Default RE: Rest ?

ORIGINAL: hatchet jack

What is the difference or advantage of shooting with a flipper style rest vs shooting off the shelf of you bow. Thanks!

Hatchet Jack
For me, it seems shelf rest, you might need slight less spine for archers paradox and to clear the rest cleanly.

When I started shooting off a shelf, I was amazed how straight a shot a guy can get. Usually bows I see with a rest cutout or ability to put a flipper on, are closer to centerline, and spine is not near as critical.
