Seems like the cord stretched to the top limb would be in the way and catch on twigs and brush in the woods. I've never used one so I'm looking for opinions on those that use the Limb Driver in a hunting situation not just at the range.

You'll find most people that worry about that have Never hunted with a Limb Driver.

I have hunted with one for the last 2 years. It is nothing to be concerned about

Look at the muzzy zero effect. There's no cord at all. It attaches to your cable slide and is as quiet as it gets. The only neg. that I've heard about this rest is that it will slow your fps alittle.

IMO, there are only two, maybe three rests I would consider at this point. Whammy, Limbdriver and potentially the new rest from Octane. The reason being is they will not affect the timing of your bow. Rests that use the down cable must pull so hard on the cable in order to keep the rest up long enough that it effects timing.

The timing issue is just a selling ploy, IMO..My rip cord does not change or affect my timing what so ever..LOL
