ARROW REST HILL BOWS
« on: October 20, 2011, 03:17:00 PM »
I just read on Pow Wow that Hill bows have the arrow rest 1&1/2" BELOW the center of the bow! Is this measurment correct and if so, what advantage does it give. I've always made my arrow rests 3-4" ABOVE the center of the bow and they shoot ok. ?????????????????

The bottom limb is probably shorter. 3-4" above center is a bunch. I go 1 1/2-2" above center depending on where it feels and shoots best. If 3-4" is working for you, then its working right?

Sorry about the measurment info I gave - " the top limb is 34" long to the rest and the bottom limb is 38" to the rest. So the rest is 2" above center. Still a lot I guess but it does shoot ok.

That should be 1 1/2" ABOVE the center of the bow for the pass Wildcat. Arrow pass layout is for a medium to slightly broken wrist grip.
