Default Drop away rest arrow holder

Has anyone tried the Pine Ridge Archery drop away arrow rest holder? It looks like it stick right to the arrow shelf on the bow and holds the arrow in place when you use a drop away rest. Looks like a good idea and it is only 4 bucks so will probably try it anyway but just wondering if anyone has any pros or cons on it.

I ordered it yesterday, it was 10 bucks with shipping. If it works it will be well worth it.

I have made them out of foam, they work alright(the home made ones). Now I have moleskined my entire riser where the arrow rest is. I drilled a small hole in the edge of my grip and glued a small wooden dowl into it. I can twist my bow 90 deg. to the ground and the arrow will not fall out. The shakey rest will pick up the arrow anywhere it sits also.

I cut two small pieces off from an old arrow, maybe an inch long and fix them to the shelf with mole skin or something. Works pretty well and basically costs nothing. More of a guide than a holder though.

A lot of different dropaways already come with a arrow guide so there is not need to buy one.

Another arrow....hmmmmm....I never thought of that one. A biger shafted all. arrow perhaps, glued to the riser? More input paul. My idea works good but the arrow floats around on the shelf.
