Well I got my Nite Hawk portable bow press last week and I've pressed my tenpoint 6 times trying it out. I never changed anything yet just checking everything out. I bought a back up string and I shouldn't have any trouble changing my string anywhere.  And cables too. It seems to press the bow with no trouble at all you can press vertical bows with it also. The only thing I didn't like was the rubber pads on the bottom they are a little mushy. I think I'm going to put a little firmer ones on. But if it continues to work like it is now then I'm pretty happy.

    Yes I believe it is.  On my order it was called SMALL bow press.

Great press. I've been testing one for several months now and it works great.

Rampage I wouldn't know for sure unless someone else on here has done it. But you can try to contact the manufacturer of the press and ask. I can tell you that there are lines on the bracket kinda  in the middle that are used to be in line with your limb ends or tips so the bracket is properly positioned on the limb and there is 3 3/4 inch clearance between the lines on the bracket and the bracket cross member that holds the press together. As long as your cams have room in this pocket I would think it would work but I'm guessing.
