Bear Weather Rest and riser cut???

Been thinking about changing from off the shelf to a Bear Weather Rest. I've read a number of posts here and elsewhere about a considerable increase in accuracy and arrow tunability with the Weather Rest. A member of our hunting crew just switch his long bow to a weather rest and was shooting quarter sized groups at 15 yards right off the bat. So here's my question, does the cut of the riser matter when installing a weather rest? I'm shooting a Predator Hunter, 46@28. These bows are cut so that when you affix the suppied Velcro rest material to the bow they then measure as cut to center.

You should have no problem with a weather rest on your bow. I would try to get it as close to the shelf as you can, even if you have to cut it down a pinch. You may have to go up or down a bit in point weight but I think you be impressed!
In the beginner's mind there are many possibilities. In the expert's there are few...So the most difficult thing is always to keep your beginner's mind...This is also the real secret of the arts: always be a beginner.  Shunryu Suzuki
