ash,
I picked up the first version of this rest last February after the ATA show as I was impressed with it on some of our demo bows.......it did not disappoint.
I have literally thousands of shots thru mine, used it for the entire abusive all weather hunting season and it worked flawlessly.
I have said it many times over the last year, why this thing isn't the MOST popular hunting drop away rest is beyond me?

It has TRUE full containment peace of mind and the attributes of the best drop away rests on the market.
It's dead silent, very adjustable and this year's version is improved over last year's initial model. The "cage" is a little larger and much beefier, and the "Safari" model uses custom Slick Tubes on the launchers, the tuning and set up has been refined and the mounting bracket styled a little better.
I still have my original one on my Bowtech Liberty and a brand new Twister "Safari" in the package awaiting my new Allegiance. They have a side loading "SL" model but the arrow loading never bothered me anyway so I chose the Safari model with the slick tubes.
It's as accurate as any rest I've ever used, in fact I'm shooting mine for my 3D league by default as my target bow has not arrived yet and I'm shooting double digit points up on most shoots with my Liberty hunting set-up.
It's simply an awesome rest.
I don't work for APA or anything, I am just impressed with it enough to sort of be it's ambassedor.
To me it's the closest thing to the perfect hunting rest as you can get. I have previously used Muzzy Zero Effect, Trophy Taker reg and Shakey hunter, NAP quiktune drop aways and a Trophy ridge Drop Zone, and I like this one the best.
After shooting the Twsiter I couldn't imagine shooting an open style drop away rest for hunting ever again.
