I se the the Bo doddle arrow rest is shut down. I had one once I couldnt get a clear arrow clearance from it. Plus wouldnt stay on the rest very well either.Are they gone?? Im not bashing them they had a interesting design. Just didnt work for me.

Yep, they are going out of business.

From what I understand the main owner (correct me if I am wrong) is having health problems. I am assuming the family didn't want to deal with the business any longer.

Like I said, that is my impression and it could be for some other reason.

But I do know for sure they are not being manufactured anymore.

I currently use the Bodoodle Zapper 400, looking to buy my second one soon (as a backup). I had some clearance issues when I first started shooting, I didn't quiteunderstand you had to load the arrow cock vane up everytime.

I haven't had the arrow falling off the rest, but then again, I have 1/8" diameter heat shrink on the prongs and also have the prongs fittingpretty snug against the arrow shaft. Not too much, but just enough to hold that arrow firmly in place.

This may have been your issues with the arrow not staying on the rest. It is pretty important to have those prongs set just right to allow for proper arrow containment along with proper arrow clearance.

Probably not the most accurate rest in the world but it definately works in keeping my arrows from falling off the rest.

man i am sorry to hear that. i used to call that fellow every now and then just to talk - started when i was having clearance issues and developed a friendship. i'll never forget when i said something like ' have it about a millimeter from the riser' and he said 'millimeter, son this is the united states of america and we don't use any communist systems of measurement in texas' (or something like that - but i fell over laughing.) he was like an instant grandpa to me.

Like I said Gibblet, I am not really sure if that is the case. I would suggest you give someone a call if you would like. You might get a better understanding from them personally, rather than just word of mouth through my source.

Gibblet, that's fantastic!

I hate to see that as well...I have a Bodoodle Pro Lite on my current bow, I had a Bodoodle Pro 500 on my last and I'm in the market now....hopefully if I decide on the a Doodle again I can find one. I have never had a problem with them, in fact they've been incredible for me.

CP Oneida Eagle Bows bought up allthe remaining rests that the factory had.

I love my Bododdle pro series... Never had a lick of problem with it. The easiest rest I've ever used.
