Default Fall away rests?

As I haven't been shooting very long, all I have used has been a Whisker Biscuit. Someone told me that there are fall away rests that contain the arrow very securely. What can a fall away do for accuracy, and what are some quality rests I may want to check out?

for me it was not so much the accuracy as it was the contact with the arrow. i like the fact that my fletchings were not being touched. which inturn has increased my accuracy.

I use a RipCord fall away. I love it. I also used to use a WB, but I wanted to get a fall away to reduce friction. It will not drop an arrow. It comes with a bar that you can mount across the top like the QAD.

I do not use one and have had no experience with them but I was told they do add a little noise when they fall away.

I've used a WB up until this year. I put a Vapor Trail Limb Driver drop away on my new Commander. It shoots great. We'll see how it does in hunting situations in less than a week.

I love mine. Never had an issue with the arrow falling off.
