RE: rest and sights for a new bow
I will give you my opinion, there are many good sights and rests out there that I'm sure if you do a little reseach you can't go wrong. Mind you my opinions are for a hunting bow only as I do not compete. For the rest both the drop aways and the Biscuit are very good. I like the Whisker Biscuit. Two things stand out about it,1.no moving parts to fail. 2.full capture of the arrow.
It'sjust two less things to worry about. If those areas are not a big deal to you then I think the drop away will suit you fine.
For sights you have even more options and again I will give you myopinion. I have had luck with cobra sights as well as tru-glow. My hunting bowhas a tru-glow 5000 sight. It's a one piece all metal sight with three pins and the 20yd pin is a tritium pin so no need for a light. It's very sturdy with micro adjustments and about $70.00
As you can see I like very simple and reliable components on my hunting bow. The less I need to worry about my bow themore I canthink about thehunt/shot.
