Default Rest?

I'm getting ready to put anew rest on my bow and was wanting some input on the best rest. I would prefer a rest that holds the srrow in place after last year i blew a shot on a beautiful 8 pointer after the arrow fell off the rest because i had to make an off camber shot. I was looking at the whisker but wanted some opinions from real hunters before i did.

I hear the Kazaway is a great rest. A friend uses one and he LOVES it!.

I use a Trophy Taker.

Try the QAD rests. They are full containment so your arrows will stay in place. I use on and its great, No problems.

Great review Greg!!!! You almost convinced me to go buy one, but my QAD is just shooting so good I couldn't put it away for this season. But who knows come next summer I might buy a MZE and try it out.

MoHunter, I just put a new rest on this past Tues, just before the shoot. It's a Vial Gear Vital drop. It's a drop-awayIt holds the arrow the whole time until you draw. check it out.

I will have to take a look at these options. The problems wasn't until i was at full draw and was following the buck till i had a shot. thats when he twisted around behind my tree.
