Top 10 Reasons to shoot a Limb Driver Pro-V
- Full capture containment cage. The Pro-V keeps your arrow where you want it. As long as it’s in the containment cage, the launcher arm will pick up and self-center it every time.
- Free floating launcher arm. As your arrow passes across the launcher arm during the shot cycle, it is allowed to push against the spring-supported rest. This allows inconsistencies or errors to be corrected during the shot cycle to ensure perfect arrow flight upon release from the string. Traditional fall-aways force your arrow to travel over a rigid surface which can amplify these inconsistencies and greatly reduce accuracy.
Limb Driver VS. Cable Driven
- Adjustable spring tension. The force in which the spring cushions the launcher arm can be adjusted to fine-tune your preference on arrow performance.
- Longer arrow support. Because it is run off of the limb, Vapor Trail Limb Drivers support the arrow for nearly 70% of the shot cycle. This allows the arrow to reach the speed it needs to stabilize itself in flight before the support is pulled away. With traditional fall-aways that begin to drop immediately, you typically see a great deal of “arrow dip” which decreases accuracy greatly, especially down range.
- Limb activation. By being activated by the limb, Limb Drivers do not require anything to be connected to the cables. By doing so, the rest is not pulling on the cables and taking your bow out of time or tune. This greatly increases accuracy.
- All-metal. The Limb Driver Pro-V is completely machined aluminum made here in the USA. There are no plastic or cheap parts to fail or wear down. The Pro-V is also lubricated with a lubricant guaranteed not to freeze up in the harshest of weather conditions.
- Ultra-simple setup. Setup of the Limb Driver Pro-V takes only minutes and doesn’t require the use of a bow press.
- Lightweight. The Limb Driver Pro-V weighs just over 3 ounces, minimizing added weight to your setup.
- Multiple custom colors options. The Limb Driver Pro-V is available in a variety of custom colors to match your setup including red, black, blue, green, pink, or purple. Choose from launcher-only colors or completely-decorated rests to make your setup stand out from others!
- Vapor Trail Customer Service. Whether you need help installing and setting up your Limb Driver, run into an accident in the field, or have an issue with your equipment, Vapor Trail’s Customer Service has always been one of the best in the industry. You speak to a REAL person from start to finish, not an automated system forcing you to search your way through.

Can I use the Pro-V on a PSE DNA SP?
You bet! On some of the PSE bows, you may need to move the cable guard up to it’s secondary position, but the Pro-V should fit on them all!!! Give us a call if you have any questions at all!
Have you had success using the pro-v on the hoyt faktor 34?
Kyle,
You shouldn’t have any problems installing and tuning our rest on a Hoyt Faktor. So long as everything is setup properly, the Pro-V is a great choice for any bow.
I was wondering, i have a factor 30 and im trying to get my center shot tuned in and i was wondering if you could give me a measurement off the shelf to the center of the arrow so i dont have to papertune it. There is a spot where there is no rubber on the shelf which would give me a better measurement. Id appreciate it and so far i love the rest!
Craig. If I had one of those bows in the shop I could tell you, unfortunately i don’t. Hoyt would be able to more accurately field your question. If you do get that measurement, it is highly recommended that you still paper tune. Glad you love the rest!
I just purchased a Bear Motive 7. I’d really like to put one of those rests on it. There should be no issues with that correct?
Brent,
There are no issues with the Motive 7 that we know of. You’ll be in good shape.
Dear Sir, I have a Limb Driver that I purchased about 2 years ago. I want to install it to my 2012 PSE Evo. About where should I attach the string to the upper bow. I know its just forward of the upper cam but I don’t know how far forward of the cam it should be. Can you give me a starting point?
Thanks, Clarence
Clarence,
The best place to start is to attach the cord to limb where the the cam intersects it. If you need to adjust from there you would typically move the cord towards the axle incrementally until you get the proper tune.
Thanks, Rick.
Will the Limb Driver Pro V work with an xpedition Xcentric?
Yes it will. You can run the activation cord through the center of the cable guard.
Pro-v + Bear motive equals Minnesota flavored back straps. Thanks for the help in being successful. I’ll be ordering strings soon.
Will the Pro V “universal” fit on the Mathews Halon 6, or does it still require the “Mathews only” Pro V? Thanks
Brian,
We made the Mathews version because it simplifies setup but the universal bracket will work with the Halon.
Will the Pro V work on my PSE STINGER x?
Jason,
Yes, the Pro-V will work with the Stinger X.
I bought a new adjustable sight and the cable for the limb driver Pro V is right in the way. I shoot a Mathews Z7 extreme, any way to attached to the bottom limb?
Unfortunately, the Pro-V is not setup for the bottom limb. I’m sure there are ways to make it work however none that would guarantee flawless functionality.
My arrow clip/holder keeps falling off after every shot. I have an Elite Energy 35 and was wondering what to do.
Kyle, you must ensure that you have thoroughly cleaned the shelf of the bow prior to adhering the arrow holder. The best solution for this is denatured alcohol. If you didn’t clean the arrow holder prior to adhering it to the shelf, dirt and/or debris will prevent the arrow holder from staying in place.
Will the pro v work on a Hoyt ignite? My pro shop wasn’t sure. I think because the limbs are fairly parallel.
Yes, the Pro-V will work on the Hoyt Ignite. The closer to the axle that you attach the activation cord to the limb, the more movement you’ll get in order for the rest to function properly.
Could I put this on a Diamond Infinite Edge? Also was wondering under the type of string sets you guys have what would i need for the Diamond Infinite Edge because i have no clue what the difference in the 1 cam and 2 cam thing going on and all that binary stuff Thank you
Chris,
The limb driver will definitely fit on that bow. The type of system your bow has is a 2 cam bow. (1) String and (2) Split y-cables.
I have a 2010 PSE bow madness single cam. will this work
I read it may not work on single cam bottom cams.
David, the Pro-V will work on most bows. A single cam will not prevent the rest from functioning properly. Check it out!

Ok on my 2015 pse stinger X the cable guide fouled the rest from being able to be aligned to get the centre shot. The solution was to remove the black bent rod and cut 10mm off the rod then reinsert in to the bow. This moved the bend in the rod forward giving more room to raise the rest. This means the rest could also be pushed forward too so as not the be in the rearmost position.
I gather by shortening the rod I am also shortening the draw length of the bow, but am still ok for my 29.5DL. Light be an issue if you wanted to get 31″ DL.
Have you experienced any issues with the Pro V on the Bowtech Carbon Knight? I have one on my 2014 CK and after every couple of shots the entire rest starts to pull up and out of place and i have to push it back down to make sure it will allow arrow clearance on the next shot. I have tried tightening the allen bolt that holds it in place on the right side of the riser but it is as tight as it will go. Any suggestions or thoughts? Any help would be much appreciated!
Phil,
Do you have the small set screw on the main bracket tightened into the riser? It’s intention is to prevent such an occurrence.
During elk season my pro V sometimes would get stuck and not raise my arrow. I would hold at full draw for a few seconds and then it would finally pop up. It stopped doing that after elk season but now it’s making noise every time I draw it back. I was wondering if there’s any kind of lubricant you recommend or what I should do to fix the problem.
Joe,
If you’d like to send that in for inspection, I’d be more than happy to take a look at it and get you fixed up. We have so little problems with the rests that I’d like to see what the issue could be. We stand behind all of our products so you’ll get taken care of for sure!! Please email me at ears@vaportrailarchery.com. Thanks!
My late season blacktail season opener is tomorrow so as soon as I kill one I’ll email you. Thank you.
I have a 2014 Hoyt charger, will the limbdriver Pro V work on this bow? I am also planning to upgrade to a new bow to get a longer draw length, could I take that same rest off of the charger and put on the new one or would i have to get a new limb-to-rest cable? Thank you in advance
Riley,
Yes, the Pro-V will fit onto your Charger and any subsequent bows that you purchase. So long as the axle-to-axle doesn’t significantly change, you should be able to re-use the cord.
Thank you for the help, will be purchasing one from my local shop
The string for the rest is touching my cable guard and my one pin sight, will that mess with efficiency of the rest or is this ok?
Anthony,
This should not be a problem so long as the cord doesn’t get hung up on any part of the guard or sight. For consistency reasons of course. You may want to put a piece of moleskin or cloth tape where it is contacting just to silence any noise or vibration during the shot.
Will the Pro -V fit the 2016 PSE Drive R with x force limbs?
Thanks
Yessir it will!
Which way should I turn my fletchings on my Limb Driver Pro-V?
It is recommended that you shoot odd vane out with the Pro-V, however, depending on your setup, you may be able to shoot odd vane up.
Thanks
Will this rest work on obsession turmoil ?
Steve,
The Pro-V should work just fine on that bow. I recently set one up on a Hemorrhage without any problems. Thanks ~Rick
I shoot a Mathews Legacy will it work on this older bow?
Absolutely!! We build lot of sets for the Legacy!!
Hello,
I am in the market for a new bow (still not set on the option I will choose) and noticed that the Pro V also comes in a Mathews specific option; does this mean that a ‘standard’ Pro V would not work on a Halon / Halon 32 / Triax bow? Will help me with knowing which to order.
Thanks – Tyler
Hello Tyler,
The universal mount will work on those bows. However, the Mathews rest is easier to install and level on the Mathews bows.
Thanks for the response. Is it safe to say that with all other brands the install of the universal mount will be ‘easy’?
Indeed, it is safe to say that. There are a few bows out there that the rest won’t work on. We are currently working on a solution for those.
hi
I would like to buy a mathwes triax, if I take the Limb Pro-V Driver (Mathews ONLY) it works well? Thankyou
Yes sir! The Limb Driver Pro-V WILL work on the Mathews Triax.
I have a Mathews only Pro V on my Triax. With the Mathews quiver on the limb cable runs very close to the quiver mount. Have you seen any issues with this and what do you recommend? I can use the spacer that comes with the quiver but would rather not have it set out that far from the bow.
Kenny, it’s ok if the cord makes contact with the mount. You just want to make sure that when you draw the bow, and the cord goes slack, that it can’t get hung up on something during the shot preventing the arm from going down.
I really like my limb driver on my hunting bow. I am currently looking to build a indoor bow. Old school has always been traditional blade or lizard tongue not scared to change but see some benefits in both any advice?
Thanks Ryan,
My advice to you would be to pick up a Limb Driver Micro Elite. It has all the benefits of a drop away with the spring steel blade and micro adjust, and if you want to convert it to a blade style, there is a conversion kit to make it a Blade X. It’s 2 rests in one!!

Which limb driver pro V is best for the Mission Hype Dt? Thanks!
Cody, the Mathews version will work best but the Universal will work also.
Whats MSRP on the Gen 7m
Rod,
We’re still working on the details of the rest. We should be releasing all of that information very soon!
Just mounted a new LD Pro V to my new Triax. I had to go to the end of my split limb to where it widens. Is that OK. Seems to work fine there. My LD string is very close to the Mathews Quiver and my sight which I think I will change. I had a QAD but have it for sale Ebay. I haven’t even paper tuned my LD yet but already am shooting better groups. I have been getting some staggered left to right arrows. Would this be possibly be caused by not being center shot yet? Anyway love this rest, my second one!
There have been many instances with limb driven drop away rests not clearing the cables on the PSE Xpedite. Is this an issue with the pro v?
Ralph, please contact Ears at the shop regarding your question. 763-862-8870
Will the LD Pro V work on a 2018 PSE Evolve 35?
Taylor,
You shouldn’t have any problems installing the Pro-V on an Evolve 35.
I’m trying to install the ProV on a 2015 Obsession Evolution and it will not go on without rubbing the cable guard. Am I missing something or will it not work with this model?
Thom,
Please contact Ears at 763-862-8870.
I’m looking at a new bow this year. I bought the Pro V last year and would like to mount it on the new bow. I’m looking at the Xpedition Mako X. My worry is that the local shop said he has heard of issues mounting the Pro V on this bow with the 5″BH. Have you guys been seeing this?
