You should not be having problems with the QAD on a PSE X-force if properly tuned.

I have seen dozens of archers use that same rest with that same bow.

As was said earlier, increase the spring tension.

The QAD does have timing problems at times that are a pita to fix. It's why I don't recommend them much anymore

I don't think that the springs can accelerate as fast as these speed bows. The spring in the limb driver lifts the arrow while the limb forces the rest down. I have to find a way to keep the fleece on. I tried super glue but I think that I need a little more. My allen screw for the spring tension loosened on me tonight. I thought for sure that it broke in this cold weather.

hey you all talking qad if you did get one of these rests would the new ld or hd model prevent the timng issues from happening, are these caused by the bounce or by just being slow.

ORIGINAL: youngfart

The new Hostage Pro will be out in mid march by bowtech,I haven't tried one but from what the guys in here on the bowtech corporate staff say,you'll like it. Plus it doesn't have the drag as the wisker bisuit and it doesn't bother the 2" blazers or for that reason, any feathers or vanes. I'll have one on as soon as their out .

I don't know about the Pro version but I just bought the Hostage Capture rest for my Black Ice.

Give it a try and take it back if you don't like it. After several attempts, I gave up on the spring design. I am getting better and better with my limb driver. I don't think that it is perfect, but nor am I.
