This rest has peaked my interest in the past. My only concern is that the cord might get caught on something in a hunting situation. Has anyone had any experience w/ this? I know it's possible on a regular drop away also.. but I've never had an issue to date.
Funny you ask this......Here is what happened to me on Sunday morning.
Sitting in my stand....Doe with two buck fawns come along.....I reach slowly to get the bow off the bow holder on my stand while keeping an eye on the doe.....I somehow catch my thumb on the pull up cord on my LD, and the cord pulled thru the button on the limb!
So...the rest is up and with shooting vanes and not feathers I didnt feel good about even taking a 20 yard shot not knowing how badly the fletch contact would effect the arrow flight!
But....not the LD's fault! I guess I just didnt do a good enough job when I melted the cord up top to form the "ball" so that it wouldnt pull out of the button. I now have a GOOD melt job on the cord and hopefully wont have that happen again!
I also have the shoot thru prongs but havent had time to put them on and sight back in and re-tune. If I would have had the shoot thru prongs on I would have been ok!
