Bear Archery Compound Bow 2004 - Manual (Page 28)

28
Before you can safely and
effectively shoot your bow, a
number of specific initial bow
setup steps must be taken. These
steps can be performed on your
own, if your level of expertise is
adequate. Or, your local archery
dealer can help you.
These are initial setup steps
only. Later, fine tuning (see Basic
Tuning) may be required.
Arrow Rest Selection
Arrow rest selection is best
determined by shooting style.
If you shoot with a mechanical
release, you will be best served
with a “Shoot-Through” type
arrow rest. If you elect to shoot in
the traditional manner with your
fingers, a “Shoot-Around” type
rest will work best for you.
Arrow Rest Installation & Setup
Arrow rests should be
installed according to manu-
facturer specifications. Then,
the rest should be adjusted for
proper, initial “Centershot” posi-
tion. This initial rest position
setup is quite different, depend-
ing on whether you have elected
to shoot with fingers or with a
mechanical release. See the fol-
lowing drawings to determine
which is initially correct for you.
