I also use use an EZ Green but I wont hesitate to take my bow to my bow
shop (over an hours drive) if I run into a problem I can't resolve in a decent
ammout of time spent on it.
Don't want to sound like I'm preaching for the shops but there are times when
the knowladge and tools they have save tons of money and time spent trying
to do it on your own.
I understand when you live a long ways from a bow shop it's a big advantage
to be able to tune a bow at home but the tools and know how to do it right
are very costly and for a lot of people not worth it.
At the same time I feel if your gonna do your own tuning at least go with
quality made and or manufacture recommended tools for pressing or draw
boards etc. Do it myself made tools are ok for less critical work only.
Even having bought quality tools wont guarentte you will not over
press or over draw a bow by mistake or over tighten a limb axle screw and
trash a bearing.
I live a couple hours away from what I would call a good shop with knowledgeable people. There is a shop with a press closer but the skill set there doesn't benefit me and it's still a bit of a drive. Having a good press I see as nothing but a plus but do realize there are some things I'm going to want to let the pros handle.
Most of the time I'm just going to be adjusting timing, yoke tuning. Frankly the press isn't going to be something that get's used a pile but still worth it in the long run for me.
I didn't mean to scare anyone off from home tuning but did want to stress
how important it was to do your home work and give it serious thought before
diving into it.
Fulcrum archery will ship one to Canada for $90 USD, they are $389 USD for the basic press so $480 USD total $653 CAD.
