Title: ILF rest set up questions.
Post by: GMASIUK on June 15, 2012, 08:05:00 PM
I just purchased a Das Dalaa and I have a question for you metal riser shooters out there. My bow is set up with a shorty plunger button and a champion II flipper rest.

My question is how do you guys quiet the button face so when the arrow is drawn its quiet for hunting. I was able to use heat shrink wrap on the flipper so that's  good but, I'm not sure what to do with the button face. I would think if I tried to stick felt or something to it, it would just fall off.

I have to say I am very impressed with how nice this bow shoots. I am used to shooting my widows so I'm kind of out of my element with elevated rest set ups. So any advise would be great. Glen

I glued a piece of moleskin on my plunger button...works great!

I use felt on mine, just cut a little bigger than the face of the plunger and fold over to the sides, could also try teflon tape, it may stick better although I haven't had a problem with the felt

Felt works fine

I take a paper hole punch and punch a hole in velcro which gives me a round disk with sticky on the back

Thanks for the ideas guys. I ended up using a small leather punch and a very thin piece of leather that I had on hand. One small drop of super glue on the Berger button and it's whisper quiet now. I'm really liking this Das bow, it is vary accurate. Looks like my other bows may collect dust for awhile. LOL
