Hey cabelas, I read on another forum that the best fallaway for the legacy is the Trophy Taker. Mainly because it raises by the downward motion of the power cable, the the draw back. Plus from what I've heard the Trophy Taker is one hell of a rest. I however shoot a NAP 2000 fallaway. That works for me.

Kelly, I have found that the drop a ways are a bit more forgiving with broad heads, but like you said, with patients and the right spring tension you can get the same results with a prong rest. They deffinately help with vane clearance if you are shooting skinny arrows and a helical.

I just bought the book "Idiot Proof Archery". So far it is very interesting and informative, a damn good book in my opinion. I am starting to rethink some of my original ideas and things I have been told about tuning and form. It is geared more toward target archery, but could help anyone that wants to learn more about the sport. I tried a few things out yesterday that were in the book and some seemed to work pretty well. We will see what happens tommorow.

I installed and tuned my NAP Quicktune 4000 fall away in less than two hours and went from grouping near the bullseye to 4 out of 5 arrows in the bull. It is a tack driver.

The cable was split so I called NAP that afternoon and they had revised the slide system. I remarked at how easy it was to set up and tune and the tech laughed out loud. Then he advised me that the only ones that have trouble setting them up and tuning them were the Pro's.

I added 2 fps in the switch over but the accuracy is phenominal and I'll never go back.

On a note of the physics of the arrow, once the arrow leaves the string it is on its own and anything touching the arrow will significantly add to the drag coefficent on the arrow. A fall away looses contact on leaving the string hence no added drag which results in a much more accurate arrow flight. The difference in drag coefficient is obvious in the 2 fps difference between a standard prong rest (I used the Quicktunew 1000) and my QT 4000. I have not done th math but I assume that this would also result in an overall increase in KE (though very small).

Dont tell that to Mike Anderson who is one of the top pro shooters in indoor archery. He won 10,000.00 with trophy taker and shot perfect scores in vegas rounds. Several of the top pros in archery today are shooting them. They work and work well.
