Dan and company, you all have really stepped up the content quality. Keep the videos coming!
Thank you! Adding TC to the channel has elevated production! -DS
Great info thanks my peep has been driving me crazy. This helped a bunch👍
Glad to hear it
Arguably the best channel on all things bow hunting.
Wow - we're trying our best! -DS
New to archery and this video saved the day, thank you.
Great tip and very helpful.
I really need to be better about hitting that like button to help the algorithms. Thank you for your dedication to your craft: as a gentleman, a trainer, an archer, a hunter, and a sherpa.
Wow, thank you!
Two questions, what do you think about using a small piece of d loop material in string above peep and moving that up or down to realign peep or secondly a peep tuner button
Perfect timing. I’m having trouble with prep twist now. Thanks for the advice.
of course - thanks for watching
Line your D-loop up with the peep and it'll help it draw back lined up more often then not. As much as I don't miss the little rubber tubes they did a fairly good job of keeping your peep coming back lined up.
I love the little rubber tube peeps have them on several of my Bows, I also have a couple without.
You do know the rubber tube and peep are still on the market ?
@@cericson3426same here , I don’t use them in every bow but once my strings get a little older I’ll add it just to get another couple years out of the strings , probably would t be the best option for fixed head guys but shooting mechanical it’s not a big deal with timing being off a smidge
You are always making a difference! Thanks so much.
For those looking to go the "ghetto" route and not spend several hundred, you can get cable bow press. It's not nearly as nice as the Last Chance and it can be a little fiddly but it works. I have a Bowmaster g2 press. The nice thing about it is that it's portable, so it lives in my bow bag, that way if I'm at the range and need to make an adjustment I can do it right there.
Loving the content and subscribed.
I recently stumbled across your channel as I'm getting back into archery after a break for a year and a half, gotta blow the dust off my old bowtech insanity and put some arrows through it! Keep up the good work!
Thanks brother. Helpful video. My peep started rotating recently and it’s driving me nuts.
Hunted for years like over 15 years always used a tubed peep never had a problem with peep twist so everyone say peep tubes are for beginners so I got a new string and decided was a good time to try a peep without a tube and now what a pain in the a$$ I am constantly dealing with twist in my peep 😡 very tempted to go back to what worked .
So in a 5 second summary....take it to a professional?
Today were talking about peeps... and i dont mean the guy next door..... hahaha
Those last chance archery presses are pricey. But after looking at it it is a very simple build, made out of square tubing and I'm going to build one and Tig weld the whole thing. Sweet video.
Thx, I appreciate the advise. Just bought new bow, was doing good, then all of a sudden my groups getting farther left of target and noticed the peep was off.
typically happens depending how the serving is wrapped. Too tight causes a string twist underneath the serving. Tip: serve with tension without allowing twist underneath and in the same direction as the string twist. Any material can be made to stay straight. It really is how it was made.
The real quick cheat slide your string silencers a bit. Just make sure they stay clear of your cams. Works way better than twisting the D-loop and no press required. If that won't get it you need to throw in a twist.
Cool - thanks for the info!
Great video and as always, great content. It just so happens I'm getting a press from LCA for Fathers day, and I cant wait to give my factory 😞 string a half twist or more. My peep rotation is ridiculous, and VERY annoying.
So annoying... we've all been there - tC
I want a press. Although being quote new to archery I like going to the pro shop I learn something new every time I go.
definitely
....I still use the old rubber tube on my peep lol. Tried and true, works great, never have to worry about rotation. Pulls it straight every time.
I'm new to the archery game and have a new PSE. I'm getting ridiculous peep rotation. Annoying to say the least. An archery shop offered tying in the tube but I'm hoping things will work themselves out on their own as I put more arrows through it. Idk though.
@@fhpd350 my first bow was a bowtech and the stock string sucked. It would rotate 90 degrees no matter what I did.
@@fhpd350 The stock string on my PSE stinger never stopped spinning. New string seems to have solved it.
great video on fixing peep rotation. thanks
You bet
God bless you for the video man. Had a stock string on my bow, horrible rotation. Upgraded to ABB, still started rotating on my first day shooting. But at least Ik its a common issue
LOVE your vids Dude!!!! I watch every single one of them when they drop! I have my own home bow shop too and I have been tracking what you are doing and it is AWESOME! Keep up the great work, your passion really shows!!!! You seem like you would be FUN to hang around with and have a long range day to chat and BS around! Good Peepz!!!
Thanks Brian - Archery peeps are my peeps -DS
It is amazing some of the simples things we can learn by just watching !!! Thanks
These guys from Podium are the best
Really good information. Lots to think about. Hate peep twist! Thanks
Pretty gabby. Many ways to address peep twist. Also! Custom strings are great if they know how to make good strings. The next thing to knowing how is to do each step day in and day out. Lots of food material to make strings. The process to build and human error " ignorance " or " work ethics " is a huge factor. Also learning then hiring another person is another issue. Do they have the same " GAF" as the guy pumping his products?
You can always carry a portable press like the one from synonm that works off of rope pulling instead of turning a handle if it becomes an issue in the field.
A person can get away with using this press as a dedicated press.
I’ve been battling this since camp 2.0. Looks like it’s time for a trip to the shop.
Yessir!
Keep it coming! Love the grind and passion. I appreciate your knowledge!!
You got it! -DS
youll hit 15k in a matter of no time, keep killing it man !
Thanks Homie! -DS
I enjoy watching the channel, even learn a few things!! Thanks!
Always enjoy your videos. Greetings from new Zealand
GREETINGS!
A bow press was very intimidating until I saw this video thanks a lot my dude
it's doable!
Glade i found this channel
same!
Great tip. Sometimes the little things get overlooked
I just noticed my peep starting to rotate on me and was wondering how I could get it fixed. Perfect timing for this video! Thanks!
PERF! -DS
Just getting in to Bow Hunting. Thanks for the information
of course, thanks for checking out our channel
Thanks man. got a new sub out of me for this video. Getting ready for West Texas Aoudad in March.
Word!!
Another great one boys!
We're trying!
Thanks for the help Dan. Keep it up!
Any time!
a lil tip that i did in the field that a friend showed me was to take a toothpick if u happen to have one,,,insert it thru the string below the peep then very slightly slide it up or down and it will slightly move the twists in the string and align your peep..you of course cut or break off the excess toothpick and its just a quick fix in the field and only for a very small amount of peep rotation but it def works
Thanks for the tip. Fixed my issue fast!
Glad it helped!
Nice thx for the information.....
I'm just dealing with it
fix that sucker - TC
Good anchor form.
Nice Tip Dan as it Peep twist is something that is gonna happen over time. Props on your video productions, they're SOLID!
thank you - we're trying hard... TC
Thanks buddy I’ve watched a lot of your videos and have learned a lot!!
Your the man Dan
Keep bringing the videos!
we're hard at it
Thanks for the help.
I just had the pro shop install a new string on my V3 27", and the peep turns on my drawback.
Thanks for the video! Been doing some of my own tuning thanks to you!! Keep it up!
YES!!! -DS

I haven’t even bought my first bow yet (looking at the Hoyt Torrey XT) but I’ve watched a bunch of your vids. Sub’d. Cheers from Wake county, NC.
Welcome aboard!
After watching multiple multiple videos on the new V3 x and your heavily phrased hamski rest specifically the epsilon I went to my local shop but a bowl ask them to put on the hamski rest and they told me it will not fit with the detachable quiver. At that point I had to settle for the qad, after looking at multiple videos I found one that you had to add spacers and you used the side mount spot hog site I believe or you cut your dovetail off. I wish you would have mentioned that it would not work with the detachable quiver I would not have put so much time so much time into researching the hamski as much as I did. I do appreciate most of your video content
Thanks Dan for the peep tune and by the way peeps is Easter Candy Chicks also
peeps...
@@ElkShape Yeah look it up they are yellow marshmallow in the shape of a baby chicken sold as Easter candy for Kids called PEEP'S
Thanks for the advice!
Happy to help!
@@ElkShape it helped, much appreciated.
Great take on peep twist, thanks for the info.!!
I've always been a believer in O'Toole's law. It makes Murphy look like an optimist....
haha!!!! word! -DS
Great content fellas keep it up
I tend to have the most problems with Zebra strings with peep rotation. I just got a knew bow and im fighting it right now
Love the videos very informative keep up the great job.
Thank you man. Great vids and appreciate your hard work!
Always look forward to the new content. Keep it up!
Much appreciated!
Awesome tip was thinking about this the other day and how to sort it
Awesome man! -DS
Good video! Keep em coming
Holy snap. You have the exact same strings as me.. pine ad natural. Lol
Sweet. Huge fan brother.. 👏
I got to say and maybe it's because I'm outdated been bow hunting for about 40 years I prefer the peeps with the tubing because they are always straight. (If you go on a trip just make sure you always have some extra tubing in your pack)
I have bows both ways and inevitably the non tubed peeps end up crooked at the most inopportune moment.
When you make your twist are you twisting them to tighten the cable, loosen the cable, or are you twisting them both the same direction as the peep needs to be turned?
instablaster...
I know this is an old video but here goes. My peep is slightly turned to the left with my new string. I always shoot about 50 arrows before installing the peep but i did not this time. I always see videos saying to put the bow in a press and rotate the string a half of a turn at the bottom to fine tune a close to correct peep. I pulled my bow back and had my wife twist the string a quarter turn as I was letting down. It worked and has held up for 50 to 60 shots. Is this not the equivalent of twisting the string 1/2 turn while on a press?
Great content.
thank you!
Freaking awesome buddy
I like the channel, there’s some pretty cool info on here that is helpful, I appreciate the content.
Glad to hear it!
Helpful
Thanks G
I have a different problem third time it’s happened this week but my peep sight keeps coming out of my string
Question? When adjusting the peep rotation is it just the nearest cam that gets the twist or both?
Thanks for the motivation to tune my own. I will check out last chance archery for a press.
EZE Green All Day! -DS
I have over 1K shots on my 28 and the Zebra string keeps rotating 🤦🏻♂️ I’m definitely getting some custom strings if it keeps happening.
it happens.. we like custom
I’m struggling w the same w Zebra. 1st year was fine then the twist began and won’t stop. Had it restrung. Still twisting even after pressing. Boo!
Always struggle with the focus on the target concept, in the firearm world they always say to focus on the front sight
Everybody talks crap about the zebra string the mathews comes with. Truth be told they all stretch. It’s gonna happen. After it’s stretched and set I’ve never had any problems with the zebra string. After so many arrows it’s set and I’m good. Anyway lol!! Tim get a mathews!!
Dan's working on me Rueben - until then, my realmx is still slinging true :) - TC
Wouldn't putting turns in your string change cam timing?
Nope it’s good
I blur the target and focus on my pin my mind knows where to aim by doing this two things halon my pin really sits still and if I focus on target and not pin my pin will tend to float below the target not saying that’s right or wrong just what I have found works for me
Peeps I immediately thought of the Easter candy
Great video, helpful
Twisting the string change your draw length.Take strands and move them on the peep instead.
Missed a good buck last day of the season last year because of peep rotation. Pissed me off
Love all your videos
Thanks Shawn!
Hahahahahahaha you answered my sight picture question I asked you on insta!!!! Hey bro, I really appreciate all the answers you’ve been helping me with, you improving my game 10 fold
Right on!!! Happy to help where I can -DS
Awesome video
Thanks for the intel man! I'll be looking into doing my own "shop setup" as well soon, watching your videos is a huge help in tips and tactics on the equipment setup so appreciate that very much! Video content/quality has been stellar keep it up guys! And question.... how are you liking that Bowmar nose button? Heard and seen some about it seems pretty neat!?
All good man!! Try it out, thanks for being a part of the elkshape community
@@ElkShape
How bout the Bowmar Peep Tuner ?
Did you just call me 'an elk shaped person' !?! I resemble that remark... wait, resent... I resent that remark!! 😂🤣
Great vid, thanks from Australia!
I have to twist my string before I load to see thru peep a arrow ,kinda annoying
Sure is
Amazing!!!!!
Thank you! Cheers! -DS
Thanks, I own a APA bow, never worked on it myself but I may just try that now. Only question is which way do you twist or untwist..
Good stuff, thanks!
Glad you liked it! -DS
