Thanks for the help yall. Im sure it is addictive everey thing ive ever tried has been sadly lol (more fun less money). I saw a forum post where a dude put a wisker biscut on one and he said it worked good. I have one I will probably try it just for giggles and a fliper rest and with no rest.

If I were you, I'd email PSE and see what they suggest for rests, arrows, silencers, etc.
They surely have a technical team that help folks set up their bows.
take care

First, do not get a drop away rest. If you want to shoot off the shelf , get rests for that . Plenty available . If you want to shoot an elevated rest ( and vanes ) , get a simple stick on flipper type rest . You didn't give your draw length , but look at 2018's for aluminum.

55 is plenty for any deer in North America. Most big game actually.

Not to argue but just to give my opinion, that bow, if you look at the riser is not made to be shot traditional. It is set up to be outfitted like a compound. A flipper will not work on that bow. The riser is also not designed to shoot off the shelf. Again, it is designed for a shoot through rest. Have you seen the riser? This isn't some traditional bow, it is a take down recurve with a modern riser.


It'll work on that bow. Just as well as they work on some of the Hoyts and ILFs I've seen built.

Finster,I see what you mean after looking at pictures of that riser.That looks like that portion of the sight window is machined quite a bit past center.You wouldn't want to stick an elevated rest directly on that indent.You could never tune it.

It didn't appear cut that far past center to me . But if so, easy fix with a NAP Center Rest .

Jon, don't get the string thingys you put on to draw. Just get a glove or tab.

I put those SVL limb dampeners on my recurve. Self adhesive. They work great.
Mine is 58# @ my draw.

I'm 6'2" as well. My draw is 29" though yours may vary slightly.

I'm 6'1". My draw is 30" and I only draw to the center of my face down the center of my nose. That's something you have to get measured. Most everyone is different.

The wingspan measurement used to be used some but it doesn't always give your true draw length.The best way is to draw a long arrow and have someone experienced with recurves,mark the arrow.As you gain experience and your form gets better,your draw length might increase.
