i have one on my guardian (although the bow went into the shop today). i like it a lot. some may say it is noisy with the arrow, but the archery shop put a piece of cotton-like fabric on it. i think overall, the ripcord works great, i have no complaints at all.i spent 87 bucks for mine ( $79 for black)($87 for camo). A++

It's a good rest. Any of the real good rests are close to 100 bucks nowadays.

I love mine, put the arrow on the string cock the rest and the arrow cannot fall off. You can turn your bow upside down and the arrow is trapped. A lot of people say it is noisy when it slaps the rest. But I have mine set up so it doesn't hit the rest when it falls. Make sure you set yours up that way.
