What are clearence issues?, and why have I never had to deal with these on my Mathews?
Because you're worrying too much about uneven nock travel andtolerance issues.[8D]

Sometimes the cables get in the way of the innermost vane when using Blazers.

You've probably never had to deal with it on a Mathews....because it usually only affects bows shooting over 260fps.;)

There are 3 models of slides listed under the Hicks name on Lancasters website. You want the white one listed as the "3D" slide. This makes a difference as the others are pulling the cables over too far or not enough. If I still had an extra I'd send it to you but my last 2 are on Dan'snew bow and my new Guardian. [8D]
They all say 3D. One says hunting, other target, and the other says 70-10 3D. Which one should I get for my Guardian? I don't shoot blazers, so clearance is not as much an issue, but cables more out of peep view would be nice. I have aftermarket Eastman slide now (which I think is similar offset as Sims), but it does pull to the side quite a bit. Which Hicks slide would pull over more than stock, but not a lot?

Jeff I'm glad the Simms worked. I was worried you wouldn't be able to use those arrows!

The 70-10 3D.

I think it's also the only white one, Matt. I think the other two are burgundy and black.

I recall you saying to order the white one?
