This is what hear: You can turn the draw weight (limb tension) adjustment no more than 5 full turns out from full tightness....is this right???

Anyone? I went 5 full on my 99 Hoyt Aspen so my brother could shoot it (he jacked up his neck & shoulder) - yes that last turn I was sweating it and shielding my face...

It's a Hoyt Aspen Carbonlite 60-70 lbs, 1999 model... No owner's manual.

According to the owners manual on my hoyt vtec it is no more than 5 full turns out and same on my kids diamond, so i would think you are safe. You can also contact a proshop or hoyt themselves. They are pretty easy to get a hold of on their website.
