Drop-Away for Xtec
I've been shooting a Mathews Legacy for a while now! I had gone into a shop and was told to check out the new Xtec. Well, needless to say, it felt great and now I'm going to be a Hoyt shooter. I have shot a Nap Quiktune 3000 rest on my bow and now I'm looking into a drop away. What do you guys recommend? A buddy of mine is trying to convince me to shoot the Trophy Ridge Dropaway. I kind of like the Muzzy Zero Effect. Does anyone have any comments on these 2 rests?

Just put the Drop Zone on my new Outback, love it. A friend has teh trap door, but, I heard it was good butafter approx. a year would start to fail. Just wouldn't want it to be in the back of my head that it could fail while hunting.

The Drop Zone is an awesome rest. I had an excellent season with the DZ as this rest performed flawlessly all seaosn long. Solid, quiet design that's certainly going to be hard to beat.

Make sure to check out the Golden Key TKO Dropaway.
This rest is by far becoming the most popular around .
Bullet Proof with key adjustment features.
It also is lightweight and not Bulky also runs for under $50.00

Jealousy is so ugly. Unfortunately there are some who frown upon anyone who is consistent on mature animals. I'm sure the companies that these folks are supposedly representing must be proud (GK). Some folks should maybe spend more time hunting and less time posting. [&:] People really do like to see that the products work. Good shootin' 
Here's a pic of the highest fence on MY property.

Hey IL-Cornfed
Since you seem to be so handy with a camera, how about taking a picture of your cable where you have the lanyard from the DZ served in. I have a DZ on my current bow but I tied it into the cable slide. It worked great all year with no problems. I just bought a new bow and another DZ and I think I may try to serve it into the downward cable first as recommended. THANKS
