Baloney! I wish people would not give advice without the knowledge or experience of use to back up their statements. Get a drop away. I've been shooting bows for about 55 years and shot all types of rests. The drop away style will give you the best accuracy. Set up is as easy as any other rest. I have installed these rests and had bows shooting field tips and broadheads to the same POI in less than 1/2 hour. And the ones with the arrow containment systems will hold your arrow in place (unless you turn your bow upside down which would never happen). The actual "V" rest for the arrow is wide enough that it will pick up the arrow anywhere within in the containment ring and will center it as you draw. Other designs like the Ripcord type you can c0ck prior to drawing and have a containment bar to hold the arrow in place. I went from a whisker biscuit to a NAP Apache drop away and my groups shrank about 25%. The Apache will cost you about $60 which will not break you and should last you the life of the bow or longer. It is quiet, solidly built and has toolless adjustments. There are also plenty of other good drop aways with this same design. But these may cost you a few more $.
