If you could change anything on.......

[BOWFANATIC]

If you were granted one wish by your favorite accessories company to change anything about that product...what would it be and why?

Not bows! Just accessories like rests , releases , sights , arrows , etc. etc.


Mine would be to increase the overall diameter of the whisker biscuit by a 1/2" or so.
Some may disagree but I feel the WB is even more critical to spine than conventional shoot thru rests. From my experiences with biscuit users and poorly-tuned/un-tuned bows the majority of fletching/vane damage comes from unproper spined arrows. 90% of the time when I run across fletching/vane damage from the biscuit it's due to the outer biscuit ring , not the bristles , hence the black scuff marks left on vanes. I believe a larger diameter biscuit would be more forgiving to spine and torque issues and would ruin less fletchings/vanes for those who know nothing about the technical side of archery.
I used GoldTip XT's with my last three bows using a NAP Quicktune , BoDoodle Prolite , and Lizard Toungue rests with all arrows cut at 29". When I put the WB on I either had to turn down the poundage by at least 5-7 pounds or switch to my Beman ICS Hunter 340's to get a perfect tune.
You have to admit the diameter of the biscuit doesn't leave much room for error.

I think the question should be "What would you change and why?"

I have a NAP QuickTune 2000 Dropaway and I really like it, but I think that if they used a rope instead of a cable it would drop away a little faster than it does now.

Or I would say that Alpine should work on their Bear Claw 5 Arrow quiver. It's a nice quiver, but it doesn't fit snug into the mounting bracket like it should.

O.K. I'll play along.

I'd design a sight bracket that pulls my Copper John in as close as possible to the bow for hunting season. I like the compactness of such a design.

As it is, I've got an extra bracket on order that I intend to cut and maybe drill to do just that. I wonder if I could get them to send me a machined dovetail clamp on an otherwise uncut piece of aluminum. I could cut and file it however I want................hmmmmm.

Straighter/truer spinning Axis arrows........that stayed that way over time !!

The perfect hunting arrow for me !!

What would I like to change? Nothing really. This old bow is so comfortable and reliable for me. It ain't the fastest thing out there, but it is deadly accurate and quiet. I guess if I could think of anything, perhaps I'd like to try carbon arrows, but don't know how my bow would handle them.

Nothing. If I thought anything needed to be changed or if I had a desire to change it then I would.

O.K. Then why respond to this thread?[&:]

I would add micro adjust hash marks to my copper johns sights dove tails. It would make it easier to fine tune it.
