Our grip maker not taking orders at this time will get another to make some. We have a cabinet maker here working for us. And says he can make some grips. I will check with him and we can go from there.

We have a grip maker who can do them. I just sent one to texas. I will check and see if he wants to do another. They are a little more work to make. And cost slightly more i believe.

I installed a Limb Driver on my Screaming Eagle. No modifications or brackets were necessary. The drop away works like a dream. It only took about 20 minutes to complete the installation. I ordered the solid limb version and attached it to the upper limb power cable clevis area. Works great!

Anyone know where I can get an Oneida wooden grip for my Screaming Eagle? I have been watching Ebay but they do not appear very often.

thanks.

I have the TriVan Vanishing rest.
I will give you all a little review of the rest.

It's similar to the Octane Hostage with three arms with brushes
There are 2 adjustment screws on the rest, one for adjusting sensitivity and one for adjusting arrow diameter.

Pro's:
It's a full capture drop away.
It stays locked in let down.
It has good clearence for high vanes as Blazers.
It takes the rest about 4" of arrow travel before the arms start to retract.
Easy to adjust for sensitivity and arrow diameter.

Con's:
There are lots of small parts inside, that are partly visible. this could be an issue in the wood, stuff could get in there and cause a malfunction.
There is a very small clicking sound when the rest falls away.
I had 2 small screws rattle loose on my rest (problem solved with loctite but should not have happened on a rest for almost $100).

I personally like the rest as I get the perfect arrow flight I was looking for.
Feel free to ask any question as I'm bound to have forgotten something....

Here's the proof.

2010-02-05T15:08:16-04:00

Frank, No tricks,In fact I believe its the easiest drop away I have ever set up. And the Whammy has become my Favorite drop-away.

Have installed Trophy Taker Shakey Hunters,Muzzy drop-aways,Nap Quik Tunes,& Trophy Ridge drop zones before buying a Whammy and the Whammy moved to the front of the class.

I get better arrow flight with my Whammy's. I think this is because it holds the arrow up longer before dropping away.

I will include my telephone number with the bracket so when you get ready to install it you can call me and i'll talk you through it.

Also,Are you Right Handed? It will make a difference on how the piece you serve the cord too is mounted.
