RE: new bow problems
Thanks for the help guys. Just so you know it was the Muzzy. As bigbull suggested the muzzy had lowered itself when the increase in weight was made. I have had no experience with this type of rest and have some getting used to. I now know that moving the poundage around also effect the muzzy and tuning of it are required.

RE: new bow problems
Well, I got the bow shooting pretty good. My groups are not as tight as I would have hoped, but will come with practice.
Got the Muzzy tuned, with the mightymite and no contact is being made.
70lbs x 29" draw x 350gr arrow = 290fps average.
I have two brass nocks, all the stuff from the hush kit, and a superball peep on the string.

RE: new bow problems
really? i thought it was slow! I was hoping to get into the 300's. What's weird is the bow is two turns backed off from bottomed out and is reading 70lbs. If I went all the way it's like 78-80. It has more power but I don't need it. Still getting used to it!

RE: new bow problems
Increasing your draw wieghtmight haveslightly changed your nocking position ,try adjusting your nocking point slightly down..I also found a similar problem with my own bow [BowTech Patriot Dually with the MZE rest]this summer ,I'm sure once you adjust your nocking point you'll be back in the running .
Now that you've found that the MZE had lowered itself ,if you had done a paper test you would have figured it out either nock point down or arrow rest up.
