What rest went here?
« on: November 09, 2008, 06:05:00 PM »
Do any of you guy's have any idea what rest may have been mounted here? It had to be early sixties. I'm hoping to replace the rest, if I cant find it I hope it can be repaired. thanks greg

Greg.. Looks like a vintage aftermarket rest by Larry Walsh called a D.S.A.R. disappearing shelf arrow rest. Thats my best guess, I have three sizes. let me know what size you have and I will send you one...Mike

What kind of bow is that?  I'd be tempted to cover the holes up with an aftermarket strike plate and install a rug rest, feather rest or maybe one of these

Thanks every one for all input and gracious offers. I ran out to the fall meeting of some smelly bowhunters right after I posted. We must be smelly or something, no elk down yet this year for this bunch. Thank goodness for late season.  Anyhow, your offers are very kind, thanks. I didn't even think of posting the size of the notch for the original rest. It's 1" wide and about 1/2" tall, Doc if this sounds like your flipper-mag jobbie you speak of I'd love to get it from you.   Thanks greg

Kruse, all I know right now for sure (total newbie!) is it's very early 60's and very  Special . I really want to get this one to doc to look at.  Hey doc would some of my feather rests make a good   trade? How many... Red or green?   greg
