Hey folks, I've been experiencing erratic arrow flight for some time now, made a bunch of adjustments according to the Easton Tuning Guide and never could get it right. I have decided that it's fletching contact with my QAD Hunter rest, have heard some say the rest is too slow for my Black Ice, but other reviews say it's not, more likely a timing/tuning issue. So, this morning, I stopped by Academy and picked up a bow square and a few other tools because today, I plan to get it right. First thing I noticed was my nocking point was dead on square (after having three different shops adjust my rest, they never touched the nocking point) and the Easton Tuning guide says it should be about 1/4" above square. Fixed that. Center shot is right, or very close, will fine tune that when I start shooting.
Now my problem is that the felt for my QAD came off a while back and since I didn't have time to order new, and nobody around me had any, I used Vetwrap to silence the launcher, it worked AND showed me where my blazers were contacting (which is why I switched to shorter full length vanes and thought I had that solved). I have taken that off and tried to get something else to work, athletic tape doesn't quiet it down enough for me, and I can't figure anything else out at the moment. Does anybody know of an archery shop near Temple that might carry the right felt for the QAD rests? I tried calling The Outhouse, but no answer, probably because they don't open until 10, I'll try again soon, but in the mean time, any ideas? I KNOW Peacocks wouldn't have it, even if he hadn't closed, he doesn't carry QAD, nor any accessories for them, I've asked numerous times in the past.
