Tethrd Phantom

Do any of you guys question the amsteel prussic on an amsteel bridge? I don't have much experience with amsteel, but I've noticed that it's pretty slick stuff. Maybe the prussic gets tight enough where it wouldn't move on you accidentally? Maybe amsteel is so slick that there is more of a potential to accidentally get that prussic to move on ya?

I tried a prussic on my bridge with a Beal jammy and oplux. The adjustability is awesome but I also had both ends of the bridge tied into the bridge loops instead of a stopper knot like the phantom bridge. Maybe it's not necessary, but it feels safer that way.

I will certainly be ordering one. I like the adjustments on the bridge loops. Really curious.... the utilibridge is neat also... and I see the microfit adjusters are gone... looks pretty sweet.

My Aero Hunter Kestrel Flex came with a predator bridge and has a prussik from the factory

Works great with predator but amsteel is slick

This is not a new idea

I agree think some nice features and if they added a little cupping like I’ve read I think will be great. I also like the adjustments on. Ridge I found incremental movements can drastically change saddle feel.
 
That amsteel prussik works great. No issues with it.

Yes, its an accubow and it f$&*@ng SUCKS! don't waste your money or ask for it for christmas. The only thing I use it for is the surprise release and I set it to 70lbs and hold it for strength, but the shot is loud af like hitting a pvc pipe on the floor and pieces fly off everywhere.

That's a drag, it would be kinda nice to be able to keep practicing my form in these cold winter months without having to go outside
 
I've owned a Kestrel, a Mantis, and a DIY before getting time in the Phantom. For me the Phantom is the most comfortable of all those. It's geometry just doesn't lend to discomfort reagrdless of your body type/shape. The leg loops hook ups being on the bottom of the saddle keep the leg straps out of my croch...win.

agreed, I was wanting to use it in the summer here in FL when its 100 outside, like I said I still use it but a pvc pipe and workout band would have worked just the same, i'm switching to the noc2it in March after the season so maybe the accubow will help me get used to the new release
