Fasten your seatbelts, it's gonna get rough. Two-bagger. [8D]


Frankly, I've always been of the opinion that full contain rests are bandaid solutions to underlying problems.

What I've noticed over the years is the guys who have trouble with their arrows falling off a prong rest don't have the prongs adjusted wide enough. For hunting, they should be adjusted as wide as they can go without contacting the hen vanes. That lets the shaft sit down inside the prongs just enough to keep it in place. When it's adjusted right, you should be able to tilt the bow at least 90 degrees each direction without the arrow coming off the rest.

If you've got them adjusted like that and the arrow still falls off when you draw, then you need to look at your setup to see if the bow is tillered right, on a dual cam bow if your cam timing is synchronized, or if you're getting severe nock pinch from your release.

Fix the problem before replacing the rest. Then, if you do go ahead and replace the rest, you're only doing it for insurance.
