Default Trophy Taker surprise

I've used the QAD Pro, Schaffer, and currently have a Muzzy dropaway rest on my bow. My son wanted a dropaway rest for his bow and tho I almost bought a Muzzy I bought and we installed a new Trophy Taker Pronghorn on his. We figured if we didn't like it, we'd sell it or give it away. No way....first TT I've set up and to be totally honest it may be the simplest. Within 15 minutes its shooting bullet holes and no clearance problems whatsoever with Blazer vanes. I don't believe the TT should be taken for granted, great dropaway.

I want to add that using the supplied felt or moleskin its dead quiet too.

Right on. I started using one for the fact that it has very few moving parts. In the field, I always go by the moto, the simpler the better.

I second that!

I saw it happen this weekend at the HNI Hunt'n Camp. It happened when a shooter was switching between two different arrow choices. He forgot the nock was a bit larger when he made the switch and the arrow was actually hovering above the rest at full draw.

I willprotect the innocent.
