What rest are you using Rack?
As of today I have the drop zone on my patriot - and I have the fuzzy fletchings to proove it

Rack with all of your exp, you cant set up a little ole trophy taker? now thats funny
Setting it up is easy Jag - I am a pro at that.....getting the darn thing to work right is where I seem to fall a little short

Rack just ribbin you a little, In my eyes your one of the big boys on this forum and when
it comes to a bow I figured you could do it all. You were on top of the pedestal but
I think you have fallen a notch. LOL

I finally got my TT SH working on my Mighty-mite with no fletching contact, but it took A- LOT of tinkering.

When I was at witts end with it I gave up and took it to a pro shop, he moved the center shot out away from the riser. I don't know why it worked, but it fixed my fletching contact which looked like a vertical issue to me.

I shoot the trophy taker original and wouldn't trade it for love nor money. I just followed the instructions and it shoots great. It leaves the shooter with more options as to helicle,offset, fletching size etc. All contributing factors in improving broadhead flight. It also improved my scores on the 3-D range as I don't have those cases of the nock not being just right. Everyone has there opinion. This is just what I beleive. Hope this helps.

I put one on my Mighty Mite and it works fine except I think it is pretty loud when shot. I will probably be getting another Muzzy Zero Effect but I had the Shakey Hunter laying around so I put it on my new bow.

Pretty loud?
Mine is silent.
Do you have it landing directly on the shelf?
If so, a small piece of insulating foam tape placed on the shelf will take the noise completely away.

I just had the shakey hunter put on my 04xtec, replacing the wisker biscuit. I had the guy at the proshop pu it on and do the tuning. when we paper tuned it their was a big difference between the two rests. the WB wouldnt tune quiet as nice because it ran out of adjustment to the horizontal side. I tried another shop to get it tuned too and same result. I must say I really liked the idea of the wb but within 10 shots I could tell I had better accuracy withe th TT. Just my 2 cents!

I had some "issues" with the one I used on my bow as well. After I get it back from 5shot then you are more than welcome to have it and then you can save more than $30.
