Get ahold of Ken from KD Outdoors in Waterford. Last time I was in there he had one set up on his bow and showed. Pretty cool technology. His name is Ninja on here. Shoot him a PM...

i shot one. i think it needs some improvement. go into kd's and ask to shoot it. see for yourself, then decide.

the problem we had was with the set up...you have to have a bow that has the ability to set the wall...if you have a soft or sponge wall this rest may not work out for you because the arrow must have a special incert in the tip to work with the magnet..what we found was when you would draw back if the wall was not solid or if you creeped forward a bit the arrow would drop to the bottom of the rest..(line it with mole skin) then if you pull it back hard the arrow will ocelate for a few seconds..i never paper tuned one so i am not sure if that could cause a problem...

it is a neat concept but it isnt cheap...i will just stay with what i have so i dont have to maybe find out the hard way that it wasnt the right choice for me

another concern will be the FOC of your arrow (front weight)..because the arrow has to be cut to be even with the front of the rest at full draw this may also change the spine of some peoples arrows...just a FYI
