need advice on a new rest
I trying to figure out what to do. I currently have a NAP quick tune 800 but been debating to go back to my bodoodle super doodle 3-d rest and shortening my arrows a bit. I suppose it might help if you all knew what bow I have its a Browning eclipse SL.
But Im seriously thinking about going with a whole new concept asfar as an arrow rest is concerned the two im thinking of is either a trophy taker shakey hunter fall away rest but im just not sure about the idea of it Im a bit old school when it comes to archery that being said my gut feeling is saying go with a whisker biscuit QS and just stick with the basics. Id love to hear your opinions and advice thanks. |

A quality fallaway is truly hard to beat. The TT you named is an excellent rest and you'd do well with it. My personal fav and one I like even more that the TT is the Trophy Ridge Drop Zone. As easy to set-up and get to shoot perfectly as ANY rest you've ever seen,.... I promise you. I have no intestions of shooting any other rest this season. Good luck and good shootin'

RE: need advice on a new rest
Just keep in mind that the WB is the least forgiving rest on the market, and a fall away is the most forgiving rest on the market.

Don't let a bunch of misinformation shy you away from a WB. You will absolutely love it. And if you know just a little about tuning your bow you will have it shooting robinhoods. I would not recommend aluminum arrows with the WB, as I was getting some noise but as long as you go with carbons (ICS Hunter's in my case) it is as quiet as you can get. Forgiving? You've got to be joking. It is actually the most forgiving rest you can get. If you are lazy or just don't know what you're doing and have it set up wrong you can still get good groups. You will just have more fletching damage and you will have to re-sight when changing from field to broadheads. I have the WB QS Deluxe on 2 bows. Had the same on 2 previous bows. So, yes, I've actually used it and am not blowing b.s. that somebody's friend told his cousin's buddy.

I have put thousands of shots through my rip cord rests and have had no problems with them. I have them on three different bows and can't complain at all about how they perform. I'd recommend them without hesitation.

I never said the wb was a bad rest. I think it is a great rest for some kinds of hunting. Im sure you can shoot good groups with it but it is notthe most forgiving rest. Don't be rediculus. Im just giving the facts. Its simple, the WB is has full contact with your arrow at all times. After you let go of that string any movement at all will afect your arrow and it's flight, which makes it less forgiving than adrop away.A drop away rest, once you let go of thestring,falls completely out of the way and any movement after that will notaffect your flignt because there is no contact with your arrow anymore. So you can get away with a little more with the drop aways. That is the whole point of the drop away, no contact, more forgiveness. Don't let someone tell you more contact is less forgiving, does't make sense.Or let them explain why and see if it makes sense to you.

RE: need advice on a new rest
It depends on what you are looking for. I use a WB and have done so for years. I really like what it offers me. It's simple! I follow advice given to me a long time ago and that is.... Keep it simple stupid!
The fall away's are also good I'm sure. I choose not to go with one b/c of the moving parts. Moving parts IMO offer more opportunity for failure..... |
RE: need advice on a new rest
I choose to gowith moving parts, which means no bad movementsof my arrows.Bad flying arrows at living animalsIMO offer more opportunity for failure.
