, causing the launcher to rotate up, lifting the arrow into shooting position. Upon release, the tether moves up and pulls tight, forcing the launcher to drop out of the way within the last seven inches of arrow travel. On the range, the Vital Pro proved easy to set up horizontally and vertically, accurate (tested to 30 yards) and quiet at the shot--no loud, game-spooking noises. The Vital Pro can also be set up similar to most drop-away rests with the optional extension spring, which requires the tether to be connected to a downward moving cable. Vital Gear's Vital Pro is available in different models; Vital Pro (Black), Vital Pro Camo, Forest Vital Pro (Mathews bows) and a universal Vital Pro (fits all bows).
