Ripcord vs. QAD What's your take?
 
I currently shoot with a WB with good accuracy, but everyone is telling me to go to a fall away. I hear that Ripcord and QAD are some of the best. What's your pick and why?

Use whatever works for you. If a WB is working, don't change, unless you are convinced you can do better. I use a QAD LD and love it, and use a NAP QT 2000 on my other bow, and I am a firm believer in drop aways. Less contact issues if the rest is timed correctly.

I switched from a prong type fixed rest several years ago.

Don't know much about the QAD...but love the Ripcords...have them on all of my bows

My only experience with drop away rests is the QAD.I put one on my General and so far it's working great.

if you use your bow mainly for hunting, i'd stay with the biscuit

I have had both, and I won't go back to the ripcord again. That whole deal where it will fall down when you let down cost me a deer last year. A fine deer. I have owned 3 QAD's and would own another.

I have the QAD hd and I really like it.
