Default Arrow rest questions

I have a question or two about some arrow rests. I am no shooting a basic two prong rest. I shoot good with it but would like something a little better. I was looking at either the NAP quicktune 360 or maybe a dropaway rest. Bow in mostly for hunting, but I practice alot and have also been shooting the Dart Video system. Any recommendations are appreciated. Also woul like opinions on the green mamba release or something simular that is a strap type adjustable release. I use a solid arm release now and its ok for target practice and the video shooting but I don't like it for hunting.

Thanks in advance

I have just started using a Ripcord fall away rest and really like it,
no problems. You can also flip it up into place before you even draw
and the rest has tall forks so there is no way your arrow will fall off.
As for a release I have a Scott Little Goose that I have had for a
few years and it has never failed me.

Thanks guys! I ended up getting a ripcord myself. The guy who owns the proshop I go to has one on his bow and I liked it alot. I have shot with it a few days now and so far it was a great decision.

Oh Yeah, I went with a Truball Cyclone for a release, so far so good with that choice too.

I am going to stick to my old fashioned prongs. I just figure that if I keep it simple is one less thing to go wrong.
