Hell yea! Glad you don’t have these issues. It’s a great bow!

Mine has been super easy to tune. I go back and forth between target arrows, hunting, and long range arrows, which means that I shoot a lot of paper. Zero set the cams and rest, and the tune is SUPER EASY and fast. If you’re struggling with left & right tears then the issue is your grip.

I set my omnia at 15/16" from the riser and dead level thru the berger button and it shot bullet holes the first shot. I feel you pain I spent a bunch of time tuning my hoyt carbon defiant turbo and just spent 20+hrs tuning a hoyt rx4. The rx4 pissed me so much I almost sold it, I had to play with running the cams hot, adjusting the knocking point, and yoke tuning. I can assure you its not my form. I also tuned my mathew's traverse rather quickly. As my grip changed for the better I just re-paper tuned my omnia and I micro adjusted my hamskea trinity rest and its bullet hole's all day. I get slight cable rub on the bottom cam but after 500 shots you cannot tell where the cam hits the cable. I will eventually break it down and check the limbs but I absolutely love the omnia and after messing with hoyt bows for days I will gladly spend an hour looking into my omnia.

Just a heads up for everyone. The manual for this bow recommends 7/8 for center shot, not 13/16. That is throwing a lot of people off. The bow looks great though brother! I love mine.

Was going to look at one this season when I bought my new bow and it shot fine. I had kind of been lured in by its ability to adjust without the bow press and all the amazing reviews. However, while I was talking to the owner he said their customer service was awful. While we were having the conversation another customer walks out of the shop and he leaves. The owner says, that guy has been waiting 3 weeks for Elite to send a replacement part on a warranty on an Omnia he just bought in February and I can’t get a call back from the Elite rep. That was all I needed. Out of contention. We all tend to get caught up in New Bow hype but we also forget that brand new features also means untested technology. Better to let a system get kinks worked out over a few seasons in new tech IMO.. Also, may have just been the pink strings

Bought an Enkore couple of years ago and had a bad left tear( I’m a lefty). Tried everything I can possibly fix myself, didn’t work. Sent it back to the dealer, and they teamed up with an Elite tech to fix my problem. They even changed limb deflection like you did. They finally sent me the bow telling me “it’s better but still not perfect… this is the best we can do”! Did not offer me to exchange it… I know it was probably a lemon but no more Elites for me even if I know they are great bows😂

Thanks for making this video!! I couldn't get the right tune out of mine. Limb swap, shimming, changing center shot to 7/8, nothing but right tears. Took it back to my Archery shop and we spent 5 hours trying to get the right tear out with NO luck.! Finally the archery shop called Elite and we did a warranty return. I'm supposed to have the bow back next week, so we'll see if they did anything to it.

First person to hit on the problem, grip torque. The best thing I can tell someone about diagnosing tuning issues is to have someone take pictures from behind you when you are at full draw and see if the string is coming off the cam in a straight line. If you are imparting torque the string will be coming off at an angle, usually away from your bow hand. Elite has always been sensitive to grip torque and I have helped dozens of people solve their tuning problems without ever touching the bow. Hope this helps someone

@jeff it's all how the bow sits in your grip. There's a really good video somewhere on here that a guy explains the best way to set your hand on one of those old elite grips and it's probably one of the best grip videos I've seen. I'm not disputing you know how your grip feels or that you know what you need to do but I've seen so many times people tweak and move stuff all around on these elites and it usually ends up being a grip fix. If you have it shooting good and it walk back and broadhead tunes then consider it good and enjoy shooting it. If after a week or two you start seeing arrow flight concerns I would set everything to factory centershot and go back to the grip. Hope it works out for you

I was able to tune my Omnia relatively easy but my cable was rubbing bottom cam. I shimmed my cam .020 towards the cable it was rubbing on and that fixed the rubbing. It tuned in 3 shots after that. It should have very little cam lean at rest and full draw. I have heard of them getting the limb deflection messed up on some of these Omnia bows. That sucks, sorry you had to go through so much frustration. It is a great shooting bow when it's right.

I heard they had problems tuning. Got mine a month ago. Eyeballed rest. It was at 15/16 and perfect bullet whole first shot

I just got a Kairos and didn't feel right about the set being cranked all the way for a right tear from the shop. Got the tuning manual from Elite and they say 7/8 to center of arrow, mine was at 13/16. I set that, moved the SET back to center, moved the ltr a half line right and on the end had a quarter turn on SET for right tear and it's good. On the ltr remove the plastic cable retainer and take cables out of rollers, move ltr and tighten, cables back in and install plastic retainer.

I had one of the first LH Omnia's and tuning was a literal PITFA!! Set my Epsilon to dead center (13/16") and I was getting a bad left tear. I tried cleaning it up with the SET but what people don't realize is if you go too far with the SET one direction or the other it's the same as moving your rest an insane amount one direction or the other. If you don't believe that, nock an arrow and stand over the bow, looking straight down over the top cam, line up the arrow with the limb bolts and look which or even how far the arrow is point one direction or the other. Gaining 1/4-1/2 turn on the SET is a lot and many don't know that. I even saw on AT where a guy moved his SET so far that he ran out of windage on his sight...so that gives you some idea of how far the arrow is pointing at brace! You are too good of a tuner, you know what you are doing, your grip is not an issue...it for SURE was the bow. I never did move my LTR out from center....,I guess I should have because that may have helped the other thing I hated and could not get over....the cables in my sight picture at full draw. I REALLY liked the bow. I loved the speed I got at my specs, I loved that I could should at 26.75" draw length vs 26.5" which was too short or 27" which was too long. GLAD you found that it was a limb, maybe they could send you another set of limbs for the top or at least one close to that deflection. But I bet you are too scared to break it down again....LOL!!🤣 Great video as always Jeff....enjoy your vids a LOT!!

Is it right?, no absolutely not, would I choose another speed bow for 2023?, no. The omnia draw, valley, letoff, and shot is top notch and the speed rating is actual length unlike mathew's that run 3/8" long and hoyt that run 1/2" long. The omnia will chuck hunting arrows at phenomenal speeds.

Mate of mine had dramas with a persistent tear with SET out of the box and 7/8 centre shot. . In the end he ignored the SET centre marks on the stickers and a found the actual midpoints by moving them each way to their end stops and splitting the difference on the adjuster screws. Centre shot was then set ignoring any measurement and instead setting an arrow in the rest dead parallel to a reference one held against the riser ie. square to the riser for that string position. Cable guard set for minimum fletching clearance. Then got bullet holes and only had to use a tiny bit of SET for fixed blade broadhead tuning.

My Omnia was dialed in with 4 shots,sucks that you had so much trouble with yours!

damn bro i tuned one of them omnias in 5 min

That pink is tight.. My favorite flavor

Total opposite of my experience with the Omnia. Got bullet hole in 3 shots. And it's so forgiving it bullet holes multiple models and diameter arrows without any adjustments.

Also the SET seems unstable. If i unlock and move the SET screws, even returning them to the same spot, it throws the bow way out of tune. There are SO MANY people complaining about tuning issues, but if i call Elite, they've never heard of it. Even if it's not my first time calling about it...

Your wife has great taste, I love the pink strings. Going to rock those next season.

Ised both the SET and the cable slide to tune the bow . The cable slide you need to bow press to take the tension of the cable but you can lean the cames to get a right or left tear out and used the SET. So instead of using a 1/2 use a 1/4 turn on set and then move the roller garde left or right See if that helps . SET can have the cams lean to much so they rub the bus cables

Just started following you, great video by the way. Like you I’m no master bow tuner, but have been playing with bows for close to 20yrs and consider myself a decent Archer. I have 2 Prime’s, 1 Mathews, 1 PSE and just bought an Elite Basin for my Daughter. Although the Basin does not have the S.E.T technology, or any of the other bells and whistles, like the higher end Elites , I have ran into some tuning issues myself. So any info on tuning I can find is great. I would have to disagree with some of the comments about checking your grip, From what you’ve described you were obviously getting the same tear over and over. If your grip was inconsistent it would have shown in the paper. By Having 1 limb with a higher deflection than the rest would definitely cause you to go down the rabbit hole of tuning. If your equipment is compromised, no amount of checking or changing your grip will help. Anyway, thought the video was great .👍

Usually the shooter...grip, anticipation of the shot. This bow easily can get rid of left and right tears.

Noob here. Only been shooting a few months. Fought a terrible tear with the set tech. Found the hamskea was staying up too late. Adjusted and set the set tech back to stock. Shoots great. Mines left handed, so maybe the limbs were in the right spot.😅 I've found consistent proper form is critical. Set the ltr about 1/8th to clear the fletching. Had string rub at first. Flattening the serving somewhat. A couple hundred shots later, hasn't gotten any worse. Hope this helps somebody.

Tuning is super simple. I've also swapped modules in both bows and also have a second set of limbs for the Omnia. The same. Zero issues tuning and swaping these compared to the nightmare in tuning or modifying other compound bows that I've had. That said as well, I watch Steven Hand from Archery Supply in Australia who loves these and shoots these himself, very honest reviews, and he finds all of these that he sells to be the simplest for tuning of all the bows he's sold in his lifetime.

@@jeffcordero_ Thanks Jeff. I maxed out the S.E.T. Counterclockwise for the tear. Shooting bullets holes now. I think I want to change the shims so I still have some adjustment in that direction. I called Elite last Friday and still waiting for a response. Thanks for the content.

It could maybe be the early production ones. I dont know for sure, because i havent bought one, but this might throw me off from buying it. Ss34 it is.

It was an early production bow. I got ahold on Elite and we ran the serial numbers

You going to build a verdict for 3D as well?

Woof… depends. If it’s anything like this Omnia?! Maybe not. But we will see how this thing shoot and maybe a Verdict will become my indoor bow for the 2024 season

How do you measure deflection rates?

@laramiejordan4494

Жыл бұрын

You dont...every bow company measures it differently...back when I built limbs we had a machine to put the limb in and attach a cable then pulled the limb and there was a digital readout....however that number didn't really correspond to anything at all...its not lbs or any kinda weight measurement...its kinda like we knew that the read out said 325 we knew that would make a 70lb bow...this was a major bow manufacture...I'm not a liberty to say which one

Laramie is right, mine are written on the front of the limb. You can’t see them unless you remove them from the limb pockets.

It's the pink strings 😂

Mine shot a bullet hole right out of the box with slight rest movements.

Take that little plastic keeper off the cable rod and the cables will come off the rollers then you can move the rod

Make sure your cams are not getting cable contact at full draw. Elite has had a serious problem shipping these bows with the weak limbs on the wrong side. The limbs are all different deflections, and they have been shipping them backwards…so that MAY be your problem, also this will cause cam/cable contact at full draw as well.

I commented before I watched much into the vid….and yes, they probably have the limb deflections backwards..which is ridiculous from a company like Elite. Loved this bow…but the issues a lot of people are having, including 2 of my friends…I’ll stick with Mathew’s and Hoyt…haven’t had any issues from any of my bows, and I have a couple from each.

That was 100% my problem. Once I swapped limbs the rubbing went away and I could finally adjust the bow without excessive cam lean.

i am having the same issue with my enkore

Let me say that I've never had any problems tuning a bow through paper ever I've shot every high end brand out there decided to buy my first elite this year omnia mine had gawd awful cam lean couldn't get it to clean a tear no matter what had them shim the cams ect still cams rubbed the cables like crazy wanted to love the bow but sold it won't own another elite again just because of my experience this was at 29 inch draw in fact the 5 other omnias at the shop had the same exact issue maybe it was first batch issue

@jeffcordero_

Жыл бұрын

I agree, I think it's a great bow but maybe a bad batch of them came out at some point and we drew the short straw

Jeff I ordered one of these because of your success in tuning. Question for you, since you have shot the Hoyt VTM 34 how do these two compare in draw cycle?

@jeffcordero_

Жыл бұрын

Depends. If you lower your letoff adjustment on the Omnia to 80% ish the draw cycles and transitions into the backwall feel similar. The Omnia might just be a tick stiffer overall

“ was it the bow?” Or is it you? ( lol). A friend of mine had a PSE SUPRA that was a nightmare. Finally, after literally 5 hours it was tuned. Only bow I’ve ever seen that bad.

Same thing for me. I had a left tear that I couldn't get out. When I was all said and done, I had to switch around both set of limbs and shim spacers. Got it tuned now and it shoots great. Now i just need to figure out if i can switch the limb stop brackets because they are on the wrong side with the limb flip flop..

The one thing I didn't hear in your video is that you didn't move the arrow rest. I'm by no means,an expert but the first thing we used to do back in the 80s to tune until they started putting more adjustments into cams was to move the arrow rest. Alot of people are set on the 13/16th and won't move it thinking that's where it HAS to be.

@jeffcordero_

Жыл бұрын

I did move the rest very slightly. I'm no expert either, but I have always found the best success tuning the bow and using the arrow rest to clean up broadhead flight. That's always worked well for me.

LOVED your reply...I have a Mathews that WILL NOT shoot arrows straight with factory settings for the rest....moved mine nearly 1/4 inch TOWARDS the riser....all wrong? nope it now shoots bullets .wish I had read your reply months ago!!..

Why did you set the rest at 13/16? Elite recomends 7/8 as a starting point. a simple rest adjustment probably would have helped

@jeffcordero_

I didn't know that until after, 13/16 is industry standard.

I’ve shot a couple different Omnias and they all rubbed on the cable, I’m sure it could be tuned out but that combined with the hump at the end of the draw cycle made me buy another brand. There is a lot to like about the Omnia and I’d be interested to hear how yours does long term.

The dump isn’t as bad if you go to 80% let off. But the rubbing was and issue that I needed to solve

@tsi-rocket4144

Жыл бұрын

the dump into the valley is extreme compared to hoyt or pse but its on par with mathew's. I added felt to the draw stops initially but ended up switching to the limb stops. I will take the dump into an excellent valley and letoff over any other speed bow for 23 but that's personal preference of course. I shot the pse omen, hoyt twin turbo, omnia, and bowtech sr350 and found the omnia to have the best draw, valley, and letoff IMO.

Maybe they mistakenly read 119 as 114

I shoot target. None of my bows shoot a bullet hole. If I tune for a bullet hole, they wont put 2 arrows near each other. Too many people place too much stake on 'the bullet hole'

@jeffcordero_

I don't disagree and I can admit that sometimes I get too focused on the bullet hole. Knowing that once I attach the broadheads I'll be moving the rest anyways

Should have bought a Bowtech.

Maybe try the smooth mods

Why would you not drop arrow spine. That’s what I’d do first if getting a significant right tear. Right tear=too stiff

I thought about it, but I did try adding a bunch of point weight at one point which will weaken the arrow spine and that didn't help, like 200gn of extra point weight. didnt help.
