TITAN “Pretensioned Blade”ARROW REST
CONCEPT and INSTRUCTIONS
Designed by Leigh Cornish
In competition archery the blade rest is by far the most popular.
It is extremely difficult and usually impossible to achieve total vane clearance with a standard
blade rest irrespective of the manufacturer and quality of the rest. Some excellent archers say this
does not matter but I believe it does matter. The contact is caused by the blade rebounding and
hitting the vanes and usually moving the nocking point does not help.
The TITAN “Pretensioned Blade” ARROW REST solves this problem by eliminating rebound.
This rest is designed to be smooth and precise to adjust with large threads and dovetails.
The Teflon coated quick change blades are released by simply loosening the blade screws.
Advantages:
Elimination of vane contact on blade rebound.
Elimination of shaft judder and bounce when drawing the bow.
Probable elimination of blade fatigue breakages caused by blade flex reversal.
Setup :
All bows have different nock travel dependant on cam design etc. so trial and error is the normal
procedure.
Start with a nock point level with rest, check for paper tear, a 1cm or 2cm high tear is optimum,
gives stability and direction to the shaft when shot, a bullet hole is unstable and not optimum.
Also check for vane clearance using talcum powder on the vanes, a small touch on the back of
the vanes is OK, any touch to the front of the vanes hits hard and is not OK.
I recommend the nock point start at square and end up no more than 4mm above square, there
are some bows that are badly designed and cannot be tuned successfully. Cable changes can
also reduce paper tears.
