Champion II Magnetic Elevated Rest Reviews
Use locktite

While these wire flipper rests do provide an improvement for bare bow recurve shooters in terms of accuracy over shooting right off the rug, you would thik that for the amount of mark-up profit they make over about 25 cents worth of production materials they would come up with an indisputably problem free product? But I've went through a few of these already on different bows… read more with one flaw or another and as far as the lock screws coming loose, that's always a problem with something that sustains constant vibration. Once you get it adjusted, back out the screw without moving anything or mark the place and put a small drop of # 2 Locktite in the hole and that should hold, or at least much longer than they normally do.

Surprised to read some of the comments posted. Absolutely no problems with rest and adjusts easily. That's what the hex screws are for. Simple to work with and accurate.

The rest arm creeps out. I thought I needed to just tighten the set screw but never could get it to stay put. I shoot a DAS Dalaa at 55#. Will try something else.

Whilst I believe this is the best AAE/Cavalier rest they have ever made, it still pales in comparison to the Shibuya Ultimate rest. This AAE rest is somewhat of a pain to setup(almost need three hands) and requires a good bit of fine tuning to get right. Once set, I haven't had any issues with it. You have to do some bending in order to get the arrow in the center of the plunger… read more and then bend the wire some more to get it to clear the plunger. This may be the case with all wire rests like this but, I find it to be tedious and needlessly finicky to setup. Still better than all the other AAE offerings.

I purchased the Champion II on the 8th of August 2012. On 21 August 2012, it fell apart while attached to my bow. Easy to set up, easy to adjust. Poor quality and lacks durability. Should come with the following label: "use at your own risk!"

as a target shooter only, who's looking to tighten up my groupings the champion II seems to be a good fit. manufacturer recommends bending wire up slightly to create a "v" shape. i strongly recommend using with a plunger.

I have a question about a prior post/response. In your response, you recommend a plunger. But most wooden recurves have no plunger hole. So what is your recommended setup for a wooden recurve with no plunger? Following is the post/response: Q: Is

12 years ago
On a wooden recurve you will just not have as much adjustment. Using a plunger is like building out your strike plate. It allows you to compensate for arrows that are too weak or too stiff. You would be able to get the same effect if you put a piece of material between the riser and the rest. You would move it away from center and be able to shoot a lighter arrow. The plunger is not necessary, but if you are using a riser that has a plunger bushing it works well with this rest.

Yes, this will work with a longbow. It attaches with an adhesive back so there is no need to drill holes into your riser. I do not know how this compares to the pin arm arrow support system. I have never seen that kind of elevated rest.

i just bought this rest and reading a lot of reviewers saying to bend the end of the arm rest or lower the arm rest to make a V shape. what are the benefits of both options and will doing this damage my feathers? what is recommended
This helps to keep the arrow from sliding off of the rest. Good

This helps to keep the arrow from sliding off of the rest. Good for hunting, but should not be needed for target shooting. If you roll your fingers when drawing it will also push your arrow off the rest. The draw should be changed if that is happening though.
You can bend the wire if you want . and you wont chew the feath

You can bend the wire if you want . and you wont chew the feathers out. Or you just cant the bow when you draw it . Or just shoot of the shelf if you have that option.

You can, but I would not recommend it. You will get better arrow flight with feathers than you will with vanes. The feathers will lay down as they pass over any surface. A vane will deflect off of any surface it come in contact with.
