Fall away rests?
 
As I haven't been shooting very long, all I have used has been a Whisker Biscuit. Someone told me that there are fall away rests that contain the arrow very securely. What can a fall away do for accuracy, and what are some quality rests I may want to check out?

for me it was not so much the accuracy as it was the contact with the arrow. i like the fact that my fletchings were not being touched. which inturn has increased my accuracy.

I use a RipCord fall away. I love it. I also used to use a WB, but I wanted to get a fall away to reduce friction. It will not drop an arrow. It comes with a bar that you can mount across the top like the QAD.

I do not use one and have had no experience with them but I was told they do add a little noise when they fall away.

I've used a WB up until this year. I put a Vapor Trail Limb Driver drop away on my new Commander. It shoots great. We'll see how it does in hunting situations in less than a week.

Yes sir...I don't remember if it was noisy to begin with but I moleskin everything.[8D] You're right though....she's whisper quiet.

Have you ever drawn in a 40+ mph crosswind?;) I did on a recent stalk and the arrow blew off the shelf and swung around till it stopped on my arm. But this was my fault for not keeping my finger on the arrow through the entire draw in winds like that. I dont use a stick on rubber arrow holder because of the design of hoyts shelf and because I may have been having contact issues with it.

I have the identical rest and love it though. I just put felt along the entire inside of the riser and shelf to keep the loose arrow quiet.

Can't say that I have but the next windstorm/hurricane we get...I'll be out there. Need to prepare for every possible situation.;):D
