Switch from WB to fall away rest
With bow hunting fever setting in for another year I am thinking about switching from my WB rest to a new fall away rest. I have never used a fall away rest before but from what I have seen they would be a good fit for me. The two that have really caught my eye are the new NAP Apache or the QAD Ultra rest. What are everyones thoughts on the switch and what would you recommend?

I just switched from a WB to the NAP Apache 2 weeks ago and I love it. No problems with the arrow coming loose. Also noted a slight increase of speed. I know this probably won't factor much into your decision, but personally I think fall away rests look better than a WB. But that's purely subjective.

I switched last year and I kind of miss the WB. I have the trophy taker rest and I have to hold the arrow in place while trying to move in closer. The WB I didn't have to worry about any of that. Alot of those advertise as being full containment but they still move around and make noise. It has a little rail that goes on the riser to help but it doesn't always stay in that.

Ripcord
Went from a WB to a Ripcord and love it . I found a good deal on one on Ebay and saved some money too.
You can use your WB on a Slingshot put it on with a couple of plastic ties and use in the up position for arrows and push it down to use it as a Slingshot. It works just cut the rubber bands a little shorter for more power .
