I have a 2005 Switchback XT and in my opinion, it is the best compound bow Mathews ever produced. 18 years old and still shoots like a dream.

At 13:06, I noticed one of the cable anchors is on backwards. Not sure if a total disassembly is really necessary, but to each his own. New strings and cables, cleaning and lubing the cam and wheel bushings, and cleaning out the cam tracks (rails) is good maintenance. I still own and shoot my older Mathews bows, (MQ1, and Ultra Max).

Great video!! Thanks for your help. I just bought a Switchback XT, and need to clean it like this. This is a huge help. Can’t beat the old Switchback XT for a simple solid hunting bow!!

Picked one up. Followed all these steps. It’s great. A silent bow. I needed a new idler wheel as when I bumped the bow it buzzed. The new wheel fixed it.

This was a BADASS video to watch Brotha!!!! I definitely need to do this to my bow!!!!!

Thanks a lot man💪🏻💪🏻

Very cool! Enjoy your videos immensely!!

Got an outback two days ago. Started to clean it up. Then bam ! Switchback xt showed up. Grabbed t. A new cam for it also. Tore it down like this. It’s coming together. Can’t wait

I need to start doing this on my bow every year 😂 You may know this but the best maintenance after this deep clean is compressed air 👌🏼 It’s a lifesaver for dust and sand in Africa. In the US you can buy it in small cans at hardware stores but I’m sure an air compressor for your tires will work just as well.

Definitely if it new dust 👌🏻 these were all greasy and trapped the dirt in some of the parts. Those little cans are handy but nothing beats the pressure from a compressor 🤙🏻

I wish you would have put up the measurements on the bow , like brace and showed your center measurements on the rest , and show how it looked tuned up with the string and axles

Thanks man!

Love your videos man !!!!!!!! Great production I am a KZread as well !

I have to do this to my switchback xt, reezen 6.5 and my mission venture. I'll wait for a rainy day.

Did you not put the old or new limb dampeners on it?

Where did you find replacements for the spring suppressors?

Your local bow shop has them

Are you still planning to do a review?

It would be cool to see how it stacks up to One Of Mathews newer models like the vxr or thev3.

Do the side by side with the v3

I know somebody who thought their eyes were bad for a year and shot twice a week before they found a cobweb in they’re peep now they can see fine

Pointless to dismantle the bow to that extreme
