I have the Limbdriver, an no complaints, it works flawlessly..

But, coming from a Full containment style rest as the WB. And if your mainly going to be using it for hunting anyway... You might wanna look into the QAD rests that are full containment while being a dropaway.

Hood advice, also look into Vital Bow Gear containment rests, I have been using them for 10 years now and NEVER had a problem! Made in the USA and a lifetime warranty!!!!!!!!

I have tried almost every rest on the market (QAD, Trophy Taker, NAP, Trophy Ridge, etc.) and I keep coming back to the Schaffer line of rests.

They are bomb proof, easy to adjust and once they are set you can forget about them because NOTHING will move. To boot, they are custom made for the Mathews and Hoyt risers and look very slick on the bow.
