I shoot a prime logic ct5. When I purchased the bow I set it up with a QAD ultrarest. I had it shooting bullet holes through paper in 4 shots. Groups a bareshaft and fletched to 20. Broadheads and field points group together out to 65. Fast forward to last week and I decided I wanted to upgrade to a hamskea hybrid hunter rest with microtune. I tried for a full day to tune this rest to no avail. I was unable to get a bullet hole in paper or broadheads to match field points at even 20. I unbolted the hamskea and reinstalled the QAD and the bow is back to shooting lights out. Anyone got any idea???

Is your qad way out of factory specs to get bullet holes ? If so it may be a bow issue rather than a rest issue.Last edited by Geoff995; 03-22-2020, 06:35 PM.

Vanes may be making contact with the rest.I have an older 2005 Bowtech that I always had a whisker biscuit on it.I switched to the hybrid hunter and my inside vane is making contact with the whale tail.I just ordered some new Axis 5mm arrows and I’m going with a smaller vane to see if it changes anything.

I had problems on my Logic as well.
Mine is tied to the axle, what would happen is the limb would over travel and stretch the spring out, then the rest would go out of time, not stay down at the shot and have bounce back.
I fixed it by putting a different spring, an actual spring, not that twisted piece of wire Hamskea calls a spring, and that has helped; I am looking for a more elegant solution but I just haven't had the time.
Spray the whole shaft, contact can be anywhere on the shaft, not just at the fletching.
