Default Octane Hostage Pro Review

First and foremost I would like to thank Kelly/KY he sent me this rest. I cannot express my thanks enough. I was shooting a shoot thru rest on my Elite, because I was not sure what I wanted. Well now I know

1. Hostage Pro is a great rest, it's tough and one does not have to worry about much with this rest.
2. Quiet OMG I was shocked at how quiet the draw was with this rest and my FMJ. I sure could hunt with it and i will.
3. Accuracy was great and I have 0 fletching contact
4. Looks, well it looks pretty sweet on my Elite GT500

All in all a great hunting rest!!! I would recommend to anyone!!!! Thanks again Kelly

Not Bad Germ..It looks good too.

You might have some problems shooting those FOB's through it though...

If you look closer, she's on the "right" side
