Title: Rest comparison?
Post by: COLongbow on August 11, 2011, 05:58:00 PM
I'm currently using a Bear Weatherest on my PCH, and I really like the arrow flight I'm getting. Seems like a good rest and the arrow stays on the flipper arm during draw quite well, to my surprise. No complaints about it at all.

Been looking also at the Neet Pro Rest. Anybody use them, and if so what's your opinion of them? Does the metal sideplate arm make too much of a riser build-out? I'm sure there will be some noise associated with a carbon arrow rubbing on the metal of the rest during draw, but that's what they make moleskin for.

Thanks in advance for your responses!

Shrink tubing on metal rod/bar will eliminate noise.

I put a Neet pro rest on my Morrison and like it very well. It will shoot the heavier spined set up I had set up for it but bare shaft shooting told the true story. I needed to lighten up the spine a bit.

Just asking........

Why do you guys use rests on bows that can be shot off of the shelf?

you can shoot heavier spine arrows with plastic vanes instead of feathers.
