Default RE: Gap between prongs

When I set up a prong rest I try to set the arrow on the rest so there is approximately 1/3 of the arrow over the gap. For tension I will set the arrow on the rest an gradually reduce the pressure until the rest starts to drop. I will then apply about 1/8 to 1/4 turn on the tension and tighten down the screw.
