Default fall away rest question

I got a new bow this year and it came with an arrow rest that is like a whisker buscuit with cutaways for vein clearance. I don't even know what it's called. I would like to go to a fallaway but I would like one that holds the arrow on so I can move thru the woods with an arrow knocked. And it MUST be very quiet. Any suggestions.

The Xtreme Full Contain delivers the best of both worlds. The Xtreme has all the advantages of a fall-away rest combined with a total containment system. The containment ring holds the arrow in place. The durable, all-metal rest remains silent through the entire draw cycle of the arrow and allows complete clearance. Lifetime warranty

Maybe this XTREME would work for you. I shoot the original and other than lining the shelf and rest itself inmoleskin, I haven't had to touch it for 3 years. I absolutely love the TT but may try this XTREME so can get the best of both worlds.. I'd line the entire inside of that housing with moleskin and the prongs too.. she'd be dead silent and hold and arrow great it seems for spot and stalking ...I need it for elk and antlelope ground/brush hunting..

magic man i been looking at this one because it holds your arrow in position and on release drops away looks like what you might be needing

I am fairly new to archery and I wanted to get away from the whisker biscuit so i got a ripcord and so far I like it.

I believe MZE is the muzzy zero effect rest?

If you get one of these rubber arrow holders then you can hold your arrow in position with any dropaway.

The QAD is the best hunting rest I've used by far. It stays in the up position until the shot, full containment, quiet, easy to tune. It's just about perfect.

The Ripcord is very similar in design as well.
