I think the QAD is a proven rest, but honestly I've seen more problems with it than other dropaways I have set up. They either work like a champ or are a PIA, not consistent enough for me.

Best hunting rest there is. But some bows don't like it. timing is everything. I had it on a bowtech liberty, and commander and it worked great. Had it on my guardian, and troubles, troubles. Sometimes binary cams don't like the tension it causes on the cables.

I love mine and I'd reccomend it to any one of my friends or family. Its amazing. I'll probablly never use another rest.

I know they have some problems with rests not falling or dropping fast enuf on the faster bows causing contact.The z7's we tested seemed to really like the trophy ridge drop zone and the Trophy Taker X-TremeFC.

Is this first hand knowledge or just talk?

I have two 101s and I could not get this rest to work. Too fast but if you got the 82nd to work well maybe I did something wrong.

I use the limbdriver on both and it is as fast as you need it. I went through several before landing on this rest. Good luck and keep your receipt if it does not work.
