Default RE: Drop away's 335fps+

I would think if they were adjusted properly just about any drop away will work. As soon as the cable starts down most drop aways are on their way down. The one I use has an adjustment making the inside spring tighter for high speeds. I'm not and won't be shooting anywhere that speed though.

Thanks Moto! I got a trophytaker on it and got it set as best as I can. I have to shoot a 4in vane(IBO)and Im hitting the rest with the vane. With this bow I found that the high profile vanes work best at this speed but now that I have it cranked 340 + - it seems to keep hitting.

Sorry I haven't used either of them..But I have heard that the limbdriver works a little better and easier to setup because it works of the upper limb as opposed to the cable....

Limb driver all the way.

The cable pulls the rest down and out of the way as the limbs flex back from the full draw position. It makes the dropping of the rest synchronous with the string approaching the brace height position.
