New (to me) dropaway design. Limited info on the site, like, just a pic , but it looks like a Trophy Taker with a MZE mini hook arm...

That ball on the string makes me nervous already. If it breaks I want to be able to fix it...in a tree

Yeah that "ReSt" is a little difficult to scrutinize considering the angle. I thought it looked more like a cross between a Trophy Ridge dropzone and the Zero Effect's cradle arm.

Here's some additional info on this rest-

The rest was designed a couple of years ago when HCA applied for a pattent but did not market it because at that time was still in R& D stages and basically did not have the time or the manpower to finish the rest to get it in production due to more inportant R&D projects that took priority over the rest.
The rest is now been perfected and ready for the open market.

Yes TR copied the design and put their version of the rest on the market before the patent went through. this is something that they will deny nor can anyone prove but we know the truth.


The rest sits on a dovetail frame, all aluminum construction except for the turkey claw, vertical drop. actually it is not a ball, it is a small brass pulley with a groove for the cord to sit in the middle. the housing has a rod with a spring to make the rest drop, the static cord can be attached to either the harness or the cable guard slide. here at HCA we are fanatics about making light weight equipment so you can Rest assured (No Pun Intended ) that it is one of the lightest rests avalable yet still tough enough to handle the the hardaes abuse short of a nuclear blast.

the biggest advantage is that the turkey claw holds the arrow in place and is very good for hunting and the arrow cannot fall off the launcher when drawing the bow back turned on its side, and is very quiet.

the rest will retail around 65.00 to 85.00 depending on the dealer
Dont quote me on this but I believe that the rest along with the other Archers choice line will be Dealer only. HCA has dropped all of the mass merchants so the Independant dealers can regain control of the market.

HCA is now a dealer only Bow Manufacturer.

I will see what I can do to get better Pics after the Show this week

Does the described drop action of this rest differ internally from the TR Drop Zone?

It looks just like the rest High Country had on their site last year - but never released.

Rack, it is one and the same. Still haven't figured out why it's on Newberry's site, unless they are simply promoting them or possibly even selling them. There's a thread in the manufacturers forum on AT titled Newberry something that has more info if you're interested...
