So, after placing my order today for my new bow, I decided I would buy a Hostage Pro to try out on her. Being as I won't see the bow (ordered it in a custom color) until Thursday, I decided to throw it on one of the 82nds behind my counter. A few quick adjustments and I was shooting bullet holes in no time. Three shots later and I busted a nock. I'm impressed.
I have to say, I really like the Octane packaging. Definitely catches the eye.
A lot more fine tuning is available with the Pro version over the original.
The bristles are improved over the original as well. Though I'm still concerned with how quickly they'll wear out.
You aren't able to fine tune the bristles to the size of your shaft as much as I thought you would be able to. The bristles essentially fit down into slots in the rest itself. If you're in between the slots as far as sizes are concerned, you're sort of screwed.
All in all I like the rest so far. I'm anxious for my bow to arrive so I can really put it to the test. The machined aluminum is really an improvement over the old plastic version. We'll see how well it performs once the bow arrives.
Hostage Pro
Many nice features and quality throughout.
