I inherited my dads PSE Bow madness XS a while back and it has a cheap trophy ridge sight on it that i want to replace and a torn up whisker biscuit rest that needs replacing. If you have any suggestions/tips I'd appreciate it. Also need advice on arrows and a good bow string.
If I were to go ut and buy a new rest & sight today it would be: QAD Ultra HD rest found here (http://www.bowhunting.com/shopping/...e2f4cf6-19f4-4b1a-b2b2-133353db83a2&page=1#cs) G5 Optix Xr site (http://www.bowhunting.com/shopping/Products/G5-Optix-Xr-Sight-019-Black-Right-Hand__5348.aspx) I'm currently shooting a Metrao string and have been very happy with it. I've also heard nothing but good things about Vapor Trails.
Thanks man, I'm gonna go with a vaportrail string and the QAD Ultra Rest HD but im not sure about the sight yet, I was thinking about the trophy ridge hitman...?
I got to say I'm not a fan of the ultra rest. Ive had problems with them. I joined the Apache bandwagon and love it. I ve also had trophy ridge drop aways and code red rests and the apache is as good or better than all of them for less money. I've tried a ton of sights and don't have a favorite but I like all metal construction and small pin diameter, right now I'm using a true glow sight. I like winners choice strings but I haven't tried any other after market strings so I don't know if they are better or worse than others.
Apache drop away!!!! There are lots of good sights out there. Set a amount that you feel comfortable on spending, how many pins you want, light or no light, pin diameter, or go with a slider. Then look for one. For arrows just click on my link. There is a promo for 15% off right now. Great price on some super nice arrows.
How reliable is the apache? because i have had other products made by that brand and they are nothing but junk
I've had the Apache for a few months and have shot thousands of arrows through it and it works flawlessly. Its just like the trophy ridge smackdown its easier to tune just as solid and half the price. I've had three QAD rests, two that stopped working and the third is starting to feel a little stiff I called customer service and they told me that there was nothing wrong with the rest and that it supposed to feel that way even though it didn't when I bought it. They were all the lock down models and I think that's what caused them to stick maybe the non lock down models are better IDK I've never used one
Definately consider a Limbdriver and anything SpotHogg, Copper John, or HHA. Personally I love the HHA sliders.
For a rest I definitely have to recommend the QAD HD or Fuse ultra-rest. For sights check out sword, viper, spott hogg, G5. As for the hitman, my brother has one and it is a good sight. Not quite up to par with the brands I mentioned but its half the price. Arrows... I love my carbon express maxima hunters. Very tough arrows.
