(good vid on the VT website). No having to split a bow-cable and draw and re-draw a bazillion times to get the rest timing correct, then try to serve in the tie cord without..." />

Technical Find or ask for all the information on setting up, tuning, and shooting your bow. If it's the technical side of archery, you'll find it here.

I new you would like it.

I would too,but I like my Whammy and it doesn't have the long cable for me to rip my rest off my bow with.[&:]
TFOX You got long cables on your Bow![8D]

You might rip your cams off if you get'em hung up

Dan

A rest is a little more touchy than a cam.I have had my bow string get hung up on tree limbs and even branches on the ground to the point I had to bounce my bow up and down to free it.I would hate to think that was the rest cable.[:-]

Probably has alot to do with the kinds of trees I choose to sit in.I never sit in straight telephone poles.[8D]

I'd prefer no cable at all, but I reckon I'll just have to be extra careful! (assuming I actually get into the woods with it this year).

I love it when a bow sets up and drives tacks right out of the box/off the shelf with just an "eyeball" type setup. Both the GT500 and the Admiral have shot magnificently for me from the word "go". I NEVER dreamed I'd be shooting as well as I am having taken 4 years (plus) off from shooting. And I'm stacking arrows at 20 with VERY LITTLE effort on my part. These Binary cams are the real deal- fast, super easy to tune, pinpoint accurate and very forgiving to shooting form errors (especially torque-unlike single cams).

It took me a few arrows to get my sight dialed in on the Admiral, and then it was all money. The Arrow flight was as pretty as could be @ 290 FPS. Obviously the LD is doing a very good job at a smooth/controlled launch with staying up as long as it does.

When I think 10 years back at what kind of BS I had to go through to get 290 FPS w/a similar weight arrow- 6.25" brace height Darton Mav that drew smoothly but felt and sounded like a 300 MAG going off- yeesh. And that bow was too flipping sensitive. My HCA Force Supreme (6" brace) was a bit better for noise and recoil but it too required some serious form. We've come a LOOOOONNNGGGG way, baby!

Sometimes taking a break helps your shooting.

But I agree,the equipment and the LD along with my whammy are extremely easy to setup and get shooting well.

Thats the troof! I am making it a habit to shoot 20-30 good arrows , and put the bow away. Positive reinforcement. One of my worst habits prior was shooting too many arrows, too often.

I'm done buying bows for the year (barring a lotto win)- But I'd like to give that Spott Hogg rest a try as well in the future- like the concept.

Dan and all, if you draw back with the LD and have to let up, does this seem to make a little noise? Mine seemed to do so, like the arrow rattling or something like that. Or was this just me? At any rate, I am looking forward to seeing the new containment for the LD. Might give it another try with one of those.

Ed, You can see on page 2 the way I have mine setup. Regardless of what I do, draw, let down, or shoot it makes absolutely No noise.
