I really like the concept and design, especially the full capture combined with the drop away nature. Plus, it' s less bulky looking than the Muzzy ZE...

I was concerned if it would drop fast enough to provide clearance with high fps, so I shot the company an email. Here is there response-

CONCERNING ARROW SPEED - We have no problems on our shop bow that
achieves 320 FPS. The mechanism is different than any other type of rest
and we have a performance margin that will allow for much faster arrow speeds. So, yes, we guarantee no contact.

There is no noise associated with " full draw" because the rest stays up
until fired. This is one of the greatest benefits of the Ultra-Rest...it
stays up and captivates the arrow until the bow is drawn and actually
fired. You can even draw and let down and the launcher arm stays up.

You can hear the Ultra-Rest at release if you listen for it but on the
test bows in the shop this noise does not exceed the string noise that
the bow normally makes. The bows I am mentioning are a Legacy and a
Q2...so they are among the quieter bows...

We hope this helps to clarify these issues and as always thank you for
your interest in Quality Archery Designs.

I may just have to give one of these a try after this season... Of course, I' ll have to wait to see what comes out at the AMO Show, but this one is definitely in the hunt.
