Just got off the phone with Matt at Bear Foot Archery, my GT500 has been "Mauled"! Will be shipped back home in the morning!! Had him swap cams(for proper DL), build me a new set of string/cable, Flo. Green and Tan, install a Limbdriver Pro w/ matching cord and work his magic.
Final specs are:
27.5" Draw, 60lbs, @ 311fps:woohoo:
I'll post up some pics when she get's here.....man the wait has been brutal.

Matt is the best. I gladly drive the almost 2 hours it takes to get to his place to have him tune my bows. Dang that reminds me. I really need to pay him a visit.

No one will be disappointed with Matt's service. I am glad to have met him. I definitely need to drive up to his new shop.

I think I am going to go up there on the afternoon of the 12.

I still think I have one of the fastest GTO's ever thanks to Matt.

Matt really knows these bows and does an excellant job tuning them.

I'll finally join the Elite club once my GTO arrives today or tomorrow. I need a limbdriver and some shafts. I don't want to hijack Shott's thread, but does anybody know if Matt works weekends? If so, I might have to stop by.

Looking forward to the pics Shott!

What exactly is the "Mauled" process?? My DL is 27.5 and I get 322 with my 26" lightspeed 3D arrows, but my hunting FMJ's are more like 295-302... I'd be interested in speeding up my hunting rig to get my arrow flatter!!

I'm going to try. My son as a football game. Depending on what time his game is I'll try to make it. What time is everybody planing on being there?

I am going to try and be there around noon if I can get done working on the farm early enough. Then I will probably stay till around 2 so I can come home and watch Michigan play ND. lol

I wasn't able to make it this weekend, so now I'm planning to head over there Thursday evening or Friday afternoon. I just got off the phone with Matt & he said that he can Maul it while we wait. Now THAT's service! Mark- let me know if you would like to carpool. ...and don't forget to bring some B-stingers!

Maybe Matt can hook up a TV and we can all watch the game at his shop. We can tail gate in the parking lot while Matt tunes our bows. LOL

Matt supplying the "refreshments" too?? WOW! What a marketing GENIUS!!

Would love to Brian, but I have munchkin duty until my wife gets home and then it would be too late in the afternoon. THANKS though!
