    Try our newest sponsor - Hardcore Archery. He's an APA dealer - he should carry (or can get) the Twister.

    I use the Qad Ultra hd. Very much recommended for high speed bows. My trusty back up in the Whisker B. I shoot Pse Axe 6 as well Ike. You need to contact QAD, they will send u out the updated spacers and hardware that u need to set up your center shot. Last time I checked QAD will send u what u need at no charge. The speed bows like ours plus the Matthews and bowtech require these additional parts. Once u have that on tuning is very easy. U'll find it will shoot bullet holes through paper. Thats what we've found at our shop. We all shoot PSE. Omen, Dream Season and Axe. they all have Qad HD's and they all fly true from 20-80 yards.[IMG]file:///C:/DOCUME%7E1/ADMINI%7E1/LOCALS%7E1/Temp/moz-screenshot-2.png[/IMG]

    Re: What type of arrow rest do you use?

    Never had the urge to nock an arrow and carry my bow upside down. Too dangerous to walk/crawl around with them blades on.
    IMO the whisker biscuit costs you speed and can disguise a poorly tuned rest that takes energy out of the arrow, as well as damage fletch over time.
    I use a limb driver and it absolutely gets out of the way of the arrow. I have tried QAD and Trophy taker, didn't like them as much and had flight problems. Maybe the way I was setting up these rests on my APA Boa, but I always had fletch contact. Some reading pointed to the possibility of rest bounce off the shelf making contact but as soon as I had the Limb driver on I had no problems. Paid $100 for the limb driver.

    whisker biscuit has worked well for me . I like to still hunt and not have my arrow flopping around.
