Love your channel love this shop!!! Picking up my v3 all setup today

I have a V3. Shooting since 80. Have been Hoyt and bowtec. This Mathews is the finest smoothest most accurate of all. So very happy with it.

The guy putting the bow together look like he took his time and did a fantastic job!!!! That’s Awesome!!!!!!

Awesome post Guys ! I love your Page , I’m an East Coast Bowhunter and I’ve been shooting since 1984 and I learn something new almost every time I watch a new episode and really enjoy how Josh takes his time and explains how things work and how he wants to make others better Archers and Bowhunters ! Keep up the great work and hope to visit you guys some day !

Great video. I like Josh's approach. Thanks Tim for taking us along for the process.

Just bought my 31. Waiting on sights and rest to arrive. Thanks! Strings will have to wait until later this summer. I’ll shoot all spring and summer on the Zebras and get the practice out of them. First bow for me.

I just purchased a new bow myself, really enjoyed the content. Good video guys.

Another great video guys. I always pick up a good tip or two watching.

All the pro tips are solid! Super helpful, mahalo guys

That was a good one guys thank you!!

Josh did a great job talking/walking through that. Great looking bow.

Dang, I wish I was closer to that shop! Great information.

Sweet build ! Very informative thanks guys cheers 🍻

Good stuff fella's....enjoyed this and did learn!

Goal achieved you made this guy very happy, Elk Shape winner.

Great comment about putting constant forward pressure through the front hand to help with stability. Can’t wait to try that tomorrow, thank you. Sincerely, a new shooter 🏹

Finally a great video on how to set up a bow.Great job. Only comment, when your peep need rotation ,I like drawing it back in draw board,see where it sets,then press it pull the peep and rotate to the desired spot. Spinning the string could change axel to axel length. But still,a great video..

Thanks for the video brothers. I'm calling in for a set of your custom for my Mathews Monster 6. Again, awesome information! Dwest

Awesome videos. Hope to see some of Tim’s hunts in the future.

Your so fortunate to have that bow builder on side....lucky you...Great looking bow by the way...

Awesome video👍 i just set up my v3 31 in january an i totally love it. Im shooting better than i ever have. I hope to see some total archery challenge videos this summer.

Wonderful video

I can vouch for the LCA ez green press being shipped same day from SVA! couldn't find one in stock anywhere lag time is 4-6 weeks from LCA. MFJJ had stock and shipped same day. much appreciated. Thanks to Elk Shape for sending me in the right direction!

Great information. Just getting into bows and learning. Wish I had a shop like Josh near me.

Not only is it a dream bow, but the bow build is being done by a dream bow builder! MAN!

Looking good Tim!

Really dig these style videos. Keep it up guys!

I bought myself a V3 31 as well,, I did get the real tree,, I jumped up from a Diamond Infinite edge pro,, I didn't get to shoot a bunch of different flagships but I'm happy to find out most people either pick this bow or it comes in close top 3,, but some people are clearly biased as well,, I know you guys work with Matthew's kinda but that's completely understandable they apparently make awesome bows

Nice build. Hope it shoots well for you.

RUBE - thanks bro!

if your bow hunting, never have a stabilizer/weight past the farthest point of the bow, why you might ask? Deer/most big game see movement and when you have something sticking out farther than the main object moving(bow or you,draw) you only amplify the movement. Learned this from a Marine specialist/sniper. Might explain why they are back in cover and never have anything sticking out past the main point of movement that isn't necessary. Plus with the new V3 its so well balanced you don't need that extra weight.

Good video

Ordered a press from josh a couple days ago, can attest he ships them fast lol mine should be here tomorrow

When im ready to buy my Mathews im driving the 11 hours from Alberta and buying from Josh!

Don’t forget to have Tim throw monkey tails back on unless he doesn’t care for them but they do help. As well as the wishbones from pine ridge

Also love that bow it's identical to my V3 31 black on black. That is the exact string color scheme I was thinking and after seeing it no doubt what I'm going with.

Bought my press from SVA last April!

Love your show on KZread lering a lot tk you sir.

I’ve never heard the 10 deg down explained exactly like that. With my target bow I feel it makes me dip and went back to the straight. Have never tried it on my hunting bow.

just came across your channel great content is a little long though keep up the hard work

Awesome stuff, giving me the itch to get a mathews lol

You should bolt a small vertical piece of metal to either side of that bow press with a little bungee cord and a hook on it so you can just hook those cams to it when working on it

Might have missed it in the vid...what was the reason for going to sideplates, and not the stock grip? Love the vid. 🤙🏻 wac em and stack em!

Question, when you draw a bow on a horizontal draw board, as opposed to the vertical one in the video, how critical is it for the riser to be plumb?

Great video friends. Always dig the bow/arrow content. How does one get the elk shape mfjj bow setup treatment? Seems to be the most thorough I have seen online. Gonna be rolling thru Spokane in early August and might stop in with my VXR. Cheers!

Sweet set up I have a V3 31 ordered LH 29" 75# black everything! Yours looks sweet cant wait to get mine! Plan to shoot factory strings till worn out and then Gas Ghost string with flow pink servings! What peep did you go with? Rad, Accu? I know it's a 1/4. Great video I enjoyed seeing it come together!

I just got my hands in the new V3 31, left hand in stone. I have the Mathews rear side bar mount and stabilizer. The stabilizer is mounted in right side and the entire stablizer will move up and down freely. It wont tighten down frim that right side. I scuffed the finish a bit trying to tighten it down. Is the up and down movement normal? Seems like it should be tight.

Like the video very much, also good information. I noticed when he was trying the scoot sigma. The veins where really touching his skin, how do you correct something like that. If I’m wrong please let me know. To be more exact is on minute 14:45 by the way not judging, just trying to learn more.

Is there a set of questions that you can ask a bowshop to see if they know their stuff? I feel a lot of bowshop owners do not fully understand the mechanics of setting up a bow. If they have been to a "Mathews Bow School" will they have the right knowledge? Tough question maybe to answer. If a bowshop sells Mathews Bows do they "have" to be trained to work on them?

Wish I could find someone in Colorado that can do what mfjj does. I’ll be traveling 12 hours round trip to have my v3 31 setup with gas strings. Can’t wait to get it going. Still cant decide on arrows. Thinking gold tip pierce platinum. Chime in if you think otherwise.

Just realized I’ve been buying stuff from podium not even knowing it was josh. Just got my press a few weeks ago

For MFJJ. When paper tuning, I always thought you wanted to shoot the arrow perpendicular to the paper. I was surprised to see such a steep down angle in this video..

If you never have played with paper tuning and nock tuning. Obviously a bullet hole is perfect but is there a okay spot that isn't bullet hole? Like if you're within a 1/8 or whatever that would be a very helpful video

What's size peep did u go with?

whats the make of the vest in the beginning mate?

Do they ship strings? Custom make them?

Glad you asked about stuff to tinker with. How about draw length fine tuning. I can't seem to find anything about it. I know my draw length is between 27 and 27.5, but I'd love to see if I shoot better with 27 1/8 or 27 1/4. Of course, my bow doesn't have modules for that. So I'd like a video on how to adjust draw length and how to know when you've got it right.

Roperboy87, appreciate your responses, but what I'm trying to understand is how do you know when you have found the right draw length. For example, how do you know that 29 1/4 is your correct draw length and not 29 1/8 or 29 3/8. I presume you are watching for your smallest pin float, or scoring dozens of shots at each draw length to see which is best, or is it something else?

just wondering, does Josh need to lower the poundage before pressing the bows for like 70 or even 80 pounds?

He's the very one who mentioned the #1 rule for archery shop owners is "Dont draw your bow without a nocked arrow" I don't blame you guys for not knowing but MFJJ should..hes an experienced shop owner. You guys have a great channel but don't treat MFJJ's technique or advice as gospel. MFJJ contributes a lot of good things to the archery community and your followers but he can improve on preventing potential dryfires. He should be showing newbies the right way to do it.
