What do you think? Personally according to the laws of physics any vibration / movement of the riser would translate into movement of the magnetic fields resulting in forces on the arrow initially until the arrow tip clears the field.

It would improve arrow / fletching wear as well as be quieter. It would suck if you got bumped or something that cause just enough of an instability in the magnetic field to cause your arrow to move out of equalibrium and get stuck on 1 of the 3 sides.

Still I have to give it high marks for being a HECK of a creative new product regardless of how well it works!

I am anxiously awaiting reviews on this product.According to their website if someone is at full draw and you push on middle of shaft the shaft will actually flex before the tip moves in the rest.My concern is accuracy and if it will work if arrow is not laying in groove at beginning of draw.Like you said, would the arrow stick to the sides?It also utilizes new threaded inserts which are heavier than normal inserts so it will add arrow weight,not neccesarily a bad thing.

Looks interesting, but I would like to see it first hand.

Wow, can you say spendy..150 for the rest and then you have to use their magnetic inserts. I dont think I will be looking for one of these any time soon.
