Title: Hunting arrow rest for Trad Tech Titan
Post by: Cocklebur on September 15, 2010, 02:28:00 PM
What do you use for a hunting rest? I don't feel like I have a very secure rest using an elevated rest.

Check out the new plunger-style springy by Tim STrickland (Strickland's Archery Adventures). I'm using this rest and love it!  In fact, I'm planning on having a Schafer Silvertip that is being made for me drilled to accept this arrow rest. I may not keep any of the recurves I currently own that can't be retrofitted to accept this rest. The great thing is that the spring arm is bent parallel to the arrow which eliminates the problem old-style springy's had with damaging fletching/vanes. I've been using this one for about a month, several shots per day. The arrow stays on the rest better than it stays on my shelf! Of course the rest is adjustable for a variety of things, including centershot.

it's not adjustable, but I'm loving the Bear Weatherest.

3Rivers, T-3000, flipper or get the one at Lancaster with the hole for berger button.

I just use a flipper II rest and a walmart felt chair pad for a strike plate. The rests are cheap and I carry a spare in my quiver. If your worried you can use the felt pad as a rest and side plate.

I prefer the 2-piece CenterRest by NAP for my ILF bows. It provides easy replacement of the rest part while in the field with no re-adjusting nessesary.
