I certainly WAS a shoot off the shelf kind of guy till I got my Tip.  I figured that Schafer guy might have known something.  Dave shoots off a rest too.  Hmmmmmmmmm, maybe I should give it a try   :saywhat:   That little $2 rest improves arrow flight for me so much it isn't funny.

Really, you know old habits are hard to break. If I can't get it flying perfect I'll give it a go though. First I will try building up the rest a little and leaving a gap between the two rest and side plate so the fletch has a place to ride without hitting as much. Most arrow's flew well today though so I'm not to concerned about fine tuning it.

Steve, I went ahead and re-worked the rest material like I do all my bows I left a small valley between the two and shave down a golf tee to a third of its size and stick behind the riser plate. Arrow's are now flying like bullets.

I'm with Steve O, I've always shot off the shelf but since Paul shot off a rest and so does Dave it just seems like that is how these bows should be shot. When my new one comes in Aug it will have a rest on it.  They definately shoot REAL sweet with the rest!!


SWEET bow Tom!!

That is about as nice as you can get off the shelf   :thumbsup:  .  That will be one great hunting bow.  Have fun!

I've owned a Silvertip for two days what do I know. I'll get one and give it a go. These Kentucky deer are very spooky though. Do you find that rest gives you any noise when your are drawing back? If it does they will turn inside out on a calm day hearing that.

Thanks guys.

Went out today and slid the nock up one serve width and put two twists in the string and it's shooting every arrow perfectly. I can't bring myself to do the flipper now no reason to. Man this is a great bow.

Well, it is Beth and Dave who deserve all the credit here- they're the ones who turn a bit of wood and glass into these works of beauty!

MJB- I believe that it is the Rosewood Dymondwood that they offer.

Unclewhit- all three are 60", and 54, 52 and 50 @ 28".

It doesn't matter how or what you shoot, as long as you hit your target.

LEOPARD

Here's my recurve - 62", 58# @ 28". Fantastic bows!  ;)
