Apple Archery Super E-Model Press?
 

In the Bass Pro and Cabelas Archery catalogues....these bow presses are sold and the description advertises that these can safely handle parallel limb bows.

Anybody have any experience with these presses? Are they indeed safe for the parallel limbs? Specifically a Mathews and Bowtech? Don't want to press my bow in an inappropriate bow press.

thanks

Call Apple Archery 800-745-8190. Also when I talked to them a few weeks ago they seemed like they where willing to wheel & dealing on stuff. Sounds like there slow and need the business. The apple super pro with the parallel limb adapter is supposed to be able to press true parallel limb bow. I have not used one yet so I don’t know for sure.

No way. The Apples presses are great for some of the early parrallel limbs...and any of your older longer bows. But, as limbs get shorter....and risers get longer...forget it.

Most of those pictures of blown up Drenalins you see....are from improper pressing....no way I'd put a Dren in an Apple...

I would go with either an X-Press....or my personal suggestion..a press from Last Chance Archery. Expensive...but not much more than the high ticket apple...and those LCA presses will press ANYTHING...with just one finger (except an Oneida...but all you need is two pegs on the wall for them).

I use an Apple every day and haven't blown up any bows yet:D
Let's see, today I had a Hoyt,a Ross and a Drenalin in mine.

The little bottle jack they give you is a POS though, I am on my second one in 3 months and this one is starting to go already.
I'm going to go get one locally and just have someone weld the tab on it for me.
