Default Arrow Rests?

Hi,
I welcome any and all advice on Arrow Rests. I have been only shooting a bow (Browning Adrenaline 65 lbs. Compound bow) for 2 years and currently have a basic green plastic rest on there now.
I have upgraded some other features on the bow (I.E. Pendulum Sight, Limb Savers, Insulated Wrap ect.)
I recently noticed some wear on the current rest. So, I'd like to upgrade...but don't know too much about what's out there.
I have heard the NAP 200 is pretty good.
Please advise.
Thanks all!!!!

Their are several good rest out there, it is all in what your looking for. I myself shoot a bodoodle 3D for hunting and 3D. But some like a arrow rest that will not allow the arrow to fall off it if turn your bow upside down or drop it from a tree or some other reason LOL <img src=icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle>
But really, I would look at what some of my buddies are shooting and find out why they like them, or better yet go to a pro shop and maybe they will let you try a couple out.

I think the NAP rests are really good pieces. I have the Quicktune 1000 on my bows. I ordered a 2000 drop away to try out. You should get good service from with either of these, I would think.

Depending on what you are looking for you might consider the Golden Key Mirage or Muzzy Zero Effect drop away rests. They enable you to do away with problems associated with fleching or feather contact, bow torque, and they keep your arrow from falling off of the rest. great for hunting. Check out edersbow.com for their opinion on equipment. Good Luck!! {}

If you want a good solid drop away rest , I' suggest the NAP quick tune 2000 drop away. Alot will suggest the MZE , but the NAP is as solid , easy to set up , easy to tune as any I've ever seen.(And alot less $$$)

Why buy a gazebo , when you only want a deck?<img src=icon_smile_wink.gif border=0 align=middle>

jamaltwy, I put the 2000 on. I'm completely satisfied with it. The included instructions are plenty good to get it set up. To set nock point you raise the rest and go from there. I got mine from autumnchaseonline for a very low price. Excellent service, too. I think the 2000 will make a good rest for you.
