It's pulling up on your control cable. Trophy Taker's have pretty stiff springs so it's tough to get it all back. Try doing it so the rest comes up a half inch or less before you come to full draw.

For the best letoff and wall switch to a rest that doesn't pull on your cables. Vaportrail Limbdriver, G5 Expert Pro, or the Trophy Taker Smackdown.

I just put a TT on my GT500 works ok not a lot of valley on that bow but I don't think it's due to the rest I am going to twist the cables a few times

I truly believe this style of rest is the wave of the future. I see no drawbacks to the design at all, only positives.

Think about it for a minute... Better guidance due to longer contact, which is necessary for bows without level nock travel. Yet, due to its design it absolutely ensures complete clearance because since it's attached to the limb or up cable there is no way the bow can reach brace height without the rest being pulled into the down position. Add in the fact that there is absolutley no effect on timing because the cable is slack at full draw and it's easy to see this style is superior to others.

I predict that nearly every company in the arrow rest business will be offering this style in the near future. Maybe I've been blinded by it's benefits, but I fail to see any drawbacks...

I agree with everyone. Its just to tight. You would be better with it coming up late over too early.
You can time the bow with the rest and get back most of the letoff.
I quit using the TT because of the same problem.

[Randy D]

I pretty much agree with Don. I don't shoot drop away rests anymore, but if I did it would be limb driven.

Are the new G5 rests available yet?

[BlindBuck]

I don't think so, but they should be arriving soon from what I've been told.

Totally agree with you boys Limbdriven is the way to go!! I love mine even more thanks to LakeinX2 for telling me how to run my Limbdriver off the bottom limb. Buzz is gone from cord vibrating on cable rod and I don't see the cord moving in windy conditions.

I moved the string up some on my cable and got some of the valley back.I think the guy at the bow shop put to much tension on it.I am going to move it a little more and try to have very little pressure on my cable.I may have to go to a Limbdriver on it.I have one on my XLR and it works great.Thanks for the input.
