Default What rests work well with the General??

Mine is in!!!, can't get it until after work, for those that have it what rests are you using with it? I have a Trophy Take Shaky hunter that I am/was going to put on it, but i thought I would ask what you guys/gals are using??

Either that or the hostage pro.

Heard a lot of good things about these. They are supposed to be perfect for parallel limb bows.

I use a Ripcord and it seems to work well

Another vote for the Limb Driver on the General. That's what is on mine but word of caution. You need to get it as close to the cam as possible and still have clearance as the limbs on the General do not move very much. Mine is positioned 3/8" from the cam leaving about 1/16 or less of clearance but it works perfectly.

Another great option given above, the Hostage Pro when available.

For a fixed rest, I'd only use the Bodoodle Pro 500 or Pro Lite.

Just my preferences.

I do however have the Trophy Taker Pronghorn on my Ally. I'd recommend it over the Shakey Hunter. I've had to saw off part of the rest's blade on the Shakey Hunter to get center shot on many (manufacturers) bows.
