had the chimp's teeth removed after she attacked the cast once too often.

I hope you got that from a search, Tony, I'd hate to think you were a Daktari geek.
