RE: Gettin a new rest...
I agree with the rev...I use to use a WB and I was constantly having to re-fletch my arrows. If you want a WB, then look towards the hostage...
I personally use a drop away which I love leaps and bounds over the WB. Just my two cents... |

RE: Gettin a new rest...
The guy at the pro shop had nothing but good things to say about the Spot Hogg Whammy rest, so i bought it. Its a drop away and it is AMAZING! I really like it.

RE: Gettin a new rest...
I'd try out the limb saver drop. Then again I know what I want in a rest and could quickly tell if it would fit the bill. Haven't seen one yet but it looks as if it would be the ticket. Buy what ever from a place you can return it. Most places even though they claim 100% satisfaction are anything but. Cabela's is a good place to buy from. There are some storesI could mention to avoid. One of the biggest things that burns me is a product tht the manufacture must know is crap, but they swindle guys into buying one and know they have no way of returning it after they try it. They can kiss my ... and go out of business.

RE: Gettin a new rest...
I had a WB and now I have the QAD Ultra and love it. Why would anyone want ANY contact with shaft and fletching when launching an arrow? Just doesn't make any sense to me. With the QAD Ultra you get total arrow containment just like the WB AND the benifits of a drop away. How can you beat that!

With the QAD Ultra you get total arrow containment just like the WB AND the benifits of a drop away. How can you beat that! The range that I frequent has mostly WB shooters. I'll bet 80-90% are using it and I'm one. This includes a lot of very experienced hunters who always get many big game animals. None of them have problems with fletching coming off or being rippled. None have trouble tuning them or their bows that contain them. None have trouble with noise or freezing bisquits or any of the other problems one hears about so frequently on these forums. The reason - the shop owner knows his stuff and sets them and the arrows up properly. There is no way in the world that tens of thousands of hunters can be having no complaints if the rest had inherent problems. Those having trouble simply don't know how to properly set one up, or how to properly fletch an arrow so they work with one. I have no problem with anyone who prefers a different rest, but to suggest that the WB is going to automatically cause trouble, is wrong. |

RE: Gettin a new rest...
Use a QAD Ultra drop-away rest.:DI love it!!!!:D

RE: Gettin a new rest...
I never suggested that the WB would cause fletching problems with tearing or coming off I was talking more about speed or a slight loss of it from the contact with the wiskers. I guess it like they say...........To each his own! |
RE: Gettin a new rest...
For Full containment I would look no further than the Hostage by Bowtech. It has all the advantages of the WB without all the fletch contact. As far as Drop Away rests there is none better than the Limb Driver.;)
