Title: sell me on a new rest....
Post by: earlmarne on February 24, 2013, 10:21:56 PM: well i am itching for something new.my tt smackdown pro seems to be getting fletching contact.easy fix i know.but it has sparked my shopping.i really dont like the idea of serving a rest into my cables so i think i want to stick with limb driven rests.
can i gain anything from any of the new rests out besides 100 bucks or more lighter wallet?
i really dont have any gripes with my tt rest besides getting contact.

Post by: earlmarne on February 25, 2013, 08:36:53 PM: i keep my cord tight as all get out.and my reast and rig was tuned by one of the best.i think i just need to start running cock vane out.idk i just want some new stuff.i think its time for a new bow.i really do hate the idea of a rest running off of my cables like the qad does though.i will probably set up another tt or maybe a limbdriver prov

Post by: demontang on February 25, 2013, 08:45:39 PM: Im running my tt off my up cable. But I dont like the long rope running to my lower limbs, id put the money in a new bow then if you have a old one.
