Default RE: Back to ol' Faithful with good results!

Bowfanatic, really, there was only a couple things I didn't care for much. One, it is big, heavy and bulky when compared to other rests. The other thing is the containment. Its certainly not the worst, but it could be made better. Inherently, you have to shoot cock vane up, which makes it difficult to use any kind of stick on arrow holder other than the one supplied or maybe a Trophy taker style. I felt that either of these were as good as the one that comes with the NAP's. You shoot cock vane down with them and the groove can be deeper, thus holding the arrow better IMO.

This isn't directly related to the DZ, but most drop aways is the use of the cord in the down cable. While I never had any problems with that setup, I just never could get completely confident knowing that a knot burned and mushroomed was holding my arrow up. But this is just my own pet peeves. NAP's uses a steel cable which in my head is a much better gettup.

Of course these are trivial. One thing is for certain, the DZ is very quite compared to any I tried other than the MZE. But the NAP is almost as quiet once you get the arrow holder in place.

Just my two cents.
