HOW TO REPLACE A CENTER SERVING
Вставка
- Опубліковано 19 сер 2024
- Most often, the weakest link on a bow string is the center serving. If your center serving comes loose, or if you have any sort of slippage, your nocking point will move. If your nocking point moves, you can throw everything else out the window. In this video, John Dudley will teach you how to replace a center serving so you never find yourself in a dire situation with a bad center serving that you can't replace right before or during a hunt or archery event.

I've watched this every time I need to re serve. Invaluable. Thank you
Shot my first bow ever in 2020. Didn’t know the first thing about any of it. Now i do family, friends builds and tunes in my small personal garage shop. I owe it all to Dudley. Best teacher on UA-cam!!
You inspire me. Started June 2024 on the journey to that same level. Always been mechanically inclined and good at knots
I know “youtubers” have some monetary gain from having channels. But, to think that I can lie here in my bed at 10:00pm and learn to do this for free, makes me feel incredibly grateful for this channel and the 50 or so videos of yours I’ve watched so far. Many thanks!
I bought a new string about two months ago and the serving started to separate under the area of the d-loop knot about a week ago. I never would have thought about trying something like this but, like many of his videos, John has a way of making things seem a lot easier than you would think and this is a great example. It took me three stops and restarts, mainly because I am perfectionist, but I ended up with a nicely served center serving. I mean it's not something I would recommend for a novice, but if you are comfortable tying in peeps and d-loops you can probably handle this no problem
I got into target archery in the late 90s and a big part of the enjoyment for me was learning how to work on my own bow and arrows and tuning them to work well together. I learned most of it either through pros and other knowledgeable folks at my archery club or through trial and error. When YT took off it opened up a whole new world and John Dudley has proven to be one the best content creators out there. I have re-learned how to do so many things I thought I knew by watching his videos. There are others good ones out there to be sure, but none are better than Dudley IMO.
Thank you for this video! Even a year after its posting, I watched this over and over again the past couple of weeks to teach myself how to center serve my bow in a pinch! The last serving, which was done by a bow shop..., lasted about 100 shots before starting to separate under the D-Loop! Center serving video, soft nocks video, and D-Loop video are all saved for the next time I need to replace it all!!! Thanks, Nock On for the parts and videos!!!!
You are accomplishing what you set out to do, teach. Serving is now a lot easier than before, thanks.
I’m just getting into archery. Literally 2 days in. And I’ve learned so much from your vids! 🤙🏽
Amazing tutorial! Two weeks ago i did not even know there was such a thing called center Serving. I have played this clip over and over again and nailed it on the first attempt! Perhaps not as perfect as yours but at least with that sheen. Thank you ever so much!
Man this is the best tutorial ever. Thank you for this video. ❤
Just replaced my first center serving with this video. Thank you so much!
EXCELLENT instruction! Thank you for such great detail.
Just bought the tool and materials. Tried using my local shop and no luck on a good D-Loop. Crossing my fingers with you video I’ll be able to tune my Mathews chill R bow. Thanks will send message on how it went.
best video on replacing center serving you make it very simple great instructor thank you.
Glad you liked it!
Hey John, great tutorial and very well explained. When it comes to tension on the jig, have you ever measured with a bow scale what you would consider perfect tension for the spool. I followed your instructions and think I got it just about right. I left the adjusted as is when I was done and measured 7.7lbs on the scale.
Great video. You are a really great instructor.
Best Videoon how to do this
great video just ordered the jig and serving thx
Thank you very much. Unfortunately I'm from New York. Thats a different story. My brother Danny had hid own shop for years. Called Danbow Archery. Well he retired so i bought one of his bow presses ,so now do my own work and wife and sons bows also. I knew alot from helping him out over the years. But he was the master and he did all the servings and technical stuff. Now im learning. God bless you and yours. Thank you for all your knowledge.
You’re the man
I wish I could do this project as easily as he makes it look!
Please someone, tell me the best serving tool to buy….. I’ve bought two over the years and don’t like either on!
He sells the serving tool on his website
I have beiter serving tool and never regreat buying it
Dud do you always complete the centre serving with the tail end underneath all the rotations laid across the string ?
Great video thank you
Would you recommend waxing the string before putting on the serving?
How many strands is the bow string? You're using .21 serving, I've been building strings using 20 strands of BCY454 and I have to use a .16 serving so the nock fits right.
Noob question. My string seems to be too thin to allow arrow to "snap on". Do I just need an additional layer of serving?
There are a few things you can do. One is to change to a nock with a smaller throat. Different brands/models of nock are slightly different. Another is to use a larger diameter serving material. Serving material is available in a variety of diameters for this very reason.
Tihis! ☝️
Never been this early for anything in my life...
(let's make issues out of thin air)... "then this video is for you."
I can't watch this, ask the person to hold the camera steady next time. Jeeez
