I really can't tell from the photo but I believe your drop a way has to be connected to the cable that pulls down on the lower part of your bow.

 

Sounds like the timing on your drop away is off, probably resulting in fletching contact. Typically, you want the rest to rise/fall in the last few inches of your draw cycle. If you can't adjust the length of the string yourself, you'll need to get into a bow shop, but it should be a quick fix.

 

as fitz said rest timing is most likely off. That drop away cord looks really loose at least 3 inches of slop which will cause the rest not to fully raise that cable slide only moves 3-5 inchs total. It has a bolt on that slide loosen it and pull the cord through until its tight then pull approx 1/2 inch towards the rest. Start there then check for fletching contact with foot spray or lip stick. If you have contact loosen the bolt and loosen the cord 1/2 inch again. Should be easy to fix the goal of a drop away is to drop and clear the arrow at the last possible momment. If your unsure I'm in IL outside of chicago be glad to lend a hand or run it by a local proshop if you go proshop way I'd really consider having that cord served into the cable so this never happens again.

 

Take it in to a shop. As far as i know the rest string needs to be tied into the down cable. I have never seen it done like in your pucs. Goos luck

 

Mine did the same thing last year....just get it to a shop and they can fix it. Actually they just replaced mine, the spring inside the rest was messed up. Mine is a rip cord. Good luck!

 

Michael - some of the older dropaway rests did use a clip/bracket to attach the rest to the cable of the bow, which is what you're seeing in his photos.

The best advice is to get it into your local shop and have a professional look at it. I'm not sure why you took your cable slide off, but my guess is the same as everyone else. Something isn't right with the timing of your rest falling away when you shoot. It should be a relatively easy fix.

 

i took the cable slide off because it sounded like there was some grit under it and thanks i'm gonna try out that lipstick trick just a little odd that i can be shooting so far off but will see what i can do today

 

good luck, and from past experience, never change anything the night before you plan on hunting. It never fails that something goes wrong. I hope it works out for you, and your propably not missing much in the stands right now with this summer like weather. I've only been hearing about morning movement from others that have been going out.

 

well i think i fixed it.. i tightened the cord but the rest is not coming as high as it used to although im shooting perfect out to 25 yards should i just leave it?

 

Ty JZ i did not know that.

 

How consistent are your groupings? The best way to tell if it’s good is to paper tune it.

 

there beautiful

 

its good to go when i took of the clip i pulled some cord out of it as the nut was lose so i adjusted and tightened it and i'm basically back where i was.. too bad i missed my hunt now its beautiful out

 

Spare bow... pick up something used that you can have as back-up.

 

i could've used my brothers but im trying to get accustomed to this one being i just got it this summer and i know if i went out i would have had a nice deer come in that i just wouldn't be comfortable with this shot

 

Looks to me like you may have your cables in the slide the wrong way the cables should cross on most bows below the slide not above it.

and not to mention that your drop away will drop faster tied to your downward cable , you can take your draw coard for your rest and tie it to your downward cable just like you tie in your D-Loop with the same knot then adjust the coard for propper timing at the rest .
