drop-away rests
 

i was looking in to buying one of those drop-away rests but i was wondering which ones you guys prefer

RE: drop-away rests
 

You'll probably get lots of different answers with your question because it's really a matter of personal preference. There's a ton of fallaways on the market and they'll all do what they're designed to do if they're set up correctly and the bow is tuned.Having said that, my personal preference for hunting is the GKF Mirage. It has everything i want in a fallaway for hunting so thats what i use and recommend when asked. I don't shoot spots or 3d but if i did i would probably go with something else, not that the mirage wouldn't get it done because i'm sure it would but imo there's some better target rest out there.
Do a search using the keyword fallaways andi'm sure you'll probably come up with all kinds ofgood information. Mike

I think they are all pretty good but I prefer my NAP Quicktune 2000. It is pretty simple, easy to set up, and dependable.

I have the Hoyt/Fuse and the Ultra-Rest and so far I like the ultra-rest better but the Hoyt rest has knob adjustments and the Ultra-Rest is a type that you loosen a bolt and move by pushing. Both are pretty good. I think the Hoyt is a NAP.

I have a Ripcord andworks great for me.
Very easy to tune, took me 2 adjustment and shooting bullet holes with mine.
Total arrow containment great for stalking.
So far no complaints on the Ripcord yet.

Also look at the Qad ultra rest LD.

I prefer the dropaways made by APA. They are also a full containment rest so there are never any worries about a dropped arrow at the moment of truth.

I prefer the HTM because, to me, it's the strongest built and most reliable of them all. ;)

I have had a trophy taker for 4 years and performs flawlessly. I have the original on my Trykon and the shakeyhunter on my Tribute. http://www.trophytaker.com/arrow_rests.aspx?model=shakey&type=arrow_rest HCH

In the world of dropaway rest I feel thereare a few things to consider.
1) If it's out of the way then you might as well have a containment feature .You don't even have to think about your arrow falling off.
2)The ridged arm is IMO more fail safe then the string,and is connected in to the guide Rather then the cables

They make a custom rest for Hoyt,Mathews and a universal to fit all others. They also convert to a conventional rest if you decide you don't want a fall away.
