Im finishing up this bow got the overlays on and knocks cut in, I was going to start moving the rest height down to 1 in. To 3/4 in. above center I was wondering where you guys put the apex of the rest crown , towards the belly , center or towards the back ? In other words where the arrow shaft contacts the rest ? Im curious where you guys put your rest above center the top line in the pic is 1 in. above center and I was going to start there and shoot the bow and go from there ? [attachment=1]

The crown should be right above the deepest part of the throat of the grip.

Thanks Roy great article, good to know will hold off then tell I deepen that handle a bit more , I'm realy starting to see the value on these glass bows making small adjustments on carving the handle & rest over many arrows ,I been doing that on the forward handle bow and it is shooting better & better !

Yupper that is a good article.

Read the arrow tuning part too.

I agree with Roy, OMG did I just say that???

I start about 1.125 above center, and the crown is higher above the low part of grip. Then I also crown the side plate a bit, not too sure how necessary is , because the old factory bows were flat shelf and side plate.

The arrow flexes away from the side plate anyway, but I feel better doing it.

I agree with Roy, OMG did I just say that???

Bout time ya smarten up , Son..

Oh Man scary were all playing well together today...lol ok good Kenny I'm real close to that height now , I'm going slow on the carving on this one sense I opted for a small petit handle getting my hand lined up at the right point I really like the light nimble feel of this R/D

Well got the tips smoothed out and the bow strung up , shot about 60 arrows so far ,carved on the apex of the crown its just a little behind center towards the string but is shooting sweet there good arrow flight , Im a little hesitent to move it back any more due to great arrow flight do you guys have any thoughts ?? [attachment=1,msg2795727][attachment=2,msg2795727][attachment=3,msg2795727]

If its shooting good for you, don't change it!! LOL 

You can always carve on it again later if you decide to....

Ya what Kenny said.

Heck it's only a gwass bow..

Yea Roy when you see the chrono numbers with the modified narrow front profile thats less mass then the standard you well be saying gwass 🤧

I got a little over 300 arrows in the last 2 days but starting to get this thing tuned I built up a HB/RN arrow rest that Shreed would be proud of and it did improve arrow flight more, somthing to being right over the deepest part of the handle , Im going to drop arrow spine Im still to stiff but could hunt with these if I had to thats my best 10 yard group before the arrow rest they where in a 8 in. group ![attachment=1][attachment=2]

 

It's getting there Kenny I'm obsessed with getting perfect arrow flight with this bow the ones that fly the best out of it ,is some old heavy cedar arrows I bought 30 years ago I can't remember what spine they are and I don't have a spine tester but they come off with zero wiggle and fly like darts , but will have it dialed in before hunting season !

10 yard group?

Heck that's my 30 yards group..

Yea, but you have to shoot more than one arrow to call it a group. 

Well I did learn a new term --- Smarten up -----
