Greetings
I am shooting a Bowtech Alligience, trophy taker rest, shooting app. one year, I noticed scratch marks on the left side of the arrow rest, as if the fletches scratched the fall-away rest, how do I set the rest to solve this problem? Would this have an influence on my accuracy, when shooting the bow?
It could be centershot being out as well as contact issues.If the centershot is out,the arrow could be rubbing harder on one side of the rest than the other causing the marks.
It could also be the rest falling too late resulting in fletching contact as well.You would need to lengthen the rope tied to the down cable so the rest will fall sooner or you might be able to raise the rope as well.
It COULD be the rest bouncing back up and making contact.
You can put some lipstick or foot powder on the rest and shoot an arrow through the bow to see if it shows up on the fletching.That will tell you if you have contact.
AND YES,any of these things will cause some accuracy problems,mainly in forgiveness.
