personaly i like my muzzy zero effect. Im sure there are newer rest that are all the rage right now but the zero effect is simple to tune absolutly no interference with fletching and you can buy them cheap of ebay about $20 dollars

I'm using a Trophy Ridge Dropzone, the Trophy Taker Pronghorn is good too.

Freefall Rest, no cords, no problems, has a sensitivity screw to adjust to any bows recoil. even my general.

I've played with a lot of them and the best one I've found is the QAD UltraRest HD (LD?) but I haven't played with them all.

My old bow has a whisper biscuit. It started tearing up vanes for some reason.
My new bow has the QAD Ultra Rest HD Pro Series.
No fletching contact and more arrow speed than old rest.
I'd go with a drop away rest!
Good luck!

I've Sold, Setup, and personally owned several dropaways, and the Vapor Trail Limb Driver is hands down the best dropaway on the market all features considered.

x2 on the limbdriver. Best rest I've ever shot, all things considered. I like it over the whisker biscuit, hostage rest, nap 360, ultra rest, nap quiktune 2000, dropzone, zero effect, and traditional style prong rests. I've shot all those on several different bows over the last 5 years, and the limb driver is quite possibly the last rest i'll ever even consider using.

It's all about what you like and what you are comfortable using, all I can do is give my humble opinion that the limb driver is the best rest on the market today.
