Atlas, I can do all of that with my QAD.
I like the idea behind the QAD rest but it has 2 things I don't like. Moving parts and too much room for the arrow to rattle around in.

This is a picture of a QAD rest at full draw.........how can you go from a horizontal position to shot ready without having to be careful the arrow doesn't rattle around in all that space?





I Have put hundreds of shots throught it between spots league last year and 3d all summer. I used it all hunting season and am using now for winter league. I have had it in the rain and the cold without a problem.
Over the last 4 years if my WB has less then 20,000 shots through it I would be shocked. I did change biscuits once (not from wear but from older to new model) It has been through the weather gauntlet as well.

I never said the QAD was a bad rest...........in fact, I think the number of actual "bad" rests out there is probably pretty small..........I just listed some reasons why I feel the WB is a better choice for hunting.
Good points atlas.

Do you think there is enough moleskin on that rest!
What happens when that stuff gets soaked? does it slow the drop speed?
