Talking about vane contact, my wife was having some weird contact with her rest. The cock vane that was pointing down was getting beat up pretty good and there was residue on the inside edge of an area on the rest about 90 degees from where it should be. The vanes on her arrows are very soft and flexible and it looks like they are flexing too much and curling over before they reach the rest. My vanes are stiffer and with the same rest I' m getting no contact so I' m buying stiffer vanes in the future.
