Yea Like gib said, it is released as thehook rotates around the half cam,and can be set buy the set screw that holds the cam in place,some people have trouble pulling back thetwo finger,if there bow weightis set high,i just madeone fora buddy,with a thumb post,to help pull it back and that seems to work,anymore comments on the prices,?

For a lack of a better word...your work looks "profesional"

If i was a target shooter i would definately pay fair market for one of those!

Well the Rest ,is silenced for hunting it is extremely quiet,Back tension releases are not just used for target,i fought the idea of hunting with one but after you get use to it i truly think there isn't a more accurate style release,because you cant punch it.

Well, Carter releases range from 110.00 - 210.00 for back tension releases. This model, the solution 2.75, sells for around 175.00. I would guess you could get 100 - 150 for a hand made custom built back tension release.



As far as drop away arrow rest I would have to say right around 80.00 - 100.00 seeing as how the quicktune 4000 sells for 85.00, the MZE sells for 90.00 and the PSE goes for 75.00

Well I'm not charging over $100.00 i think$150.00 -$200.00 out of the question,ii feel alot of company's gouge on these products,and spend more time making profits then making improvements,I'm going to get a web site on these products ,after i receive my patent papers back and see,if there is a interest in selling them,viewing by the hits i got here,and the great feedback think I'm going to do something,i just dont know what........Yet Thanks Rick
