elevated rest and tiller

[JDunlap]

I shoot 3 under after yrs of shooting split. all my bows are tillered for split. Can I correct some of the tiller problem by going to an elevated rest?

What problems exactly are you seeing?

[JDunlap]

Thanks for your response Steve. My recurve is significantly noisier and it shoots a little left compared to split.

I have read that raising the nock point helps. In effect using aa evaluated rest will have the same results.

[JDunlap]

you would think that since your fingers are closer to where they would be when drawing split -- it would alleviate some of the problem. thanks for your response M60gunner.

FYI: I went ahead and installed a bear weather rest, raising the position of my fingers to approximately where they would be if I was shooting split finger, and it quieted my recurve down real well. thanks

Ever bow I own except my black widow kb shoots quieter split than 3 under. Probably cause I ordered it tillered for 3 under

When I used to shoot three under I liked using an elevated rest, and the cheap plastic screw-in type work surprisingly well.

Since I used to shoot split all my bows are tiller that way. However, when I installed a bear weather rest, and thus raised the arrow shaft and my fingers higher, my RER quieted down and sounds almost as quiet as a longbow again. However, I did have to go to a weaker shaft, because the weather rest is quite a bit thicker than a regular leather strike plate.
