Sights/Rest for Switchback
 
I just bought a Switchback and now I'm tasked with the tough decision of what kind of sights/rest I want on the bow. I have been looking at a trophy taker fall away rest (pro shop guy said that it would just as good as a drop zone for about 30 bucks cheaper). Anybody have any other good suggestions for a rest for a switchback?

Also, some sights that I have been looking at include those made by Impact, Viper, Trophy Taker, and Trophy Ridge. What are some suggestions for good sights for a Switchback?

I would have A whisker bisciut Drop tine with the second generation whiskers. for a rest

And for the sights Cobra sidewinder 3 pins.

But thats just me, There are alot of reall great manufactures of sights, Copper johns is another good one too.

High Tine, are you reading my mail?!

I put a B2 WB on my Switchback, along w/ a Cobra Sidewinder (3 pin). Absolutely love it!

Switchbackshooter-

I also shoot a switchback!! Awesome bow!! I shoot the Shakey hunter by Trophy Taker. It is awesome and very easy to tune. In my opinion you will not go wrong with that rest. As Far as a sight goes check out the Hindsight @ hindsightco.com it is truely awesome and I will not ever shoot another sight system!!

For an arrow rest I would reccommend the APA Ultimate. Total containment and zero moving parts. Very easy to set up and adjust. For a multi pin sight I would reccommend the Viper sights with the long fibers and for a single pin checkout the HHA optimizer 5500.

Great bow. Love the equipment I have on mine.

I like that. It's typical. A guy goes and pays a gob of money for a bow and then is looking at mostly plastic sights to put on it. Try looking at HHA OL series if you want a very rugged, all metal, bright adjustable sight.
