offset with prong rest

Can a 4 degree offset be used with a prong rest if you use feathers? The reason I threw 4 degree out there is this seems to be a standard variation among online retailers.

Probably depends on your arrow diameter more than anything else.

RE: offset with prong rest

what type of rest do most of you hunt only guys use with your helical or offset. I read alot of people are using helical but not that many are using drop away. What are you using?

RE: offset with prong rest

I used to shoot a prong style rest. I bought a Trophy Taker Shakey Hunter and was blown away. The reason a drop away is better is because you can use helical vanes. These stabilize your vanes way better than straight vanes. I would buy a drop away rest if I were you. At first I was skeptical, but now I am glad I switched.
