Just put on my Mach 5 on my commander. Seems to fit tighter than normal. Think it will brake in?

It does have some requiremnets listed. Don't know what kind of rod yours has.

umm, ok

what do you mean by "tight" bc??

i have one on my Reflex Highlander. it definently pulled my cables ALOT more than the stock plastic hoyt one...i cant tell if its wearing my cable(the one closest to the string) or if its just making the wax look different from the way it rubs..it dont look frayed or anything though...

the actual slide is holding up...cables arent cutting into it or anything and i got over 500 shots with it...probably well over 500.

doesnt "chatter" in the rain...which is why i wanted a teflon one...just didnt want an all white one...

Its tight on the rod. Cables are moving smoothly, and it moves my cables out of my way. Just seems doesn't move very freely on my rod.

thats kinda odd....i thought they were all the same diameter...

did notice on mine that my rod had some flakes of teflon for a while...i just whipe them off..looked and the teflon still looks good...maybe mine was tight and i didnt know it lol..

Nope. Dartons are smaller and not metal. They are for metal rods only if I remember right.

bigcountry,

Did it feel tight when you put it on before the cables were attached or are talking about it feels tight now that it's strung?

The reason I ask is I put one on my Bowtech/Diamond and it slipped on the cable rod kinda tight but once the cables are attached is pulls the slide tight against the rod and only the teflon part (it's only on oneside of the slide) is now touching the rod. I noticed that I can push it forward and back on the rod easier with it strung than not.

It seems to "free up" once pressure from the cables is applied.

I only put it on without cables so far. I assume you have to loosen up the cables by pressing (or for me I can do without a press). I will try it with the cables on tonight.

Guys is there any way to get it on without pressing the bow?
