It works perfectly and everyone out there so far that has purchased one has loved it as well. The material that is supplied with most drop away rests are simply something to keep the arrow lined up with the rest but if you tilt the bow it will slide off. With this one you can turn the bow upside down and not lose the arrow. Plus it stays as flexible in freezing temps . It looks bulkier than it actually is . Come to think of it , it actually acts like a vibration suppressor as well because it is made from very flexible rubber (hmmmm) Thanks for the comments.
