[@TimConnor13]

Look at you go ol’ son!! Solo filming a project. I’m proud of ya 💪✊

[@lucysoutdoors]

The good is we know your excellent at bow work, but camera work not so much😂😂

[@travispurdin84]

Thanks mfjj, great informative video

[@royhoglund1322]

Really good information. The little pro tips that seem minute are really helpful. I can't wait for the tuning videos! It would be helpful to know how much paper tear correction you get from each tophat in the kit. I'm really glad you are doing these videos! Nothing beats learning from a pro!

[@michaelhage489]

Awesome, great timing. I’m putting Gas Strings on my V3X 33 for the first time. I’d love to see a video on timing.

[@pab40sc]

The camera angle from above was extremely helpful. Look forward to more videos and the sequence used to install cable and strings.

[@tye1776]

Even though I don’t own this bow, super helpful for the process. If I ever did buy a bow like this, awesome reference to go by! Feedback like you requested. 1. Better lighting would help a ton. 2. Better shots of the cams and posts. Maybe add some still shots while editing. Thanks a bunch MFJJ! Maybe the Bowtech Solution SS next? 😉

[@richardganz9318]

These video's are so helpful when it comes to learning new bows. Changing strings and tuning different bows can be challenging since finding the correct way online is almost impossible. Finding one source or video with all the details on this is priceless, it saves some much time searching every forum or KZbin. Thanks again

[@jons7e]

I'm running Gas Ghost XV camo strings on my V3X 33 ... huge upgrade over zebras and they are solid!

[@CoachGoodwin23]

Hugely helpful - thanks Josh! Can’t wait to see the timing video!

[@rickdraper2600]

Just bought me a Vertix.

[@adriancuevas1587]

Great video as always. Not sure if its the lens on the camera that doesnt seem to focus to well on the close up shots or the lighting. May some still frames for the important close ups ?

[@stephenmarcinkiewicz]

Would love to see you hook up with Tim, build a dedicated film studio around a bow press and pump out more content like this👍

[@shaneg8531]

I've been watching your videos for years. I LOVE all your team videos you do between the channels..... but seriously.... gas... greatest archery scam..... we all know your builds are 100xs better. I'd personally like your build myself but I lnow how to do this so I don't want to send you my build bow bc I'd miss it to long. I'd love to try them but I can't afford the wait of shooting reps. Love you mfjj though. Ps....... I know custom builds... that's NOT gas their the greatest archery scam. Your a custom builder and build on.

[@claywhitten4626]

Where's Tim??? He's got camera skills! Just kidding. Setting up to do our own bow/arrow work at home. Great seeing "how to" videos and hearing "tips". Looking forward to seeing more videos. Thanks for answering emails.

[@nicolaalberti7736]

Step 1: go to the draw board and measure exactly the draw lenght. Step 2: go to the press, replace ONLY one cable and its yoke. Step 3: go to the draw board and synch the cams adjusting the lenght of the new cable you have just installed. Step 4: go to the press and replace the other cable and its yoke. Step 5: go to the draw board and synch the cams adjusting the lenght of the last cable you have installed. Step 6: go to the press and replace the string. Step 7: go to the draw board and measure the draw lenght, adjust it until it is the same exact lenght as you measured in the beginning. Done: no more adjusting required, you can install accessories, D loop and go tuning. This is how I replace strings at home, best method I've found.

[@darcyfloreani9722]

Why do I need to measure before I install my strings. I jave a V3X. Should axle to axle be 33 and the brace height be 6.5. Would be nice to discuss how to adjust the cables and string to make that happen.

[@raymondtapatu6869]

Appreciate al your knowledge and experience ❤❤👍🤘🤙👊 thank you 🙏

[@wcwcgarner2717]

I just put a set of Gas strings on my Granite V3X 29. In flo orange wt gun metal servings. And the Total peep tech grip for mathews. The best grip on the market for mathews bows.

[@the_sharp_carpenter]

That was an easy to follow. Only thing I would say is work on getting the bow completely in the frame, and making sure the focus is locked. Other than that, looking forward to seeing more of the tinker/"bow building basics" always good even for people that already do it.

[@dfucca]

Thanks for the video. Not too bad, can follow what you’re doing easy. Fix your angles a little and you’re good. I like “common sense” and you got it !! Put more vids out.

[@MikeAroni1974]

Great video! I'm curious if the ATA was correct with these strings. I had a set of Gas installed on my phase 4 33, and they were too long resulting in an ATA of 1/8" over spec. They has to add twists to the cables, and string to get the ATA back in spec. Maybe the shop just ordered their sets too long.

[@Cbow406]

I was watching your video, going step by step, then realized im missing 1 cable... had to put one of my old cables back on

[@bradlemur4153]

Hell yea man! I’m stoked for future lessons with master MFJJ!

[@rc7175]

Great Video. Simple, straight forward and to the point.

[@zachallen9170]

Great video, breaks it down to not be so tedious and gives some good pointers along the way, definitely makes me feel a lot more comfortable to change mine myself instead of having to go to the shop, wouldn’t get this level of content anywhere else, excited for the next segment of this

[@clintmurray3795]

How about a video with some different ways to tune a phase 4/ V3x now. This was a great help in learning to change my own strings, but now I'm ready for the next step.

[@The_Rut_Funnel]

As someone that doesn’t change a lot of strings I find it’s easiest to do one string at a time.

[@ryanbealer4280]

Is there any way to change all your cables (except the yoke, of course) in the field with the matthews SAS cable?

[@davidflippo4860]

Great video! Definitely want to see a video on top hat tuning and timing the newer Mathew’s bows. Also, how many twists and what direction to get the cables to lineup in the hole? Also would like to see a string change and toming vid on bowtech ss34! Thanks man!

[@michaelmiller6197]

The lower camera seemed hazy. I love the video. My brother and I have been making our strings and installing them. It's been a big learning curve.

[@jflood123]

Thanks for the excellent video. If you could add something in how to deal with peep twists and rotation issues to your project list it would be greatly appreciated.

[@martinfreitas4164]

MFJJ will you show putting strings and cables on a Hoyt RX7Ultra? Last year I had a serving pop and start to unravel so I went to the shop where I bought it and he spliced down the broken string and it held all season and shoots fine but I want to get a new string and maybe do it myself.

[@howieb7832]

Really appreciate your sharing this kind of thing. The little things that might go unnoticed like inserting the cable ends through the yoke plastic piece from the underside. Something that might be done wrong by the inexperienced. Looking forward to the future vids. Even simple (yeah right) things like peep/d loop alignment done by a "master" would be appreciated. Thanks Josh.

[@slmed87]

Thanks for the videos! Any tips for knuckle heads like me that had a cable untwist while working and not sure how many turns to put back? Thanks

[@adamserres12]

Nice job very informative definitely needed for those of us learning to work on our own equipment only issue I saw is a couple things did not focus in like for example cable on the cam peg. One thing you could do here is add a few pictures of the important stuff like that to the end of each video. Just a suggestion not something that’s absolutely necessary.

[@harveygalloway3965]

You are a lot quicker than me. When I changed my strings, it took me a while because I done one cable at a time.... LOL

[@YELLOWTA93]

Hey great stuff. Could you do one on a single cam bow. If there is any difference! Thanks!

[@tedgifford1627]

Some of the close ups were blurred, but you will get there. Good info and keep up the good work and slow down just abit. I get it, time is money it seems and we do have a pause function available.

[@waynestevenson9613]

What a complicated piece of expensive junk just to change string and cables!

[@scottmclean2389]

Ordered a bow press from you after watching this video. Looking forward to the timing and tuning videos.

[@aaronlontine4479]

Think might be a better perspective from your View, so we see what you are seeing.....maybe not but it's a thought but I understand that its kind of a hard shot to get and stay out of the line of sight. Great Video

[@JoshHolmstead]

Looking forward to the timing video

[@clintmurray3795]

I wanna say thank you! This really gave me the courage to dive in and start learning how to work on my own bow. I bought a press last week (from you of course) and today I just finished my first string and cable replacement on my new V3X. It look me a bit, but this video helped a ton! Got it all timed, and I'm gonna build a paper tuner tomorrow and hopefully be sighting it in tomorrow afternoon. Really awesome!!

[@fishinfreak44]

Great video!!!! Nothing against my home town bow dude. But I just feel sometimes they are trying to get you good enough and out the door. I have purchased my own bow press and need to set up shop and start doing my own tuning

[@mikebarriga]

You have to keep making these videos of you want to get good at them. A word of advise. Get a mic so all of your videos sound the same. Also as you are narrating act as if the person you are talking to is blind so there isn’t a whole lot of “grab this thing” “remove this thing” . It makes it so guys can listen to your video as they do it themselves.

[@adamhalcom1608]

Great video a lot of quality information that most pro shops won't tell you I appreciate that. Not sure if grating better focus on things such as the cams is possible but may help some folks. You have a wealth of knowledge and glad you are willing to share. Keep laying the content down. May God bless you

[@jonesboyshunting8673]

Great job for the first time doing something like this. Maybe some better looks at the cams. Keep up the great work.

[@Kodyanderson402]

I absolutely love the more in depth videos over the fast forward how to bow set up videos. I’m pretty stoked to watch the cam tuning videos coming up and would love seeing some more in depth string,sights,cam,arrow videos!!!

[@EARFISHY]

Awesome, great video, can’t wait for the RX7 ultra

[@germnscoot]

Great video, do have a recommendation for a budget bow press. Most of them are $$$$$

[@drewolm]

Plus one on the magnet tray. I put two on top of my press. One holds my Allen wrenches, razor blade and a spare axle I use to push the axle out. The other I put my parts into.

[@craighanson6936]

First time I did mine I did not check my pictures to see if they were in focus so when it comes to reinstalling strings, I had three blurry pictures that were useless. Take the time to check your photos to make sure they are clear.

[@jackbuendgen389]

I think you should have the top camera zoomed onto a cam. That way we can see details. Be sure it's in focus please

[@mikebarriga]

I’m looking forward to seeing a video on the timing and all that. My phase 4 shoots like hot garbage.

[@mattgipe84]

Love the video content, but if you’re going to show something important to one of the cameras, maybe edit that part into the video… 😂

[@GostoFan]

I don’t know if I could trust myself not to cut the cable trying to install it like that without removing the wheel

[@joevandivner9704]

I had a set of Gas strings put on my V3X and I swear it now has a twang when the shot goes off and I can not remember ever having that before with the stock strings.

[@Archerypunk89]

What if the ATA is wrong when you measure initially? Do you get the new string to the correct ATA or set it to what the old string was?

[@lawrencefranck9417]

Great video but, Why would you replace a new string?

[@kurtwest5306]

This video made the install look alot easier than some other videos I have watched, thanks MFJJ! Look forward to the timing videos.

[@ronniephelps968]

What happen if you get the new string and cables on and in spec but you don’t have the right pounds.

[@perryknetter8577]

Get job on the solo video Thank you so much for sharing this wealth of information

[@DrakeFlesh]

What is the performance gap between a 60lb and 70lb bow?

[@Brad-yv1fo]

Great video. Would like to see you build a set of strings and cables step by step and then install on a bow.

[@markbuckingham6119]

Found this a really good overview & to be honest feel comfortable doing it. Would also be good to see the same procedure done on bows other than Mathews. When it comes to tuning I would also like to see how to tune some of the different types of rests (eg cable drop away as opposed to limb activated).

[@ginop524]

Exactly what I was looking for. Thank you!

[@bertcard2307]

Master Tech sharing his skills and knowledge thank you

[@Pariscj]

Great video just waiting on fixing the timing on newer mathews bows

[@rhysdensmore1313]

How do you add twiats to the control cables? Do you roll the loop end or just twist the cable?

[@scottscherch5974]

great video - this makes it easer when I change my strings. also what color was that ?

[@grantprice6803]

Just ordered a set of gas strings from you. Question a press is definitely needed?

[@chadpotteiger9279]

Awesome content and can say enough how awesome it is that you are willing to share this info.

[@heathatkinson9491]

can you do some older bows like an old pse bowmadness if you can find one its a single cam bow

[@ramzeygardiner8838]

Can you do the hoyt spyder turbo? I know it's old but still

[@michaeldusek6680]

One question I have is do you back out the Limb bolts

[@bernardbuechner1797]

Why did you not remove the roller so you don't cut the strings

[@tylerelkins9619]

Were these the Ghost XV's or the High Octane???

[@jeffsmith1830]

Got an omnia? My ghost strings come in next week!

[@5MinuteMaj0r]

Now do it outside in a tree stand with a SAS for bonus points.

[@ryguy12369]

Can you do a video a qad timing? And paper tuning?

[@58BowNut]

Thank you for all the great information!

[@TheDreadedHunterTV]

Great video. I've been looking for something just like this.

[@podiumarcher3447]

Glad I could help

[@mikesabo5151]

Do you still make your own bow strings!

[@cuylerrobinson6128]

Helpful video - keep up the great work!

[@robertfazekas4607]

Hi Josh!! I have one question, my bottom yoke cable slightly touching the cam on the left side, when I draw my bow. How can I sort this problem out? Looking forward to so see the timing video!! Nothing wrong with your camera work! 😎🤘 Kind regards Robert

[@timabbott4235]

Can you take your time, seems rushed.

[@jeffrylotz138]

I think I'll just send my bow to you

[@Archer_927]

Awesome video is there gonna be a ss34 one

[@Will_Osborne]

Would love to see a review of a APA bow

[@mayhem035]

Man you didn't choose an easy topic to du a solo video! It was really nice. The top ca was awsome. You forgot to edit when you pulled off bolts and bits to yrhow in the magnet tray of the first cam removal. 😊 man it was really cool! Liked it alot! Keep up the good stuff man! 👌👍👊

[@dudleybaker2879]

Great information MFJJ

[@shawngirard3799]

Look forward to the follow video. The that gets into the nitty gritty of twisting cables and one would have too........Good Stuff man!

[@JerryPalmerton]

This is great and well received by us DIY people that are learning to do this. I would vote for a video of how to shim a cam (not mathews) and the process involved. Very little on KZbin with this subject.

[@lindsayholden5255]

Love the content mate! I’m just getting into archery so absorbing everything like a sponge! Forgive my ignorance but I’m curious as to why you change the strings on a new bow? Is it a quality thing or something along those lines or is there a performance factor that comes into it? Keep the vids coming, you are entertaining to watch and love that you freely share helpful information based on experience!!

[@ronsgarage2057]

Never knew strings come pre twisted to spec! Great work as usual Josh! Thank you!

[@oldpapawwithastrat9384]

Great info. Thanks

[@olehemlock]

Love it, keep these coming.

[@fueyomichael]

Thank you for posting this! Just ordered some Gas strings from you and this was the perfect walkthrough to install them.

[@ctcooky]

Thanks Josh. Good job

[@rtdrumz]

Great walkthrough
