Feather rest. Quiet, very forgiving, amazingly rugged.Also very appropriate on that bow.

I put one of Trap's feather rests on my '60 Grizzly and it worked great.

I will replace the original featherrests on my four 1960 Kodiaks if they ever wear out

I like the feather rest on my 2014 Bear Kodiak,very forgiving and just fits the style of the bow.I have a couple of old old Ben Pearson recurves with a flat shelf that I put a couple of feather rests on that I bought from Trap on here.

The only thing I have on my '59s is feather rests.
