Guys I keep reading posts about the Bowmaster and how people are putting wrenches and sockets, bending the tightening levers and generally fighting the thing. Take my advise and put something like a rope or belt around your grip and the other end around a tree or other stationary object. As you tighten the Bowmaster simply put some tension on your bow string and follow it up with the Bowmaster press. This way there is absolutely no drag on the threads of the Bowmaster at all.
