I always look forward to these bow “builds,” but I think adding to the video how many shots it takes to get a bullet hole through paper and a grouping size at any yardage, just to have some data on which bow tuned easier or grouped better. Not just slapping the parts on and calling that a bow build. There’s a lot of people who want to know the minutia of this bow likes to tune nock high a bit, or that bow tends to need to be shimmed to the left from the factory. Thanks for all the great content! Always look forward to a podium upload.
I kinda agree. Learned everything from this guy. My builds go smooth putting everything on, leveling, tying soft knots, dloops, timing. But when it comes to tuning, it takes me forever. Never just a one shot bullet hole. I always have to tweak something.
Great video, all things archery are worthy of a watch. I did something similar last year, had an Elite Kure, Bear Divergent EKO, Hoyt RX5, and Bowtech SR350. Was fun getting mess with all four brands, and see which fit best. Loved the Elite draw, but ultimately, I am a Bowtech shooter.
Great video! I absolutely LOVED my Ethos other than the fact that it was really heavy (bad shoulders) and the grip angle. Ultimately I got rid of it because of the grip angle not being comfortable and there not being an aftermarket solution to give it some angle.
Love your videos very informative considering I am very new to the BowTech kind of world of bows. It’s funny the exact same set up you are using on the elite ethos is exact same set up that my mate is running in Australia.
Thanks for all the valuable information, it helped a lot when I was choosing a new bow a couple months ago. Got a Darton Prelude, with one of your 10" rods. Love your content and your products.
Awesome build! Can’t wait to buy this bow. Still learning on my bear adapt plus bow but narrowed it down to Mathew’s or Ethos! Can’t wait to get good enough for one of these bows. You are awesome MFJJ!
Big fan of this bow, they look great. You know what would make that Hamskea bracket next level? One of the issues with those square head screws is they tend to eat into the bracket, and so a precut one piece "washer" would be kinda nice.
If you don't mind me dropping a new bow hunter video suggestion. Do you mind doing a bow maintenance video please? Last year was my first bow hunting season. Do you just rub string wax and call it good? Do you do it more often during certain times? Do you do other things to maintain your bow through the year? Sorry if this is a dumb question but you have helped a lot already.
Thank you as always for your videos. I can’t even begin to express how much I have learned from them. I do have a question about this series of bow builds you are doing. Are you using the stock as out of the box bow strings, or are you using a new fresh set of custom strings and cables?
I’m interested to watch the tuning system of this bow in action. Wish Mathew’s would develop a n easier and more refined tuning system than the top hats…just a pain to have to press the bow, remove the axles, remove and install top hats, replace the axles, just to find out you have to do it all over again!
Thank you for your videos when i need to learn something i come here..i have a prime nexus 4 and i looked around in you tube and no videos that show detail build or tuning could you make one.Please thank you for all you do.
I’ve asked before but I’ll ask again, what would you consider to be the best way to set your center shot or as I call it setting the bow to zero. There are a lot of videos showing setting the rest to find the nock location. I would think finding the center of the string and making sure the cams are in time and then cinch your D loop into position and then set your arrow rest off the D loop. I believe these steps would be more precise with less tuning issues. Example, if the D loop is not centered you will pull harder on one cam more so than the other throwing the cams out of time. Or I’ll see people checking timing in a draw board and never check to see if the nock point is centered which can throw timing off. Please set the record straight. Thanks! really appreciate your effort and time
Can you do an update on the ripcord ratchet review and if you have put it thru its paces, durability and whether youd choose that over a Hamskea or QAD…commented couple times before on this. Just curious because it seemed to have some really good features and adjustments
Does that CBE have its own dove tail mount bracket you can use like the black golds used to have before the whole integrated sight came about with mathews and others? Was wondering for my Hoyt RX-1 if i decide to not get a new bow this upcoming season and run the RX-1 with new strings and cables i already have from Catfish Customs
bow squares are not square most times your on the serving and on the string, puts them out alot, the angle is high towards where to arrow the tip points, never a good place to start. reason knocking point 1/8 inch higher came from
I had an Omnia and couldn’t get past cables in my sight pic? Sold it and got a left over Solution from Podium on EBay and a Carbon One. Bowtech didn’t have that issue!
Can’t wait for the tuning videos. I am really enjoying the content.

Looking forward to the tuning videos of these bows!!
Really love the full build videos. Thanks for the lessons.

I use Cir-Cut D-loop material, because it melts a nice knob, and doesn't go up in flames as easily.
I love my Ethos. Such a comfortable bow to shoot.

Great stuff as always!! Looking forward to seeing the tuning videos

Learned a ton from watching your bow build videos!
These build videos are always great to see what you want to put on them. Looking forward to shoot off video to come
Thanks I really like the tuning videos and the bow builds
Was so sweet to be able to meet you and Dan from Elk Shape today! Appreciate you guys and I love your content!
I really look forward to and enjoy all of your content!
Great video! That is almost identical to my set up which I love
Looking forward to the tuning portion of this bow specifically how YOU manipulate the LTR & SET adjustments.
MFJJ you the wizard bro!! Love all the vids and info!
Another great video! I am considering going to the Ethos for my whitetail hunting bow this year!
I learn a lot from your videos. Look forward to the tuning video.
Big fan of this bow, they look great.
You know what would make that Hamskea bracket next level?
One of the issues with those square head screws is they tend to eat into the bracket, and so a precut one piece "washer" would be kinda nice.
Thanks for all the info!
Love the bow builds no matter who makes the bow.
It will be interesting to see how all these bows end up being tested to choose a winner. After that blindfolded draw cycle test, the plot thickens
Great video 👍🏻

Any chance you could do a video on your preferred method and others, of indexing broadheads? With or without out collars. Love your content. Thanks!
That’s the exact setup I want
Thank you as always for your videos. I can’t even begin to express how much I have learned from them.
I do have a question about this series of bow builds you are doing. Are you using the stock as out of the box bow strings, or are you using a new fresh set of custom strings and cables?
To me it looks like out of the box strings. I think he is testing how we all would get one from the manufacturer
Let's go! 🏹

Enjoy the builds. I do wanna ask if you liked the ripcord ratchet. Never heard anything else on it.
🔥🔥🔥
Love my pse and mathews, but the elite just feels like home.
F&$kin Joey!!!🤣🤣🤣
Thank you for your videos when i need to learn something i come here..i have a prime nexus 4 and i looked around in you tube and no videos that show detail build or tuning could you make one.Please thank you for all you do.
Can you make a video showing how to adjust your let off?
What would your top 3 bow builds be for East coast whitetail hunting?

I was so much better prepared going in to buy a bow a few months ago after watching MFJJ content.
I've become much better and more knowledgeable from watching your vids. Even have my own little personal bow shop now.
MFJJ - I’m curious, of all the bows you’re putting together, what is the bow that YOU are most excited about?
Do you apply wax to the mounting screws for the sight, arrow rest and quiver to keep them from vibrating out? Would you recommend it?

Hmmm... I'm thinking these bow builds are part of the giveaway? 🤔 that'd be sweet! Lol

Are the pins on that sight adjustable?
Why do you wax the d loop?
Why do you use a wrist strap? The Dud says it adds torque.
Where’s the rest of the rx8 ultra video
please include a yoke tuning portion for one of these or at least explain it more!
What's the response to people I've heard saying 4 arrows isn't enough in a quiver?
bow squares are not square most times your on the serving and on the string, puts them out alot, the angle is high towards where to arrow the tip points, never a good place to start. reason knocking point 1/8 inch higher came from

You're show casing your products, and 🤬 cursing your workers? Tighten that quality control up.😊😂😂.
Great video.
