Just read through this thread. I hate to hear that our product may be the cause of some bad shooting. I will be glad to send you another rest to try if you would like. Just PM me your address. If the new rest works send the old one back so that I can study what might be causing the problem. If neither work send them both back and I will give you a refund. These rests are pricey and I don't want anyone unhappy with their purchase.

Service with a smile....:tu:

Agreed... i am not sure that the rest is the problem but the fact he is willing to send me a new one is top notch! Thank you!

When I adjust mine. I lay the arrow in the rest. Put the arrow in front of the string. Do not attach it to the string. Make sure the arrow is laying flat in the rest. put 2 fingers on it in the rest just to make sure it is not moving in the rest. Set your nock point at this position. That is the true path of the rest. Also make sure you are not using over sized nocks just that little bit of a lip can alter the arrow flight when it hits the rest. If you are using them. Either change to a slim line or file the nock even with the shaft on the side that would contact the rest.

The nock set is WAY to high in these pics.

this might sound stupid but try shooting 2 under and one over, see what that does, then try shooting one over one under, might make a little difference but also i don't know anything!!!

Everytime i start to set a rest i set it as your are stating... this one included... then i adjust up to make it shoot strait... i shoot slim nocks so no issue there... and where i hve the nock set in the picture is as close to strait as i can get the arrow and its still nock high in the target... something on this rest or the way i shoot is making it go azz over tea kettle for some reason!

This does make a difference and its better .. but its not how i shoot.... i can shoot all other rests 3 under and make them shoot bullets... no reason to change how i shoot to make a rest work ... catch my drift?

hope you figure it out,

The way it is in the pics. There will be no way but for it to shoot nock high. It is over a half inch high. It will never shoot straight with the nock starting out that high, no matter how you shoot.

but when i start with the arrow flat on the rest from the start it shoots nock high too... and everyone says raise the nock from that point so i end up where i took the picture...... it shoots nock high no matter what

Duane,The short osprey I have is set at 22 9/16 but I just eye balled it then took it out for some water bottles in the yard,had to move it once!My medium did the same way had to move four times to get it right 22 15/16ths!But it does take putting a little time on the fanman if your not used to shooting down on the riser,but I think the release is very critical in arrow flight I shot very inconsistantly for the first day then got used to the feel and actually shortened my draw length up a hair for a better anchor point! I also was shooting low poundage to start with and my buddy noticed when I shot bad I was twisting the string with my fingers when releasing!I switched to carbon arrows that helped me alot on consistancy!

My Z7 did the same thing just before elk season last year. They called it porposing mine was caused by the knock being pinched between upper point and my release. Not sure if this would be possible in your case or if its what you mean by knock up
