Here's my baby, a 2010 Elite Z28 in the middle of a complete rebuild. Taking it up to Milo at SCO next week so he can work his magic. Looking forward to shooting again. It's been driving me insane not being able to shoot the last month or so!

Dang Flutey! You have that thing looking like "a basket case" right now. I'm sure when it is dialed in you are going to be stoked!

I need to get some pictures of mine as well. All I have is pictures from the stand or laying on top of a deer. Bad pictures of the deer I have killed with it too. Both of these deer were right under me and had high entry/low exit hits. Blasted that doe at about 5 yds from 27'. Not the best picture, but she went about 50yds and dropped. Massive hemoraging.

I have a 2008 Hoyt Vectrix Plus, and a 2009 Elite GT500. Also have a Shakespeare trad bow but I have not bought any arrahs for it yet so I am yet to shoot it. I don't count it because it is being neglected.

You shooting slick tricks Hicks? If so how do you like them?

Yessir and I like them really well. Never had any major issues with my Muzzies, but had a couple of them get torn up pretty bad. Only other thing would be the difficulty getting them tuned. The Slick Tricks came highly recommended by several on here. They have required nothing to tune. Shoot pretty well like my field tips. I would say the hole is comparable to the Muzzy holes and they seem to hold up a little better upon impact.

Here are the pictures of the big doe I got with 20min of season left last season. One lung and a liver. I thought she was quartering away a little more than she was so I aimed a tad farther back. Turns out she was a little more broadside than I anticipated. Just clipped the rear of one lung and the liver.

I should re-word how I stated that. I have not had a problem with Muzzy's killing. They have only been torn up practicing.
 
Finally got her back together! The Proline Threads look great and I owe a big thanks to Milo at SCO for getting me back up and running! I appreciate your time buddy!

That thing is looking phenomenal, Greg. Any timing adjustments needed after putting on those new threads? ProLines are kick-ass threads... My Z was dead nuts right out of the gate with them.

Very minor. ATA was spot on. I think Milo had to put a full twist in one cable if I remember right.
