RE: my new drop away rest
Thats really weird, I have no idea why it would bend. Obviously your arrow is slamming into it for some reason. I have had mine for a year without so much as an adjustment done to to it. I had a Boddooodle prior to it and my shooting improved with the drop zone. I shot my first 3D tourney last week and shot a 283 out of a possible 300. Not bad for a rookie huh ? Sounds like it wasnt set up properly. Hope you give it a chance cause they really work good.
I wouldnt recommend the bisquit, the whole idea is to have nothing come in contact with your fletching as it leaves the bow.

I find it kind of funny that people are saying that they have never heard anything bad about TR products. I guess yall aren't reading enough or listening at the pro shops enough.
I have never heard of a company have as many problems with their products as TR has with theirs. Here are five (including myself), seven if you count all three from Mike, that have either experianced problems themselves or seen someone else have problems with this rest and their other products. That's way too many for me to spend my money on such a product. Sure they have a great warrenty now but what's a great warrenty worth if you are always using it and never get to use the product? Just like a truck with a lifetime warrenty. It aint worth squat if the truck is always in the shop for warrenty work and you never get to drive it.

You make it sound as if TR can't put out a good product??? I certainly think that judging by the very impressive number of folks who are swearing BY the DZ,... not AT the DZ, speaks loudly about how effective this rest is. It is obvious on many of the forums that the DZ is quickly establishing itself as the most popular fallaway. Many serious bowhunters are loving this quality rest. It does make since that by shear volume sold that you will have some product that isn't perfect and may need some attention. As with ANY product that sells many thousands of units there will be some that need tweaking because of one reason or another. I can't think of a single newer product ever posted on the boards that didn't have atleast a few units that needed some minor work or modifications. The fact is, that the DZ is an excellent rest that works. IF ANYONE receives one that doesn't, simply send it back and TR will issue you a new product or a refund.

IMO if you market your product with 5 and 7 page adds and talk about how this product will revolutionize the archery world, etc... etc... a whole bunch of people will buy them regardles of how they work or hold up.

RE: my new drop away rest
I am with you Big Bulls with this one,I have heard and seen many with problems.
Remember that Corn guy is a pumper ,he gets a couple of free items and pumps and attacks other products all over the net,not much credibility there and everyone knows it.
It is amazing how huge money in advertising will draw people to buy even if the product is subpar.
The worst kind of pumper is a UNPAID Pumper.[:'(]
