That's a true 2 cam bow. Can't see me ever going back there.

I don't get the bow snobs.

why's that?

I can't see me ever shooting another solo cam. I'm not being snobbish, I just didn't shoot well with my one and only solo cam bow. If I'm gonna drop what equates to a house note on a bow and setup I'd like to feel confident that I can hit with it everytime not just 4 outta 5 times.

What do you mean by "don't have a good press?" Can your press allow you to take the string & cable off the cam and/or idler?
I despise bow shops and think that they do half assed work, which is why I invested in an EZ press. I sort of have my own bow shop at my house.
I'm a Hoyt guy and prefer the draw cycle and let down of the cam and a half. I too am like you in that I know how to tune Hoyt's really well and would prefer to stick with what I know.
Oh, if you don't have a draw board, I'd suggest making one. You can make one for around $50 and it makes tuning, syncing, and setting up a drop away rest a fricking breeze and more importantly EXACT.

I've never shot a bow, but Matthews bows are hideous.

I don't really know, but those just look strange and cheap to me.

Thats the kind of bow you use when your running mate despises the 2nd amendment.

Understand completely. Not sure if you are a member of archery talk, but their classifieds is a good way to get archery equipment at a good price.
I bought my EZ Press green from a guy on there that had both sets of fingers (curved and straight) and the upgraded hand crank for $325 shipped. If I bought all of that new, it would run a little over $500.
Most guys aren't willing to spend that much on a press, but to be self sufficient and do all of your own work is well worth it. As stated above, most bow shops do half assed work. I grew tired of taking my stuff to them in the past, then getting home and figuring out how the effed up then learning how to do it the correct way. I fletch my own arrows also...which is another thing bow shops will gouge you on.
