RE: "WHAT is this?"
GaBowman:
Lots of advantages. No nocking points to adjust that can cut the serving. No arrow rest adjustment. No arrows falling off the rest at the worst time. Can't have an arrow blow up in front of your face that may go through your arm. When arrow is loaded, you cannot cut or stab yourself if you fall. No spine strength worries. Yes, lighter arrows have less energy. But, you can make that choice easier with the tubular rest and make the arrow fit the game you are hunting. Also, you can't torque or pitch the bow while shooting. That's a big one for accuracy. As far as price goes, how much do you pay for a good bow with a good arrow rest and a release? Just some things to think about. The company gives everyone 30 days to return it if you are not happy. Forgot to mention, no paper tuning is neccessary.
