Hostage Rest??

rybohunter · 03-16-2008, 06:27 PM

So what's the difference between this and the NAP 360? Anyone use it? Comments? It seemed like few people had anything decent to say about the 360, I'm curious as to why someone would put out the same thing that already didn't do well.

360's had a problem with the bottom post breaking off. Mine did it too.

I bought a hostage here on the forums. I liked it really well. It was super quiet.

I would have kept using it, but I bought a limb driver 2 days later (got a good deal on it at the shop).

IMO you can't hold a candle to a limbdriver. It is the best rest I have ever used, it's quiet for a drop away, and easy to tune.Plus, you can get an arrow holder for it that holds it in place until you draw the bow, then it pops it up.

hope this helps.

Did you have the new NAP 360? They redesign it, Rybo I like the new nap I have one on order I will let you know. I also like this one by bodoodle

My son has a Hostage and loves it. I think I like it better than my WB, but don't want to spend the money to change right now. The Pro Hostage also has some additional adjustability to it.

Thanks for the info guys.

Germ,
I came close to buying a 360, but just never heard enough things about it, even after the redesign, and since I am REALLY not arisk takerwith archery technology, I passed. But I really like its concept as well as the hostage and those bodoodles you posted. I just want someone else to work out the bugs first

Well I went to cabelas and gave the NAP a look over. I have to admit I like the Quality of this rest. I should get mine tomorrow from Lancaster, and on Thursday I should get the Bodoodle. I order the 400 Zapper
