which launcher type arrow rest?

Hi all,

Will be upgrading my bow in the next few months and intend to get a launcher style arrow rest. I was just wandering if there is anything I should know before choosing one. I have noticed that there are quite a few on the market and don't want to get one that's no good.

Would like to hear your experiences and preferences with arrow rests, do you recommend one with a flat rest or one that has a kink at the end to help hold the arrow in place?

Is there a certain make that is always better than the others,

any help would be much appreciated...

Aren't you in the wrong forum for this question? recurves don't get any more complicated than a magnetic flip rest (usually - I'll leave Barner rests out of it for now...).

Barner

Hi,

I use a Barner, and have done for years. FANTASTIC. Make sure to use a magnetic clicker.
