I don't think he was aiming that comment at you. I think it was a hypothetical sort of thing. Like he meant the same type of guy that would have someone slap a rest on a bow and then not buy it because it didn't perform right would be the same sort of guy that would cry about it being a used rest at a later date. I don't think he meant YOU specifically, at least I sure didn't see it that way. Like me he has probably met A-holes like this, and I don't think any of use believe you are this type of person.

Kodiak, thanks for not quoting me out of context, you did a great job of summarizing what I said. Too bad I can't do that when I type.

I have another question, were you just wanting to see A drop away work? To see what the hype is about or how they function? Or were you wanting to see a specific model demonstrated. I can't believe that shop didn't have one bow with some sort of drop away installed on it. I have asked that question before and a few of the guys that worked in the shop showed me their personal bows and how the rests worked. I don't think it is too much asking that a shop has at least a few of their products ready to demonstrate, especially something as popular as the drop away rests.

However expecting them to have every gimmick, gadget and new rest that comes out mounted to a bow is asking a bit much in my opinion. There is a lot of pretty iffy stuff out there or stuff that is fairly similar.

Reminds me of something that happened at the shop I used to go to, where I got my first compound bow. I asked about a product, may very well have been a drop away rest when they first came out. He bluntly told me he didn't carry them because he thought they were junk! However if I wanted one I could get one at cabela's about 20 minutes down the road. He wasn't mean about it, just stating his opinion. I loved that old man, he was funny. Too bad he passed away while jogging one day.
