I am having problems with my WB Deluxe. I must turn my vanes so that the inside vane faces the cable. This way the only damage to my vanes comes from my cable. (On a side note, I have my cables adjusted as far tweaked out as possible) The other two vanes are never affected. However, when I turn my vanes to avoid hitting my cable, the two lower vanes are damaged on the metal biscuit holder that protrudes into the circle. I tried using feathers, figuring that they may lay down better. But they don't work at all. They shoot a very inconsistent group and are tweaked also. I would guess that this is due to the large width of the feathers. Any help on which way to move the rest...
I really love this rest, it shoots very accurately with a newly vaned arrow. I have about a 6'' group or less at 40 yards with an arrow that has only been shot 20 times or less. And it allowed me to kill my third elk this year and I don't turn 20 years old until November.
Oh yeah, I shoot a Pearson Silencer Bow @ 77 lbs with Carbon Express CX-400 30'' arrows. The vanes are right cylinderical 4'' Carbon Express vanes. And I shoot fingers.
Thanks for your suggestions,

Way outta my league.............wish I could help but I wouldn't know where to start.........especially with you shooting fingers.
If your bottom vanes are slamming into the rest's outer ring then I would say your nocking point is too high or your rest is too low. I would check your nocked arrow position and see if it is level (90 degrees) to your string.
I'm sure your problem is much more complex then that and the cable contact I really have no clue on.
Wish I could help more.
Hopefully one of the gurus around here will give you some advice.
Good Luck and congrats on your 3rd Elk. Sounds like you shoot pretty darn well as it is!!
