You really don't need tools to find centershot. You should be able to eyeball it to start bareshaft tuning. In fact, I rarely use my centershot tools anymore. Most of the time if I bareshaft tune out to 30-35 yards, the paper will be be perfect. And you usually find out, centershot was not the perfect place. If you arrow is perfectly spined for the bow, then yes centershot is good. And usually if bareshaft tuning is good, and paper is good, then long range broadhead tuning is next to fine tune. Like out to 60 yards.
Or you can use your tools to find centershot, and modify your bow poundage to match your arrow spine. But most like to have thier bow maxed out.
For instance on my Bowtech liberty, I have to move the rest more towards the riser to get good paper tear and bareshaft tune. Which tells me I need to back down on poundage or live with it.

A.) Set the rest so that the arrow is level and crosses through a line on center with the rest mount (Berger) hole(s) as you look at it from the side.
B.) Check the control cable tension to be sure it's not too tight, it just needs to get the rest to 90* at full draw.
C.) Move the rest as far forward as possible without having riser contact issues; this helps get it out of the way before the fletching gets to it.
D.) Set the center shot (as mentioned).
E.) Shoot the vanes in the cock up position with the UltraRest
F.) If you're still having clearance issues come back for more help but these steps should get you on track.

Good advice. I'm using a QAD Ultra Rest Hunter on my Hoyt Protec, and not have any problems with the 2" Blazer vanes. I would looksomewhere else for the problem. These are a great rest if you can get them set up right.

I shoot a QAD Ultra rest hunter. These guys are giving good advice. The directions on the package or on the QAD website are spot on for setting up that rest. If you follow them preciselymostof the time you won't have any problems. The key is setting the cord at the right length.
The extra launcher is included for a reason. Some bows just work better with the taller launcher. It's simple to swap out launchers, so why not try it and see if it helps?
It's alot easier than messing with the centershot.
It took me some trial and error, but I've got my QAD working great right now with NO contact.
