Title: Bow Press
Post by: 92xj on September 27, 2017, 01:09:39 PM: What bow press are you running at the house?
Want something that doesn't twist the limbs any and money is always on the mind, but don't want a cheaply made product.
Won't be using it often and not working on other's bows, just my own, learning as I go.

I've heard lots of good things about these for home presses.

For those wondering. The listed press above does work.... BUT I was extremely nervous using it. Didn't like how it held onto tgen limbs. Got the new string and cables on the hoyt but returning the cable press and getting a EZ green
