Pretty crazy to see so much moving and contacting the arrow.

That's really neat video, I noticed they are using one of the old Biscuits. It looked like that arrow jumped upoff the bristlessome on release. I'm wondering if the nock point wasn't too high?Also, didn't it appear the rest wasn't aligned exactly right with the bow?This is how I saw it, anyway.

Neat video. Looking at what the arrow is doing, and where the arrow is relative to the location of the Berger button; looks like the biscuit is mounted about 1/4" too low. Lots of people mount these - get it all wrong. Then when the biscuit starts damaging fletching, they declare it to be junk. I now have them on all my bows.

Poorly installed and not exactly what I'd call level nock travel on that bow.

I'd also like to know how the arrow in the video did thru paper, with a broadhead at 20, 30, 40 & 50 yds. Plus, how it would have done with any other rest with the arrow that low below the "berger hole".

Do you gentleman have your knock point with the arrow level when resting on biscuit? I've been tweeking mine and have it pretty close to proper flight. I've found that when people say only move it 1/32" at a time they were not kidding. When I tried to tune mine the first time I tried to use the marks and the pattern was all over the place. I'd like to add some sort of micro adjust to the biscuit.

I looked at the video several times. I think the camera angle made it look like the arrow was below the burger button. If it was really that low the fletching would never have cleared the shelf w/o some major contact.
