All my bows I elevate the rest 1/4 of an inch either with leather or a flipper style rest. I like a slight angle downwards between the shelf and the sight window for the arrow to stay in place. This helps if its a windy day and the wind is moving that arrow outwards. I do like thicker velcro as it helps contain the arrow.

Just what I’ve been looking for! Navajo wool is the best, appreciate your video man - thank you.

nice video🤠

Thanks for the information,ill be snagging some for SURE!!

I suck at shortening the bastards 🤠

I don't have many broadheads since I don't hunt. (I think I have about 36 of em 12 each of 100, 125, & 150 grains.) They tear up targets pretty fast . I have a few that need to be sharpened and I was thinking of using my grinder??? I like having them in case I do decide to hunt, or if needed for a zombie apocalypse!!! Hey I will be praying for your shoulder! I know all about bad shoulders and have broken my AC joint in my right shoulder which I never had fixed. Torn rotator cuff tendons in the same shoulder never fixed. Tore 3 or the 4 rotator cuff tendons in my left shoulder 2 completely severed in half ... Oh yeah I know about shoulder pain alright! And they tell me pro-wrestling is fake?! Fixed is a better word for it, not fake. My injuries were real and I'm paying for them now! But hey, I'm alive, breathing, and shooting arrows! God bless ya brother & thanks for the video!

I'd like to buy those VPA broadheads if you don't mind and if you still have them. I used to use Tuffheads but they quit making the Meatheads and went to a style that I do not favor.

Nice buck and a great shot Brad.

Great video showing how to do it the right way.

The truth is in the pudding.

My personal opinion. That style of riser is made more for an elevated rest. It has a wide flat shelf and flat window instead of being radiused for better arrow clearance. It also has the burger hole for threading an adjustable elevated rest. You can build up a section of the rest to get good flight as well. I always get cleaner arrow flight from elevated rests. A threaded rest placed through the burger hole can also allow for fine tuning of arrow flight. No wrong way, too each their own. Enjoy the process.

If you cant the bow, off the shelf is better. As you pivot, the arrow makes wider arc above your knuckle with elevated rest. The greater this arc, the greater the change in point of impact. Many sight shooters use a level to make sure the bow is perfectly level. Shooting with bow vertical, elevated rest allows less arrow interference. I shoot both ways. Target-elevated good. Hunting or hunting practice or 3d shoots-off the shelf or knuckle.

Brad, Hope & Pray for a Speedy Recovery! I've been Shooting & Hunting with Traditional Bows going into my 49th yr. Your question for shooting off the self or elevated rest , is a Trick Question ! LOL !! I've shot ILF riser bows both ways , as long as you are shooting the right spined arrows and nocking point , I see No Difference . It's All in the Individual ! Stay Safe & Healthy ! God Bless !

I actually just built a short mag bow ... I had 35 lb limbs laying around and so since I have been wanting a Bear Super Mag but don't want to spend $450 to buy one ... I made a riser. (I have a video on my channel if you want to see it) Anyway, I made the shelf dead center of the riser & consequently the bow instead of the handle like all my other bows ... And I have to tell ya ... It is my best shooting bow and I love it!!! The arrow sits dead center and I think it's the way to go!!! I don't know why bowyers don't do it, but hey, I'm glad I did! I will pray for you ... I know all about bad shoulders! Mine are destroyed from my pro wrestling days and a bad xar accident. I have had a 3rd degree break of my right AC joint and that's not fun yo live with. (Never had it fixed.) God bless ya and rest that shouler ... But a word of advice ... Keep some motion in it by moving it through some rehab shouler exercises. No weight just some hanging circular motions, maybe see a chiropractor or keniseologist to get the proper exercises.

Nice to have met you at twin oaks. I have a Samick discovery with a nap flipper rest and get great arrow flight. I’ve taken it off and it shots good, but not as good as the elevated rest. Hope your shoulder gets better soon.I’ve been shooting bows a long time and I’ve always get better arrow flight with an elevated rest. I also have a Bear Kodiak with feather rest, shoot wood aluminum and carbon off of it and get great arrow flight.

I can’t give you feed back on your question cause I don’t know either. But I do hope you feel better and get back to it soon.

Fred Bear and many others used to add a toothpick or the smaller end of a chop stick under their calf hair to lessen arrow contact . It works pretty good on my long bow and I’m gonna use it on my recurves next. I’ll be praying for your speedy recovery ❤️‍🩹 God Bless 🙏😇❤️🇺🇸

I like this one thanks

Interesting talk. Thanks for posting

Thank you! I'm a new sub. from the 641.. Life long Trad geek! 3D& hunting. Great tip! Always thumbs up from the 641..

Brother Matt Newton of AIM is as good as gold, he has a passion for getting kids and people into archery while sharing the gospel

Okay ima hsve to go buy these now wow awesome

If you need instructions on installing yarn silencers into a bowstring, maybe you shouldn't be shooting a bow!

👍🏻

nice build. I shoot woods and I tune all my arrows full build. Mostly because I break some arrow when starting the tune process when bare shaft. Plus you have to compensate for tail weight if they are not fletched.

cool hack, does the job and is very cheap too.

I think we can complicate things a little too much, I think archers like the American Indians didn't have their flint arrow heads all the same or arrow shafts exactly the same and I wonder if they were any worse or better than we are today? Having said that, everything you said makes sense. I just don't know how crazy we have to get with it all ... but hey maybe that's why I'm an amateur at best! 🙃 Thanks for sharing and God bless!

Test kits are available at 3 rivers . That way you can test multiple spines , just a friendly suggestion 👍😁 Keep up the great work 💪🫵😊 God Bless you and your family 🙏😇❤️🇺🇸

Thank you...Hambone

Good one, lots to consider for sure!

Thanks!

great shot, and great deer

I like it! 👍🏻😁 journey on friend!

Hi folks! You may notice, I've made a little change to my channel. You'll now find me @Traditional Archery Journey here on RUclips. Thanks for being a subscriber to my channel and hanging out with me from time to time.

I love it tks! I have several l need to do that!

Simplify & Amplified thanks man! You learn something every time i pick up my recurve! Im 62 👍🇺🇸

I subscribe a while ago and I had to subscribe again right now.

Nice 👍 thanks for sharing squidward’s tip! 👍😁😂🤣😂

Genius!

Hope to pick some of those up at this years Tennessee classic.

Cool video, I see some Twin Oaks trophies hanging up.

That's an awesome way to do it ... thanks for the share!!!

The double anchor . Finger in repeatable spot on face and tip of feather to nose . Saw that first with Rick Welch . Great video !!

Thank you very much for this video. It's very refreshing to watch someone as good as you are who has been doing it as long as you have be so humble about himself. It helps people that are fairly new to archery who speaking for myself, can't ever have great form due to numerous injuries to my shoulders and elbows. I can't even straighten out either of my arms in a lockout position. Anyway, as bad as my form is the best I can do is to repeat my form as bad as it is the same way to get consistent shots. I think this would help my anchor point once I get into fletching my own arrows. Thank you & God bless!

Fine instruction and recommendations...Thank you Brad... My arrow setup...from nock throat to feather base at shaft is approximately 2.0"s...our individual structures dictate the best positioning of the feather. An exercise that I practice: draw to anchor & touch nose...holding with rhomboids...maintaining a relaxed forearm....release back tension in a controlled manner where the feather moves from the nose perhaps an 1/8"...then reset to nose using only rhomboids...work to build up to being able to repeat this routine 3 to 4 times...may release the arrow after the 2nd or 3rd time while repeating this exercise....may let down... enhanced control is the objective.

I've never thought about using the fletching in that way but it makes complete sense. I'm definitely going to play around with this. Thanks for the tip Uncle Brad!!

Great idea, thanks for posting it.
