Either will work. Teh whammy just seems to have a little bit more of a reputation for problems. That being said, I have seen one in action (on TFOX's bows) and it worked great. It is a very interesting rest for sure.

About the breaking issue, ive been thinking about getting one with the new capture arms, and then cutting the fingers off, so just in case my cord were to ever break or something crazy like that, I could still shoot with no clearance issues. Im not sure if it will work, but im gonna give it a try here pretty soon adn ill let everyone know.
