Title: Black Widow / Wilson Bros Rest?
Post by: ISP 5353 on February 03, 2015, 06:23:00 PM

Just found a beautiful Black Widow / Wilson Brothers Model 101 from 1965.  Bow is in beautiful shape.  It has no rest on it.  What would you recommend?  I was thinking a brush rest like the one 3 Rivers is selling.  Thanks!

ISP5353:

I shoot a Wilson Bros H-101 about 95% of the time and I make my own period type feather rest similar to the original rest that they came out with.I shoot a bunch of arrows and my rest has held up for over two years now.
I'm not sure what brush rest 3Rivers is selling but I'm sure it would work also.

Regards,Ray

Thanks Ray.  Do you have any pictures of the feather rest you made?
