No thanks, Not my cup of tea.[:'(]

Have one at the local shop. Been there for a few years now. Uses razor blades as fletch and shoots a little bolt like BPS said.

Not a better mousetrap IMO.

Is that the same one that was there when Paul owned the place? If so it's been there for more than a few years. It was there when I bought my bow from him in 2000.

I wasn't overly impressed with it either, nor was he from what I could I tell. I just think he had it there for display. I don't ever remember him trying to sell it to anyone. I think it has a draw lock as well doesn't it? Maybe not, I know the release was a part of the bow though.

I already have one. Love it. It doesn't have a draw lock, it works just like any other compound bow. It eliminates torquing right and left. Just wondering what you guys thought of it.

Yeah Paul....one and the same. One of my chefs told me his father bought one when Paul first got them in...and he only got 2 in I think.

They've been there a long time.

Cap...I think they're weird but if you like it and can shoot it than I think that's great.

Ever kill anything with it?

Yes I have got 4 doe and one 6 point,first archery buck all while hunting from the ground. Been using accurest for 4 years. I am at 45Lb. draw weight.

RE: Anyone heard of Accu rest bows
 

pardon me but they are avalable with a draw lock because a handicap friend of mine uses one.

RE: Anyone heard of Accu rest bows
 

Yes, they are. The launch tube makes them illegal here.

The accurest is not a draw lock. That outfit you are talking about is on the east coast somewhere.
The accurest does not and never has held a draw. There is a handicapped engineer I know that modified it cause he's in a wheel chair. His warranty is no good anymore but he's happy now.
You must hold the draw with the accurest.
