I didn't say it wouldn't shoot well. Just that if your arrow is not leaving perfectly straight thru the rest it will rub more is all. And if for some reason you were really knock high it might actually hit the ring.

I have never used one, just set a few up for others. I do like the newer version. And I will admit it is a great spot and stalk rest, but I wouldn't pick it for a target rest. I honestly have never had any problems with the arrow falling off when I shoot. So it would be a solution to a problem I don't have. And then I would probably go with a Muzzy and an arrow holder just as a personal preferance.

And all rests will shoot well when out of tune. Especially with field tips. A bow really doesn't need to be in tune to shoot well. That is purely a function of the archer and how well your form and release is. Having a better tune just makes it a bit more forgiving is all.
