Huh. You just form it yourself? does it hold the arrow pretty well?

 

[Msboy]

Epoxy rest for me. When u form it up you get the arrow as close to the center as possible. The arrow sets in well enough that you can shoot it just about anyway but upside down. Lol

 

[B.A.F]

Just like Msboy said in his post. Make sure you sand the riser before you apply the epoxy.

My favorite is the AMS rollers with the guard around it.

That's what I use too...I think it's called the Wave. Never had an issue with mine.

Ya I love that rest cause you can't lose your arrow out of it lol

Yup...and the arrow seems to fly true out if it.

Yea they do!! I've never had a miss shot due to the rest. I shoot a lot of carp and spotted gar in Georgia so I like the precision of it. I really wish we had alligator gar in my lake but we don't.

the only time the arrow was screwed up by the rest is if I accidentally put the arrow in upside down. And I don't think there is a rest out there that would correct that. Except for a whisker biscuit.

 

[redneckbowfisher]

yea but even then i think a whisker buiscut would turn the arrow some sort of way?

It would cause some deflection, but it would be much less noticeable than a hard rest

 

[NuffDaddy]

I tried a whisker biscuit for a while and I had problems with the fiberglass arrow falling through the whiskers.

take some epoxy and rub it in the whiskers and let it set up, bullet proof after that

i use whisker buiscuts and the fin finder... idk why i havent used a wave yet

 

[NuffDaddy]

That's a good idea with the epoxy. But I'd rather use the $20 wave than a $50 whisker biscuit.

 

[kirkland]

Every now and again you can find worn out whisker buiscuts for cheap or from a archery shop, little epoxy and it's good to go .. I wouldn't pay for a new one lol not for a bow fishin rig
