Integrate Mounting System (IMS) rest dovetail
A dovetail machined into the riser that an arrow rest clamps onto instead of bolting through the Berger hole.
How it mounts
| Mount type | dovetail rail machined into the back of the riser |
|---|---|
| Fixing | two-part clamping claws, no mounting arm or Berger bolt |
| Self-levels | yes, the claws lock the rest square as they tighten |
| First adopters | Mathews 2018, Hoyt 2020, PSE 2021 |
| Bows with it | Mathews, Hoyt, PSE, Bowtech, Bear, Prime, Darton, Xpedition, APA |
The Integrate Mounting System replaces the traditional Berger-hole bolt with a dovetail cut into the riser. The rest carries two locking claws that clamp onto the rail, which removes the mounting arm and set screw and drops weight.
Because there is no bolt to fight, the rest self-levels as the claws tighten, which is the main reason it has become the mounting standard across flagship bows. A Berger-hole bow can still run an Integrate rest with the QAD Integrate Berger Mount Adapter.
