I have the EZ green, great press. Does what I need. Don't know the difference between EZ green and EZ.

 

Can I ask a question? How long of a bow will ezpress work on? Will it work on 45 inch Hoyt tribute?

 

Ez has the wheel not handle and it's more expensive. Get the green, outsider draw board and hand wheel and you will be set.

 

Larry, you say get the green and then buy a board and hand wheel?

Thanks,

Les

 

Yep, go to ArcheryDezign.com and look at his draw board attachment and hand wheel unless the crank is ok. I wanna get a wheel just haven't yet. Makes it easier to get press in and out. I run mine out to 39" on tape on press when I am checking weight and stops and such.

The only thing I don't like about the ez press is you have to get the extra attachment fingers to press the defiants. $240 is crazy for what they are. Biggest reason I don't own a defiant

Yes they are expensive but they can be used for other bowsmthat are also way past paralle. Like some of the Bear and PSE bows.
They are a must for any shop that uses EZ presses. We have 2 presses and two sets of extra arms. We could use a third one LOL.

 

I also got the draw board. To me it was worth every penny. The crank (as opposed to the wheel) on the EZ green doesn't bother me a bit. I don't press a bunch of bows and it works great when I do press mine.

 

The EZ Green has done everything I needed it too. Including taking a bow apart and replacing the limbs. I have several elite's in the house so I need to get a second draw stop finger. Would like to get the wheel and draw board but have not gotten it yet.

 

Oh I agree a bow shop definitely has to have them

A wheel would be nice on my EZ green, but I don't really need it.


I made my draw machine using a cheap miter stand from Menards.

 

You can buy wheels on Amazon pretty cheaply if you wanted one.

 

Goin' there now to check it out.

 

Anyone have an Amazon link for the wheel that fits the EZ Green?

 

I built my own press and purchased my handwheel from Grizzly Tools. Good quality and prices. You'll have to drill it to fit the shaft size on the press. Pretty easy to do with the right tools.

I have the wheel on mine... if your only doing one bow and not changing for size much... the crank is fine, if your doing different bows of different axle lengths a lot, the wheel makes it easier/quicker to change for the different bows

 

I built mine. Looks similar to a LCA, but there's only so many ways you can build an inline bow squisher.

Machined fingers from 5/8" aluminum.
3/4" Acme rod, with the last 3" on one end turned down to 1/2".
I turned fine threads on the last 2" of that.
Bought a hand wheel on Amazon and tapped the hole to 1/2" fine to match the shaft. Backed that up with a 1/2" Nylock.

Thing is MONEY. I even made the double hinge thing so I can rotate the press on two axis. With the Archery Design drawbord, I can hold full draw and rotate the bow.

With the draw board, I'm about $400 into the whole thing, and it's awesome.

If you've got the know how, I'd recommend building one for yourself. It was a fun project.
