If it deviates from the perfect route, it pushes the nock of the arrow to the side. Perfect nock travel means the nock moves level (up and down) and on-line (not wavering to the side) as it streaks forward. This is probably the main reason some bows don't tune with drop-away rests. If you are shooting a bow that doesn't have perfect nock travel, you will not be able to tune the bow with a drop-away rest. This is because the rest arm has inertia and it takes a split second for the rest to start moving out of the way when the string is released.
#Best drop away arrow rest for target shooting full#
I have found that if the rest hits full height with the string about an inch short of full draw, the rest will stay upright and help to stabilize the arrow for several inches of the arrow's forward travel. You will accomplish this most easily by following the manufacturer's directions when setting up the rest. Arrows Need Contact for StabilityĮxperts who use high-speed cameras tell me a drop-away rest should ideally contact the arrow for six or seven inches of its forward travel in order to stabilize the arrow against the incredible acceleration it undergoes as the string whips forward. Based on my own experiences and what I have learned from experts, here is what I have been able to conclude about arrow flight with drop-away rests. Barner was making them for target shooters long before that. I've shot drop-away rests since they first surfaced on the hunting market around 1996 or so.
