How about a pic of the bow being pressed correctly? I wouldn't know where to begin with that press just because I've never used one or seen one used. I have a Bowmender. The instructional DVD that came with it was a lifesaver. Without the instructions I would have been lost.

Some how those razor topped fences around nuclear power plants make sense to me know.
I can see proper care of your long bow or recurve might be something an archer would want to know how to do.But disassembling one of the most high tech bows on the market today in you basement seems allot like in home dentistry of self taught minor surgery.
Ever heard ,Don't try this at home.
Does The term trained professional ring a bell?
I guess, maybe thats why they call them "pro shops."

I will get a picture sometime here soon. Basically, the two lower posts need to be right down close to the limb pockets (mine are up a bit too hight), and the upper two posts should be higher up toward the cams.
