Are you dead set on a drop away??.......If not I would strongly suggest a Whisker Biscuit. It gives you 100% assurance that you'll never deal with your arrow slipping off, Plus they are quiet. Some people may disagree on the quiet thing (depending on arrow), but I lovemine, its sturdy, quiet, and dependable

no im not but dont you think the whisker biscuit has too much friction because it is 100 percent around the arrow?

Another vote for the Ripcord. The forks on the rest are tall enough that you don't have to worry about the arrow falling off and you can cock the rest up without having to draw the bow back.

Another vote for the QAD Ultra Rest. I've never set up a Limb Driver and everyone says they are easy to set up so I'm sure they are, but the QAD is pretty mindless too. I can generally have one set up and tuned in around 5 minutes.

The things I like about it are that it's full containment, once it is locked in the up position there is no movement to lose the arrow, it is dead quiet, accurate, easy to tune, and I never have to worry about it. It's really a great design.

For "hunting" I don't think you can beat a WB. I wouldn't be without one.
