There is a support that has a circle large enough for the fletchings to pass through and what look like stiff brushes pointing inwards to support the arrow shaft

25 pound will take all small critters and up to small Roe deer I focused on the 25 pound mark cos its good for unpractised novice preppers, rarely using the bow preppers, child and teen preppers, small adults and ladies. You can get similar bows up to 40 pounds which people can work towards when thy are ultra comfy with the lower power bows and they have built up their skills. And of course price is an issue when many preppers on limited budgets but who need to stockpile or cach large numbers of arrows and they cost money. Especially as most of the affordable budget arows are only safe rated to to a max of 40 pound draw compounds.Smile

As people get more experienced they can build their way up to whatever they want.

The other rest is called a Whisker Bisquit Smile

Guys yet again this article is developing into a fabulous well thought out thread with brilliant input from everyone, can I just remind folks that many posts are aimed at families and individuals on limited budgets and with no experience of many issues. So whilst in time those who develop the passion and skills ( and big bloody muscles Smile ) can I ask folks to think apply aiming their info to cover as many types of people as possible ( to begin with at least Smile )

and remember or consider that many preppers are
SKINT
NOVICES
PHYSICALLY SMALL
VERY YOUNG
VERY OLD
DISABLED
SLIGHTLY BUILT
and utterly new to stuff like practical prepping Smile
