I will be looking into trying to move the rest tommorow when I shoot. I really didnt want to start moving stuff when my shoulders werent "fresh" if ya know what I mean! I shot enough just in the walk back method/field tip grouping!

I have the QAD LD it has micro adjustments, it is actually sitting between adjustments right now! I just didnt want to chance it and take it all out of whack after the time I have been having all year but I guess I can always move it right back, HOPEFULLY haha!!

I will update tommorow night!!

One more thing, I am certain I can get the Fixed Heads flying very similiar in left/right adjustment but I really dont know if I want to change the whole up/down adjustments, especially since I had one hell of a time trying to get the rest timed to begin with!!
I dont know if you remember all the timing issues I was having but I finally TIED IT IN(stupid clamp) myself and adjusted it until it was dropping perfect and it is FINALLY doing so, I really hate to move it and get right back to step one!!! Is there another option or am I fighting a losing battle??

OK GUYS.....

I went back out yesterday and shot. I started off with getting my 40-50 yrd pins dialed in. In about ten minutes time I was nailing centers at 40 and then within an inch or so around 50! This was with Field Tips and Rages.
I then moved up to 20 in ten yard increments and was shooting some of the best arrows I have shot all year!!

This is the goofy part, I put on the Slick Tricks and was nailing bullseyes at 20 with 20yrd pin! I stepped back to 30 and was maybe 3"- 4" low with 30yrd pin?

I am done stressing over it. I plan on using the rages and will not be shooting past 25yrds anyway but just wanted to fill you guys in on the fact I think ALOT of my problems were ME!! I am finally getting comfortable with my anchor point and everything is just falling in place!!

Could I get it closer? Well Yeah I believe I could, but I am happy now but I do believe I learned alot for future set-ups on my bows!!

I wanted to say Thank You to all who have tried to help me through my shooting these past couple weeks!!
