RE: Drop away rest? Are they all that good?
Have any of you had tuning problems with drop away rests? I could not seem to " microtune" my bow. I use this term from the Easton tuning guide. With a drop away rest, fine adjustments to rest and nock position did not significantly change group size. With a traditional prong style rest, I am able to fine tune and noticeabley improve group size.
Maybe I was not setting the drop away rest up correctly ( Trophy Taker ) but I seem to be " MORE" accurate with my " old faithful" . I don' t see how set up is any easier with a drop away rest either. They both have to be set for center shot. How does a mechanical part make that any easier?
Don' t get me wrong. I didn' t have any problems hunting with the Trophy Taker. Killed 3 deer so I can' t really complain. I just didn' t see any advantages that would warrant spending the money for high dollar rest that could potentially fail.
