Default Which rest do you prefer...dropaway or not?

Well, I' m picking up my Legacy on Saturday. I was wondering which rests you guys like. I' m not sure if I' m gonna go with a dropaway or a shoot-through. I know people like the Trophy ridge dropaway and with shoot throughs, I know people prefer the Nap 3000. I was just wondering though what everyone prefers!

The NAP Quicktune 4000 is a better than the 3000, it has graduates scales for adjusting and shoots GREAT to boot.

I really like the Power drop but you may want to check out that new TKO fall away that GKF has put up on the market I hear it is supposed to be a really good one for a very attractive price.

Muzzy Zero Effect is my personal favorite. The new version for the Mathews bows with the Roller guard system looks pretty sweet too.

I' ve used the Trophy Takers on my Legacy and LX an like them. Before I used the Bodoodle Pro 500 or Pro Lite and they worked well also.

Though I always like to try new equipment and though I have yet to find any real fault with the variety of drop away designs on the market I still tend to prefer the traditional " shoot through" designs. I like the compactness, adjustability and lack of extraneous linkages found on the more traditional designs. Because of these reasons the MBG Trapdoor dropaway rest was my personal favorite when I used them.

Now I currently have a Golden Key Futura Golden Premier on one bow and a GKF Infiniti rest on the other. Both have performed flawlessly and I have no problems with fletching contact.

I' m currently using a Mathews prong rest on my Legacy. You can have it rigged either way, as a prong rest or a fall away! It gives you the flexibility to try both.
