After playing with this VBG fallaway on my new Liberty, I've found that the little "flipper finger" falls MUCH too slowly, no matter how its set. That being said, I removed the flipper arm, and have found that out of about 150 shots, not a single one had the slightest difference in flight other than an absolute straight line. However, now I'm kind of questioning the point of even having this rest, since I bought it for its arrow retaining abilities. I suspect I'll play around with it some more and see if I can come up with a way to make it work better. Has anyone else done any test that will concur with mine?
Absolutely!! So far I'm really disappointed in the rest. I tried to tune mine for over 3 hours this weekend. After 3 hours and feathers ripped completely off of 4 of my arrows, I gave up and put on a Quicktune 3000. Had it shooting bullet holes in 6 shots. The "flipper finger" that holds the arrow on while in the let down position is where I'm getting the most contact. It just plain gets in the way. This is pretty disappointing from a $100.00 rest. I'll probably keep mine and tinker with it a little more, but I don't have a lot of faith in getting it to work.
Did you notice that you had to set your arrow at least an arrow diameter above your berger button hole?
