Lol not trying to convert you I just think it has to do with your centershot being off for that reel.I think if you were using a spinner it would tune in a matter of minutes.Tune your other rest to shoot bullets and then measure how far the arrow is from the riser and then put the fanman on there and measure it.

OK Everyone.... I have this problem solved.... HALFWAY!........I got my Gargod String today and i put it on.... started at center again... raising it 1/8th inch at a time... Got it to shoot bullets with my white fiberglass arrow!!!!.... so i pick up my yellow jacket arrow and ... blam!!! freaking Nock HIGH again! i tried 4 other white fiberglass arrows and they all shoot great.... but both of my yellowjackets are nock high???? WTF? Gargod said his string with the fatter serving might help and it seems to... but the yellow jackets are still all over the place.... this doesnt make sense to me because they are supposed to be stiffer....?????? i think i am almost there but i really want to shoot yellowjackets with this bow... its my bighead bow and those are my favorite arrows.... and all my nocks are slimnocks so its not that!

I never shot my swamp ars without a GG string,but Didn't have to good a luck out of YJ's and went to carbon's,a couple of drawbacks on durability flipping 15lbers or larger in the boat and running over with the boat while stuck in the bottom but make up in the way they shoot, I got about 300 fish a shaft out them so far!I had a bad run with some crooked splash also though,I learned to check your stuff before you just trust that it's good cause it's new,I will buy glass shafts from Jeff next time!Man everyones out to make a dollar and craftsmanship and quality isn't like what made america great,We do have a few top notch people and businesses,the guys you got that rest and string from are a couple!

Ok those aint to bad.If you want to know what I would do I'll tell ya'.I would go to Wally-World and buy a tube of Quicksteel for about $5 and make an epoxy rest.Once you get it on shoot that biotch through paper with line tied to your arrow and tune on your bow and your rest and don't stop until it shoots perfect bulletholes every shot.That will solve all of your problems.
