Default Ripcord Rest & Guardian

Has anyone used a Ripcord rest on a Guardian? Any issues with it not falling? Blazers clear OK?

I currently have a Trophy Taker and I just can't get comfortable with it. I'm getting smoother with my draw (newbie), but the arrow has fallen off between the arm and the riser. Makes a let down almost impossible. I don't want to deal with this in a hunting situation....'cause I know what can go wrong--will go wrong at the worst time.

Thanks for any feedback

Chris

While I think the Ripcord is one of the better dropaways, you really ought to take a look at the Limb Driver and the Feedback on it.

I just installed the rip cord on my guardian, no problems with it falling, i served the cord into the cable instead of using the football atachment it came with. I have no clearance problems with the blazers, im shooting the cock vane out to the side so they clear the cables just fine.
