Default Best Dropaway Rest and Why?

What do you think the best dropaway rest is? I think it's between the Limb Driver and the Ultra Rest.

I use the Ultra Rest...no complaints at all..its a great rest

But I have no experiance with the Limb Driver so I cant give an opinion on that

ripcord, because it has an arrow holder so your arrow never falls off

I have the Limb Driver on several bows now. I'm impressed.

I've also been impressed with the Trophy Taker Pronghorn.

Ripcord looks like the same style as the ultra rest.

just read about the limb driver, says it supports the arrow for 60-70% of the launch cycle time? Don't you want it to drop away instantly when released?

I'm considering the rip cord and now maybe the limb driver, are either of these loud? ie any noise? more than the bow?

I just installed a Spot Hogg Whammy on the General..... Not sure about it yet , as I've not had alot of time since to shoot the bow. It is fast though, the dealer said he couldn't even see it fall. He thought is was staying up the whole time. It wasn't it was just super fast falling away and reseting.
