RE: patriot dually owners
Dennis,
I have never used a MZE on any bow, but I know Ausie_guy uses one on his DC PAT, and I *think* Matt/PA used one at some time.
The only drop-away I've used on my personal bow is the MBG Trapdoor, which works great.
From what I've seen most of the drop-aways that use a slide to control the rest arm can be problematic on a a bow with such short cable slide travel as any of the VFT bows have. However Ausie would be able to tell ya what kind of effort was involved w/ the MZE

Dennis.
Jeff is right I have the MZE on my Pat Dually and it works great plenty of cable travel to get it and down out of the way.
If you want I can take some pics and email you.

Got bit by the speed bug Ausie? 
I think you will like it. Mine is a 02 tall BH and shoots very well. 70@29 402gn CE 400 peep and loop @ 296 w78#KE. The 04's should be rockets with all of the new goodies. It should be a great bow! Have fun with your new ROCKET LAUNCHER

After I got my Pat Dually I shot the BK2 and almost traded the Pat back in
It was not so much the speed but the whole shootability of the BK2.
I think it will be my primary 3d bow next year.
IMO the Pat Dually is still my perfect hunting bow.

RE: patriot dually owners
I had an 03' Pat Dually and I think the ZE effect would work without problem.......I do have an 04' BKII ordered as well. (I have the Liberty , might as well go the other way for a play bow)
I was contemplatin throwing a ZE on that when it gets here, I just hope that it will work with the low brace height.......not sure what role that bow is going to play just yet but i've been threatening to get one for 3 years now, and I finally bit the bullet. Mine is going to be a 60# model, so who know maybe I'll try a little 3D with it?
Ausie can I hire you to come along and pull the arrows?[
] $2.00 an hour with your name on it!
I still would like to get my hands on a Pro40 Freedom cam for full time 3D but not sure how I'm going to swing that one?
