Hang in there I'm sure you'll get it figured out .The Muzzy is a great rest and I found it easy to set up on my Patriot Dually.

Well after talking to Mark Land at Muzzy today I think he has got me squared away with the MZE. I guess the Bowtech solo cams with parallel limbs are a bit tricky and required some patience which I have trouble with sometimes. After taking Mark's suggestions I had the bow shooting good in minutes. I just have to do some morefine tuning and I should be good to go. I will definitely continue to buy muzzy products after such great customer service.

I used the original ZE on my '03 Extreme VFT and crossed the cables above the slide. This allowed for enough movement of the slide to drop the arm out of the way. However, it did tear up the cables and you have to inspect them closely to see the damage.

I took the same ZE and put it on my new Tribute with the cables crossing below the slide. Not enough movement to get out of the way of the fletching. Ordered the new shorter arm and now it works like a champ.

BTW - Bowtech says to never cross the cables above the slide.

Well after some fine tuning I now have no contact and it shoots bullet holes. As far as Bowtech saying not to cross the cables above the slide I e-mailed their tech department and they said that it would not harm the bow. Also I have heard of cables being torn up with the MZE original version but the newer cable slides are much better then the original. Muzzy Tech stated that he has done and seen this done alot without any problems. Now I only shot it about 100 times so far but no wear yet. Ill just keep my eye on it. Sorry Gibblet!
