I have a trophy taker drop zone full containment and love it, Easy to setup and tune, also very well built. 3 shots to paper tune

on the sight I would look at Viper sights, they have everything from entry level to advanced very well built lots of camo and pin options

I have a Trophy Ridge dropzone on my General and I like it alright. I was thinking about putting a QAD Ultra rest on for the full containment though.

I have a QAD and love it... The full containment is worth the $$$. Really great rest and very easy to tune..

i would recommend a bodoodle pro-lite rest its amazing. u can turn ur bow sideways and it will stay on the rest also i have a fuse 5 pin sight it micro adjustable wich makes it extremely easy to sight in and fine tune and u dont have to use any tools to adjust it. i agree the viper sights are also good hope this helps

Sights:

1. Spot Hogg
2. Viper
3. Sword
4. Copper John

Drop Aways:

1. Limb Driver
2. Rip Cord
3. QAD
4. Drop Zone
5. Trophy Taker

After using, selling, and installing several these are the order I rate sights, and Drop away arrow rests in. It's my Opinion!! Not the Gospel[8D]

I put a drop zone on mine this past winter for indoor and am thrilled with it... super quiet, it brought my scores up a bit, real happy about that... combined with the G5 ME site it has become a potent combination for me... now if I could just get my skills to come up a bit more!!! LOL!!!

Kaz-away rest
Viper pro sites.

for a full contain-zero fletching contact rest, the new hostage is pretty cool

the kaz-away is just unreal though.

I love my viper sites!!!

wow this is my first post in a while.
