I love my ripcord, I can turn my bow upside down and the arrow won't fall off.You can precock it or let it pick up the arrow on the draw,

I love my ripcord rest. I have even gotten a few friends to convert, pulling them away from thier favorite WB's.

I just switched from a WB to a QAD Ultra Pro. I really like it. It also can be "cock" so you don't have to worry about the arrow falling off during draw. I like the fact that unlike some other drop aways, the QAD locks down so it doesn't bounce back up and hit the arrow.

I done a lot of reading before I bought this rest. If I am not mistaken the QAD and one other (can't remember which) are the only two that lock down. I didn't think it was a big deal until i seem some videos of it....it explained of how with a very fast bow that the rest (if it didn't lock down) would bounce back up and hit the arrow.

I also have a ripcord and love it. They are very similar to the QAD rests. I dont think you will be disappointed if you get one!
