I've not long started shooting compound (had one a couple of months) and I'm mainly a recurve shooter, but I like to vary it a bit... It's going well mostly, but on occasion I have a lot of trouble with the arrow falling off the rest during the draw, particularly after I've been shooting a while. I think my draw becomes a little less smooth as my muscles tire and it really doesn't take much to have the arrow wobble off this rest. The rest is a Mybo Horizon launcher.
I'm wondering if perhaps the blade I'm using is not helping. I'm using the supplied standard blade (0.010" thickness, standard width). There's a diagram on the link above showing the different blade widths precisely. My arrows are Easton 2016 Platinum Plus with a total arrow weight of 405 grains. With these arrows would I be better off with the Wide blade? There's also the option of getting a heavier 0.012" blade, or should I stick with 0.010"?
I note another manufacturer recommends the thicker blades for arrows over 400 grains.
Thanks for any tips.
