Which Rest Do YOu Guys and Gals Use?
Just wondering what rest you all use for hunting? I will be getting my new bow, and I still have not settled one one. I am not asking which one is the best, as I am sure you all feel you are using the best rest for you. I just would like to know what the majority of the hunters in here use.

I do not think I am going too far out on a limb here when I say that the Whisker Biscuit is probably the most utilized hunting rest today....at least from what I have seen posted on the forums and from down at the local shop and 3D shoots. I do not know if there would be a strong 2nd contender but the various drop away style rests now available also get alot of praise.
Myself? I never really got into either. I still utilize either a GKF Golden Premier or Infiniti rest on my bows.

After doing some testing with blazer vanes , [I usealy use feathers] , I discovered that the only rest I was getting complete clearance with was a trophy ridge drop zone . The others tested were , muzzy , quad ,and limbdriver . Im back to feathers , a little contact is too much for me , when someone advertises a fallaway I belive I should get complete fletch clearence . I see alot of threads with pepole showing their setups and their vanes are all rippeled up , contact is the culprate , put some lipstick on your vanes and you will see where you are getting contact nomatter how slight .
