I wasn't gonna go with a fall away but I may end up doing so ... However I think I'm going to try the NAP quicktune 360 first since the price is manageable. It is a "containment" type of rest (suggested by Madjac - thanks BTW) it was under fire by critics but was redesigned 6-8 months ago.
I'll probably end up asking my local archery shop guru what he recommends ... he seems to know is shhhhh (stuff) as well.
Thanks everyone I appreciate the info. Feel free to keep posting though ... I'm all ears, and eyes.

I have used a WB for years with no issues at all. No trimming, no mods, no moleskin.........nothing. It is more accurate then I am capable of shooting and I have personally butchered over 20 deer killed by me, my brothers, and a cupple buddies in the last few years using this rest.
There are all kinds of good rests out there. Considering the whole picture though I believe the WB is the best for hunting.
As far as targets go.........the only ones I shoot at are hunting targets and the WB does just fine there as well. My brother shoots 290+ rounds in his 3d league with a WB on his Trykon.
Good Luck.

hey there
I had a WB and hated that thing, I couldn't keep vanes on my arrows it was chewing them to pieces, I had the techs on the phone with me for about 2 weeks, they finally decided to just send me out a new one and it did the same thing so I threw it in the garbage and bought a new rest. I've gone through a few since then and couldn't find one that I was really happy with until now....
I just reciently bought an APA Ultimate safari mirco rest, I know some guys have the twister but I find the twister to be loud when it twsts after shot and I want mine for hunting and 3D so noise is a factor. I am very partial to containment rest because I do alot of ground work when I hunt. If I were just shooting 3D there is no doubt I would use a drop away rest, they are amazing but I also want something for hunting and to me that means a containment rest as I have had my arrow leave my rest at the worst possible time.
well either way good luck with your choice
