How to Adjust a Hoyt Bow Weight

The Hoyt Bow is a compound bow used in archery. The design differs from many other brands of archery bows because it decreases the low-frequency vibrations commonly present after an arrow has been shot. Also, the bow contains several modifiable parts to make use easier and better for fitness. For example, the user can adjust the weight on the box to make it easier to use or to improve bicep and tricep strength while drawing.

Instructions

    • 1

      Unstring the bow before making any adjustments. This ensures that the string will not snap and cause potential injury.

    • 2

      Turn the weight adjustment bolt to increase or decrease weight. To increase, turn clockwise; to decrease, turn counterclockwise. The top and bottom adjustment bolts should be turned equally.
