Flipper rest or off the shelf

fat bear rug and cut away close to the riser for a feather trough!

I shoot all bows with an elevated rest. Even if the shelf of a bow is highly radiused to reduce contact it doesn't address that shooting off the shelf gives us almost no clearance. The forgiveness a rest offers makes it more valuable to hunters than field archers in my opinion. For less than $5 for a stick on rest every archer should at least try one.

Rests here for about 40 years.

Tooth Brush rest for me.

I shoot off the shelf. But a flipper rest or a Bear Weatherest would be nice for hunting in foul weather with plastic vanes.

Getting ready to try a rest again.  How often do elevated rests need to be replaced?

Getting ready to try a rest again.  How long doe elevated rests need to be replaced?

Flipper rest on my recurves, shelf for the longbows. Works for me.

I shoot everything from off the shelf rugs to sealskin Morrison to flippers. I bought a Root Gamemaster that came with a flipper and left it on and it shot great. I sold the bow and the new owner continues to shoot it like that. I also like feather rests (TRAP)too.

Shelf!

[PA Bones]

I shoot all my recurves off the Shelf

Off the shelf for me too.

Off the self on my straight limbed longbows, and toothbrush rest on the others!

Off the shelf on most, but I do have a "rain bow" that I put together with an elevated rest, 4-fletch helical plastic vanes, all plastic "accessories" on the bow such as string silencers and it shoots fantastic.
