Can someone tell me centershot on this bow? I hear 11/16 and 13/16.

I was looking heavy at the pse evo nxt 33 but I definitely will be going to shoot the revolt x, I haven’t shot a bowtech in few years and have been very happy with my traverse but I really like the looks and specs of the X. Hopefully in the next few weeks I will be able to take a ride and go shoot a few arrows out of it

The short version: Mine came out at 3/4".
The long version:
Bowtech centershot instructions,
First, set deadlock cams to the middle of the limb bolts. To do this, loosen set screws for deadlock and then turn adjustment bolts until cams are as far right on the axle as they'll go. Then turn the adjustment bolts back the other way two full turns.
Nock an arrow to string and set on the rest. Adjust the rest until you get the same measurement from the front and back of the riser to the center of the arrow.
I'd also add, Bowtech's seem to like height set so that the bottom of the arrow is running through the center of the Berger holes.

Can I ask where you like the arrow running in relation to the berger holes?

I answered where in my first post, so will assume you meant "why" instead of "where"?
I like the bottom of the arrow through the center of the Berger for height, at a minimum I should add, because they seem to hold better if at that height or even a bit higher.
I have three Bowtechs and every one of them gives me better pin float with the arrow height set a bit higher in the Berger. My Solution is almost at the very top of the Berger.
Having the arrow height a bit higher also helps with the pin wanting to settle a bit low, which is something that I struggle with sometimes.

Ok, sorry, I did mean why. Also, is your arrow with the bottom running through the middle of the berger holes at 90 degrees to your string nock or is the nock on your string a little high or low?

I run them dead level to start, then adjust per what bare shaft tuning dictates. If timing is set so stops hit at the same time, I rarely have to make a rest adjustment for up/down, except maybe a very slight tweak that was probably because I didn't have it as level as I thought I did.

My whole tuning process:
I don't own a press (yet), so I take the bow to a shop and have them set axle to axle, brace height, ensure it is getting peak poundage with the limb bolts buried, set timing dead even, and put a peep in the string (left untied).
At home I put the bow in a vice and get the string showing level in both directions. Then I nock an arrow, put a level on it, and adjust rest

Dead level. If timing is spot on so stops hit at the same time, I rarely have to adjust elevation once I tune.
