Have you bare tuned your shafts ? What I'm asking is, do you get awesome arrow flight ? If you do, then a different rest probably aint going to make a lot of difference IMO.

"WB" and precise accuracy out to 33 yards? Try again next year.

Stay with the rest your familiar with changing now wouldn't benefit you in time for your corse test . Any new gear takes time to familiarize yourself with.Hunt mup is right you just need to practice lot's and focus with no distraction's . Also make sure your arrow's are tuned correctly .good luck

"When used with the little foamy arrow holder that comes with the Drop Zones the CJ Bobcat and Alleycat are damn good drop aways. They should come with an arrow holder like the Naps and Drop Zones do.

"My Bobcat has been stone cold reliable on my Newberry, and when I couldn't get my Drop Zone to work to satisfaction I put it on my Protec. I absolutely love the rest and I've had ZERO problems with arrows falling off of it in in multiple 3D shoots and long sessions of practice. I will not have any reservations about taking it into the field this season."

"I used to shoot a WB, and that will be on my backup bow."

Do you suppose that the "WB" was too difficult to keep tuned and accuracy was inconsistent? What changed? Maybe he now considers the "WB" to be a "get by" for the average shooter but his skill requires more.

One phase of evaluation or comparative evalutaion is analytical (logical) evaluation of design and proposed performance (usability or potential usability of a product) compared with known criterion.

C.......I think your reading a lot into the post buddy ! Maybe he's just become a CJ staff shooter !

As for your "one phase of evaluation " .........my question is.......when are you going to get around to the other phases .........like actually trying one ?? [][:-]

So lets get this straight if you haven't tried it you can't knock it. If you have and don't like it, your still wrong.

I did for a month and it sucked plain and simple. Your response to me was that I must not know how to tune my bow. Well I guess not but it is shooting consistently now with my 3D rover after ten mins of putting it on.

The only reason I bought it was on reccomendation from a buisness associate and I didn't like the rest that was sent with the bow. So far the only advantage to it, and I admit it did it well, was that the arrow won't fall off.

I don't know about you, but I never had a problem with arrows falling off my rest. Is there another advantage that I'm missing?

hoytrazortec don't be afraid to change if you can't get the WB to shoot consistent.

Never!

Considering the known principles regarding what is conducive (facilitates) to best arrow flight, consistent accuracy, and longevity of reliability, the "WB" has flunked my initial evaluation.

Anything can go wrong at any time with any gear regardless of manufacturer and design. I just do not want to be constantly concerned that something is likely to go wrong much sooner with a particular piece of gear then with another.
