Look at all the pretty pictures.

I had a ZE on my bow initially. If I had a traditional cable guard, I would have one now. But, the ones made for Mathews bows are a big pain in the donkey.

Dave-t, the key to fix this is to do a lot of "blank bale" shooting. It is probably a little late now, but maybe not. If you are wanting to get good form and shoot more consistantly, you need to practice working on one part of your form at a time. Shoot a bunch, not even aiming, just shooting at something close so that you don't completely miss the target. Draw back, and focus on that one aspect of your form, be it arm bend, anchor, grip, etc. Repeat shooting over and over focusing on that one thing until it becomes natural and your muscles are trained to naturally repeat it. Next, move on to another aspect and repeat. When you can draw back, and have the exact same form on every shot, then focus on aiming, an only aiming, everything else will happen automatically. If you draw back, and you are aiming, then you start thinking about everything else, you will shoot poorly. The human mind can only consciously think about one thing at a time. If you draw back and start to aim, then start thinking about your grip and anchor, you will not shoot well. Of course, this will take time, but believe me, it helps.

That sounds like real good advice.

It is, I promise an such

Snake, They're not that bad, Your ZE works great on my bow.

Bowhunter: Did you serve that yoke housing in or what? That is what I should have done. PS

[bowhunter]

Guy that goes by the handle "Crackers" made my string and cable for my Mathews and we just added a little extra serving and Have had no problem with the yoke wanting to move.

[PoisonSnake]

Yep, that is what I should have done. If I had done that, I would have kept the ZE on there. But, after a few shots, the housing moved, I started shooting erratic, so I went to shoot again through paper. Bow was severly out of tune. Instead of messing with it, I just bought another WB and was tuned in 3 shots. I have seen on AT where fellows talk about getting their bow "Crackerized".
