    I started shooting a Mathews switchback I got from my brother a few years back, but never changed anthing. Bow has same sight, stabilizer, arrow rest, etc as the day I got it. I don't feel the need to get a new bow because this one works just fine. I was really considering re rigging the entire bow to bring everything else up to par. If you had to conpletelt re rig your bow string and all, what would you put on it? Figured this summer I will go have all this work done.

    Depending on what accessories you have it maybe be worth upgrading a little bit but it may not...only you can make that decision. But what can be done for sure is replacing the string and cables with an aftermarket new set. There are a ton of good custom string makers out there...60X, winners Choice, vapor trail, xfire. Johns custom AT name: Breathn....Proline.....all good products and really will help with making over a bow that has a little age to it. A couple of people i metnio will also super tune a bow if thats something your wanting and you don't tune yourself.

    Need to get string and cables replaced was also considering a slider type sight. Just want to hear people's opinions on sights and rest . Might get some good ideas. Will definitely look into the manufactures you listed though

    HHA makes a great slider, reasonable prices to on some models. I have a couple. CBE is tops also and I been shooting one for about 6 months and love it. I also have a spot Hogg and its bullet proof.
    Some sliders I have seen and shot on bows I have tuned for others include copper John mark IV, good sight for the money.. Also a Optix xr2...think there re better options for its price.

    Does anyone have any experience with the Vapor Trails Limbdriver PRO-V Arrow Rest... I like the concept of it and it looks like it makes more sense than a standard drop away rest. Anyone use this?
