Hi there im setting up a hoyt gamemaster 2 as my wet weather bow and want to use carbon arrows with vanes as a nice easy set up for my winter deer buster. What elevated rest would be the best? i love simple and strong no wizzbang flashy crap.

I have an NAP Centerest Flipper on my GM2.  Very sturdy and easy to tune.  Works well with 4" vanes.  Enjoy.

Cheers mate just the info I'm looking for, I'll have a look at them.  Any other people out there using elevated rests with vanes let us know what u are using.

The simple Bear weather rest worked great on my Dorado.

Nice so a Hoyt hunter stick on rest should work as well.

stick-on rests will need a plunger also. thee best rest I have ever used on my Gamemaster's is the NAP centerrest flipper.........

I use stick on brush rests and Neet pro rests, both stick on. For the Neet I just bend the metal if I show up underspined. For the brush rest I just stick velcro or leather over it. Your Hoyt is probably set up for a plunger though and it probably makes tuning a breeze.

I use these old golden Eagle rests or the Brush rests, both work great with my 41/2" vanes.fly like darts out of my Silvertip's.      :thumbsup:

Has anyone used the plain nap center rest the one without the flipper?

I have one that i use on one of my Titans, it's a good no nonsense tough rest. Easy to tune buy a spare end for it.

Nice thanks heaps mate I think I will go with the one without the flipper it just looks a bit more durable and no nonsense as you said. I'll write a little review on my set up and tuning when I get it all together.
