As far as rest go. remove what ever type of rest is on the bow. Go to the hardware store and buy a I-bolt. It will slide through the Rest hole in bow. The threads are different so it will not screw in. Just use a washer and nut on the other side. Also it is a good Idea to take some epoxy or JB Weld and fill in the small grove where the loop touches the bolt. That will prevent the line from catching. It is a good cheap rest. The arrow will not fall of and supports the arrow well. Most rest are way too soft to full support a solid fishing arrow. good luck..johnny .b
