Question about rest wear
« on: December 06, 2015, 07:55:00 AM »
I shoot a Black Widow off the shelf with the stick on felt rest. I get great flight and it shoots good but my rest on the side part of the window, on the front edge wears out. Any ideas?

Have you tried rotating your nock, very small move is all you need.

The closer to the belly of the bow (the side toward you)the stiffer the arrow will be. The closer to the back of the bow (the side away from you)the weaker the arrow will be.You could reduce  point weight to stiffen the arrow a bit.
