    Hi Guys
    Looking for some input/ help. I just got my first Mathews A Chill R 70# 28 " lost camo. I have a HHA DS-XL5510/2" sight.
    I am looking for suggestion for the arrow rest and arrow size I shoot a NAP 100 gr spite fire 3 blade mech. I will be all white tail hunting for now
    I am looking at the viper Trail pro V
    I will go back in a week or so to pick up the bow and do the fine tune
    Kirk :sheep:

    Qad makes some great rests. I love mine. I've heard good things about ripcord rests. I would say that Easton 340 spined arrows would work for your setup. That's what I shoot out of my 70# 28" mission ballistic.

    Just put the Vaportrails Limb Driver on my bow and I really like it! I'm new to this but I deff like it better then the whisper biscuit that came on my bow and the others I looked at! Less mechanics to the the unit! Grandpa always said keep it simple!

    I have an NAP Carbon Apache on my Chill R and it works great. Although you can't go wrong with the QAD or the Limbdriver, they're both fine rests.

    Hope you enjoy the bow. I love mine. :tu:
