I have the Hostage, not the pro. After shooting MANY arrows you will see wear on the bristles, but only on the bottom one. I have had to rotate my bottom one with one of the others after about 500 shots, which was veryeasy to do.

Its definately a better rest than my former WB, as there is absolutely no contact with any fletching. I will be replacing mine with the pro if I decide to go with blazers as there is more clearance with the pro, but all in all I will always stick with the hostage.
