Best elevated rest for hunting?

Bear weather rest for all my bows, no failures and good for all weather

Is anyone shooting off the shelf but using a plunger to manipulate center shot for tuning purposes? Does this work?

I was doing that all last week.  It was very nice.  I could pretty much pick whatever arrow I wanted to shoot and then just adjust the strike plate accordingly.  

I will try to show you someone a guy shows me on a *********** tomorrow evening.  he has to screws that you screw into the holes, the first one adjusts the center shot, once you get that dialed in, the second one secures the first one preventing it from moving, no matter what.  It's all covered up by a piece of velcro that slides in and out as you adjust the center shot.

I've been shooting a fuzzy velcro rest on the shelf with a plunger button for years. Best of both worlds as far as I'm concerned. I loosely cover the button with a thin piece of leather which doesn't interfer with the function of the plunger.

I prefer the T-300 hunter.

I doubt that they are made any longer, but when I shot with an elevated rest, I used a Jennings. It was similar to a weather rest in material, but had a longer finger with an upturned tip and a plunger hole. I'm sure there are a few sitting around somewhere....

Springy rest is a good option. It's you plunger and elevated rest in one!

Buckeye, an accutune is a good option for adjusting center shot while shooting off the shelf.

Loosen the set screw, and turn the knob to move center shot. No spring in there, just a bomb-proof adjustable side plate.

BuckeyeBH,
Yes, it works very well on risers cut well past center such as metal ILF's and takes some of the trial and error out of having to use extra thick sideplate materials such as furniture pads. My hunting rig is a Morrison Phoenix XD shot off the shelf with sealskin and a shorty plunger.

Thanks for answering my question boys. Olddog I too am currently shooting a morrisson Phoenix riser. I think I'll give this a shot since I've got all summer to play with it.

Homemade toothbrush elevated rest -it's indestructible. I made them on Samick Sage and Pearson Hunter

Trap's feather rests are my favorites anymore, and I've shot a bunch of the finger types.
