I gotcha Centerfire. Your biggest problem is the rest.



The Monarch is a launcher rest. Even worse, it's the lizard tongue type. It's made strictly for shooting with a mechanical release.

When shooting with fingers, the arrow flexes side to side during the launch. We call it 'archers paradox'. Fingers shooters need a rest that gives lateral support to the arrow. Without that support the arrow will not launch straight toward where you're aiming.

One of the very best fingers shooting rests is the old reliable springie. This one is mounted on a cushion plunger to give a lot of adjustability to how much side resistance you give the arrow. Costs about $12. (Best used with feather fletched arrows though...)



Another of my favorites is the Cavalier FreeFlyte Micro. This is the one I've got on my compound. Centershot is micro adjustable. It costs around $36.



There are tubfulls of other fingers rests out there, mostly made by Golden Key Futura. www.goldenkeyarchery.com

Once you replace that rest with something compatible to shooting with fingers, you'll be in a lot better shape.
