RE: arrow clip stuck in down position
I shot my phoenix and vortex today for about an hour. I had no problems shooting or any other mishaps. i just took a look at my phoenix and noticed the arrow clip is stuck in the down position against the rail whereas my vortex is in the correct position with the clip having a 1/4 inch of airspace between the rail and clip. If i try to move the clip on the phoenix its very difficult to move whereas the Vortex clip moves freely. I can not figure out what has occurred and I believe that someone may have an answer for me. Any input into my situation would be greatly appreciated. Thanks Pete

I would bet that the last time you laid the rope cocker on the bow it rode on top of the bar, that would force it down to the rail when you cocked the bow. I have done that before and it bent the bar down hard.

thanks for the replies I forgot to mention that after shooting the phoenix i did reset the brace height and it appears that the rope cocker rolled over the clip while resting it. I removed my scope mount and noticed the bent clip immediately. I put it back into the original position and remounted the scope. All looks fine now. Going to shoot tommorrow but I am sure my scope is still on the mark. thanks again for the input.Pete
