Rest advise
 
OK I have been using a Schaffer drop away on my bows for quite a while now. On my Guardian it functions well, but on my 101 if I don't draw super smooth the arrow wants to flip up and off the rest. I really like the design of the Schaffer's, but I want to try something else.

I have been waiting patiently for the Hostage pro's to come out and now that they are here I can't decide if I want to try it or go with the limb driver that I don't like the extra string dangling in front of my eyes at full draw. I know alot of guys are using them, but I can't get passed the string thing. Another option would be going back to the ripcord rest.

Any other suggestions or advise would be appreciated.

The Ripcord is phenominal. All the benefits of a full containment and drop away all in one.

How tight are the nock points on the string? Do you have nock pinch?

I have the Trophy Ridge drop away on mine and have been really pleased with it, however I have never tried any other drop away's. Then again it works well so I guess there is no need to try anything else yet.....Good Luck

I use limbdrivers and I never see the string.

What suprises me is Ultra Rest is never an option but is one of the best rests made...

I really liked my Trophy Ridge Drop Zone that I had on my Commander(now owned by oilpatchpride). I have a limb driver ordered for the 101.

Limbdriver fan here. HAve you ever shot a bow with limbdriver on it? Don't see the string at all and doesn't affect timing on your binary!

I don't think so. I use a loop, but I guess I really don't know exactly what your talking about

If your knots are too close together around the nock, when you draw it will have a tendency to do exactly what is happening to you. Try seperating the knots of your loop away from each other a tad and see if it fixes the problem.

I sell and have used all the Drop Aways mentioned. All things consideredthe Limb Driver is the best drop away out there right now IMO. You won't find many unhappy owners!;)
