Bow Tuning Tips/ Ripcord Arrow Rest Installation

[TheTxtreeman]

Hi Kenny, I recently installed the Ripcord code red on my Bear Charge. I set everything up and timed the release so when I hit full draw it disengages. I tested the Fob clearance and had plenty of room on each side. When I shot these I cracked 2 fobs one has a chunk taken out of it the other I was able to put a little superglue on to fix it. I also noticed the cloth on the rest was being torn on the left side? Any help on this I would greatly appreciate. Thanks TX

[TheGumby2000]

thanks man i have been having prolems with my rest and now i know why again thanks!!!

[JamieMG]

Hey Man, Thx so much for having the vid it helped big time! I just installed this rest on my Mathews Switchback XT. After installation I fired a few arrows and they hit pretty darn close form before, the only thing I noticed was that my arrows are going into my block on a slight angle (nock points to the right). How do I adjust this so they fly in straight? My range is 10yds (garage) and I'm sure the arrows will worsen at a longer range. Thanks in advance.

[allamericanhunting]

Hey Kenny, I have a question when you let down will the rest go down or will it stay up like a qad ultra rest ?

Thanks.

[AIMO61]

Kenny..for some reason you never answer my questions :(...but do you prefer ripcord or QAD?? i m using trophy taker and thinking to change..

[grttaxi]

@AIMO61 Sorry I'm busy. If I were you I would stay with the trophy taker, it's what I use

[grttaxi]

@AIMO61 Sorry its hard for me to get to all the questions here and emails. Niether I have a new one from Iron Cross Archery it wont be available for a couple more months.

[therealbasskiller]

Thanks you made that look pretty easy for a layman to follow!!

[backyardhunter99]

what do you think of the QAD ultra rest?

[VaStrutBuster]

Kenny, first thanks for all the great tips and info. I always enjoy your videos. Installed my new Ripcord Code Red today, upgrading from a WB. This is my first drop away since I have been reluctant to part with the 'ol WB. The first five arrow group through the Ripcord made me a believer. Had to stop shooting groups to save my arrows! Excellent arrow rest, great turorial. Keep up the good work! 

[pastorj05]

Thanx Kenny! Brother, you are the man...I have learned a ton from watching your videos...Keep up the good work and God bless!

[vangl34]

Hahaha...I love how you said you don't promote their products but you always keep pointing to your hat with the ripcord logo. It's very eye catching. Great demonstration!!!

[steel7997]

[FSUNole05]

[dmb3428]

[yakkahDotCom]

I loved this video, thanks!

[DEADBYTED]

hey gett4ing the new mathews z7... thinkin bout getting the new ripcord rest anyone tried it out?? worth the money?

[BIGD6625]

@DEADBYTED id say its worth the money. i have the code red on my bowtech and i havnt had a clearance problem yet

[FSUNole05]

@DEADBYTED get the QAD rest, its better!!

[botradov]

hey kenny from watching your videos i have learned more than enough to develope a passion for tuning bows, i picked up a ripcord because it took you less then 10 mins to put it on and that says simple and it does the job, and simple is what you need in the field!

[GLOCKCOPG23]

Does any body know if the Ripcord or QAD rest will fit on the Hoyt Alphamax or Maxxis with any difficulty. I heard that the "split riser" design may present problems. I'm torn between the Maxxis and Mathews Z7. Any opinions? Thanks

[357686]

@GLOCKCOPG23 My friend uses a Ripcord Code Red on his AM 35. I use a QAD on my Firecat. Im switching to Ripcord due to vane clearance issues.

[RV414]

Your tips and videos have been a great help for setting up my new bow. Nice work....and as it happens, I'm using a ripcord and taking a long hard look at FOBs.  Thanks for taking the time to make these vids.

[bandej00]

What is that tool you used to get the rest square with the bow?

[seasonspkz]

do you have a video on how to set up a wisker biscuit rest? i dont think i have mine set up right

[grttaxi]

Yep I have them on all my bows, 2 of them are 2008 modles and 1 is the 09 lovem'

[medugo2205]

I like the ripcord design, but I don't want to pay the big bucks for it haha. Do you know of any cheaper drop away rests that are still as good?

[Sporkinator3]

do you use a ripcord,if not which rest do you use

[Sporkinator3]

I like that your workin on the PSE Nova i recognize it because its the same model of my bow. Nice! keep the tips coming.

[WhitSpurzon]

VERY helpful. Thanks for posting. Looks like I need to order a RipCord for my Bow.

[KCLable]

where is your shop

[pfccaleb]

nice hog on the wall

[IVIassive]

well i use a g5 drop away arrow rest but this video helped alot and they could use the football instead of spliting the string and servering it but thaks

[Jeromerules]

One question Kenny, would you set the nock point 1/8 inch high or just square it up? I've heard for drop aways you just square them up. Is this true?

[Jeromerules]

I bought a ripcord. Thanks Kenny.

[actionsports111]

Great video, great information and everything. I'm pretty sure I'm going with one of these.

[saints177]

was that a pse nova?

[KKyle08]

Why do you care?

[saints177]

wow i was just wonderin i use to have one.... why couldnt you just answer the question???

[sg72792]

if you had a nova, then you would know what they look like so you didn't have to type that

[wrinkle66]

Meeeow ! Cat fight !

[xlasvegan7x]

[floridagobbler]

Ripcord should be paying you money to have this tip on youtube. Great info and easy to follow. Started shooting the fobs 2 days ago and they rock!! Keep the tips coming!!!

[Templarzealot89]
