I'm an extremely strong advocate for people to get out there and practice as much as they possibly can and use the best tools they can afford for the job. Our game animals deserve our best. I might be big and ornery but when it comes to animals I am a big ole softy at heart. I don't typically get a "thrill" from the actual kill. I know it's something I HAVE to do as a conservationist and a hunter. So I want to make absolutely certain that I can deliver the quickest and cleanest kill I can. I've been driven my entire life towards the goal of perfection even though I know it's unattainable. I try to drive every student I've ever had in archery and firearms to that same unattainable goal.
Well yeah but I think you found the highest price for a WB and the lowest for the qad

The basic WB is 39.99 shipped from Midway and the basic qad is $55 , $15 cheaper not $10 more......nobody should ever pay $60 for a WB IMO

I personally think the qad is well worth the extra $15 but its probably not to some people.

Its pretty easy to find a WB for less than $30

The qad is better but it is not cheaper.

As I pointed out earlier the criticism of the WB didn't lead to the OP getting a higher end rest.......it led to the op replacing the WB with a different $30 rest that carries all the down sides of the WB plus the added bonus of being prone too sudden one shot catastrophic failure.
