Interesting thread.
I'm considering a prong style rest (Quicktune) versus a Dropzone.
Thats what I am putting on my Allegiance for the time being, except its an old Doty rest that is as solid as the day I bought it.
I had my previous fallaway wear out on me season before last and I pulled out my old Golden Premier rest.The first day hunting with it I picked up my bow and went to place it between my legs like I have done hundreds of times before and the arrow fell off the rest.Then I was constantly watching my arrow to make sure it wouldn't fall off.Great rest but I don't like having to do that.I was also had some clearance issues with small diameter arrows I use and extreme helical feathers that I like.
I put a limb saver rest on within a few days and finished out the season with it.Basically just a Trophy Taker and it is a fine rest but not quite what I was looking for.
I then tried the Whammy after the season and haven't looked back.It is exactly what I have been looking for out of a hunting rest.Good containment and plenty of forgiveness.
