Installation - New Arrow Rest

X_Hair · 09-07-2008, 11:31 AM

I am relatively new to the archery arena and purchased a Parker Buckhunter last fall in hopes of getting into some early bow hunting this year in NC and VA. It came w/ a whisker biscuit arrow rest which worked pretty good but was wearing on my fletchings. I recently purchased an Octane Hostage Capture rest and have attempted to install.I have a nock loop installed and when placing the arrow on the rest ( I believe I have it aligned correctly), the arrow does not sit parallel to the cable guard. The rest is at full bottom and can not be slid any further up. Any assistance is greatly appreciated. Thx

Can you post a picture?

That will give us a visual

Hey Kanga, thx for the reply. Found a Gander Mtn in this area and went to it and they check my setup and all and said it looked pretty good. Shot a few to check for grouping and after a little tweaking I was centering 4 shots @ 20yds w/ in 2-3 inches.May be grand for some but pretty good for me. Will target a few more tomorrow @ 30 and 40 (being my extreme limitation). Thanks again. Oh, I tried to post a picture previously but unfortunately it didn't show up. Now I have to wait for my phone to charge in an attempt to inbed an image.
