Default what rest to get?

Hi i just got a new Diamond Edge 40-50lb bow. I want to get a rest. What are your opinions on what rest is the best? I heard that fall aways are good. Now i have a whisker biscuit but people have told me that they really chew up the vanes. What do you guys think?

I shot the WB for a while. I just recently switched to the QAD and I love it.

Being a limbdriver user myself, i like it, but consider the cost of the bow you have, and then add another $100 for a limb driver.... Though if you spend that much on a rest, it could likely be the only rest you'll ever need for a long time....

But on the other hand, Nothing wrong with a whisker biscuit at all I used one for quite a while myself.

the biscuit fine if it suits you...but like others said, the QAD is a great, affordable rest (its what I use) The Limb Driver is an excellent rest, too.
