Default General Shooters what rest?? (Guardians)

I'm trying to piece together a new General. (I don't have the bow yet, just figuring out what I want).

I'm pretty set EXCEPT for an arrow rest. I want a fall-away of some sort.

I love my muzzy zero effect, but it's not available for this bow. (I never liked the "cord" associated with most fall-aways.)

So let's hear it what do ya like and why? Price is NO factor!

I have heard good things about the Limb Driver.

You could try the MZE for roller guard bows that might work.

The rumor mill does have Muzzy designing a new rest for the beyond parrell bows not sure if it's true tho.

I just picked up a Bodoodle Game Dropper for my Marquis.

I really like my QAD drop away. I've had no issues. It is full capture when cocked. You can draw then let back off without the rest dropping away. At the shot,it dropsand stays dropped...no bounce back.

It uses a cord which seems to have you turned off, but I've had no issues with mine. It's been set it and forget it.

I keep hearing about the limb driver. Who makes it?

I may have to use a cord..Jim I don't see to many other options at this point!

The Zero Effect will not work for the new Bowtechs with roller guards -- yet. There will have to be a redesign of the product to make it compatible.

For all my bows which I can't shoot my beloved ZE's on, I shoot Vapor Trail's Limbdriver. I've got it on my Diamond Marquis right now, and I have a brand new one hanging on the wall behind my workbench waiting for my General to come in any day now.

I'm thinking about giving the New Trophy Taker a trial.

Probably a minority here...but I've got a drop zone on both my guardian and my general. Works great with both. Best of luck.

Well consider me in the minority as I have the drop zone on my GUardian as well.
