I'm using both this season. 29 for the saddle and ground hunting, 33 for the hang-on.
Do you make the holders for the bows that are on the wall or are they called something? I like that
 
hokiehunter, those look like guitar holders. Can be purchased at any "Guitar Center" or similar music store you have around you. They're generally about $6-$15 each depending upon where you buy them.

Why did you switch to a different cam? For more speed or was it something where you couldn't find repacement etc.?
I bent mine on the 3d course a week before the season. Curiosity sent me down this road but as a bonus a 26" z7 cam cost a lot less than a hard to find secondhand 28" sbxt cam and it's a bit faster. A guy on archerytalk has done several of these and talked me through it. Pretty cool imo.

That is very cool. How did you know what string and cable length to use for your draw length etc. I'm very intrigued with this. Looks great btw!!
 
And the diameter idler wheel for the top of your solocam still worked for that? That is very cool!!!

I'm not exactly sure how it's calculated but he has it figured out for both the switchback and the xt. 89" compared to 87 3/4". Cable stays the same. Cam used is 2" shorter to achieve same draw length 26" = 28". All of this is beyond me, I'm glad he figured it out haha. Top limb and idler wheel are the same.

Cool, is there a timing mark on that cam so you get the brace position correct on it for level nock travel etc? How was it to tune?

There’s timing hole is the hole closest to the riser. I put two twists in the cable to get it dead center. From the picture it looks a little off but it’s the angle of the photo. I haven’t shot it through paper yet. I just put a bunch of arrows into my target from 5 feet to make sure my limbs held up haha. I removed between 1/16 and 1/8 an inch from the inside of each limb to clear the wider cam. In a couple weeks I’ll set it up properly and get it tuned but I don’t anticipate any troubles with it at this point.
 
Is your sight new too? I'm in the market and considering that one, looks like an acxel rgeotech HD

Awesome bow too! I just got a solution SS

I’ve had the sight for the past year. I believe it’s the armortech. It’s the 5 pin version. I’ve had spott Hogg, hha, and black gold before and the Axcel is my favorite.

Might be armortech, thanks!
