QAD Ultra rest??
 

I just ordered the QAD Ultra rest for my Z7. Give me y'alls opinion on this rest good or bad.

I think the QAD is a proven rest, but honestly I've seen more problems with it than other dropaways I have set up. They either work like a champ or are a PIA, not consistent enough for me.

Best hunting rest there is. But some bows don't like it. timing is everything. I had it on a bowtech liberty, and commander and it worked great. Had it on my guardian, and troubles, troubles. Sometimes binary cams don't like the tension it causes on the cables.

I love mine and I'd reccomend it to any one of my friends or family. Its amazing. I'll probablly never use another rest.

What kind of problems,can you be more specific.I have been looking at dropaways and was leaning toward the qad pro ld or hd,and I am shooting a bowtech commander bow.

I know they have some problems with rests not falling or dropping fast enuf on the faster bows causing contact.The z7's we tested seemed to really like the trophy ridge drop zone and the Trophy Taker X-TremeFC.

Is this first hand knowledge or just talk?

I have an HD on my 82nd ABN and it has performed flawless. Follow the directions on set-up and it will be work perfectly.

I saw a video on both the rest and the mathews Z7 on BHP

Might want to check them out before you get them.

I have two 101s and I could not get this rest to work. Too fast but if you got the 82nd to work well maybe I did something wrong.

I use the limbdriver on both and it is as fast as you need it. I went through several before landing on this rest. Good luck and keep your receipt if it does not work.

Here's a suggestion just because this is what I did. I had mine professionally installed.... And it works flawless. Its an amazing full containment system. So I'd try that before I'd say the rest is junk ect.

Had the Pro on my Drenlin and loved it,best Mech rest Ive had......

I had one a couple years ago . Didn't like it and sold it in the Classifieds .

I've owned 2 QAD rests. Love'em, both. I did have to do some tinkering to get it figured out on my Bowtech General. I kept getting fletching contact. The rest includes 2 different prongs. I had to use the 2nd prong included to get the clearance.

Absolutely love mine. All I will own from now on.

Ive had nothing but problems with this rest. I could not get fletching
clearence no matter what I did. You should buy the higher model at least you
wont have to worry about bounce back like this rest. Good Luck.

The key to setting up this rest is where you attach the cord to the down bus cable (an inch or two makes a big difference). The furthur down you attach it the faster it snaps out of the way. I also cut the little bar off the top of the rest, it is really not needed unless you plan to shoot upside down.
