Default Drop away rest?

Was looking at teh Trophy Ridge "Drop Zone" rest today at the archery shop and was thinking about putting one on my bow. Does anyone out here have any experience or info on this drop away rest. Also are these drop away rest really worth putting on your bow. I shoot a Mathews LX.

I just put a new DZ on my Liberty. I really like it. I originally had put a trophy taker on it, but was too noisy for me. I didn't want to mess with all of the moleskin stuff, etc, etc. The DZ rest is totally silent and gives plenty of clearence. I also like the foam arrow rest that comes with the DZ. It is much more quiet than the one that comes with the trophy taker. I've never needed it, but people say trophy ridge's customer service is second to none. I don't think you would be dissappointed.

I have the Trophy Taker Shaky Hunter on my Justice and it shoots great.

You should search this forum for related threads. There are a bunch of threads regarding drop aways and the drop zone. Personally, I have one on my Ex VFT and love it. It is dependable and quiet.

I just bought a Trophy Taker Shakey Hunter and love it. Avery tough rest and about $30 cheaper than the dropzone. I don't think you could go wrong with the Trophy Taker.

I have several friends who use the Drop Zone and like it alot and as far as i know they haven't had any problems with it. I use the Trophy Taker Shakey Hunter and like it better, it's also been flawless in every way and i would recommend it to anyone looking for a fall away. I don't think you would go wrong with either one.
