Why not have the best of two worlds, a containment rest and fall away. The Ripcord and the QAD ultra rrest fills the bill. I use the QAD and it works great.

For a person that already knows so much about archery, bowhunting, and related experiences with Whitetail, after a couple of bowhunting seasons and one deer in his pouch, within another year or two you can be found sitting cross-legged in the front of a cave on a hillside wearing a archery-camo "Guru" gown, sporting long hair and a long beard.

I see...........it's OK for you to throw around the Bullsh!t claims but when someone points that same opinion back at you the tears flow like a school girl.

Give me a break

Your story was called BS by more then one member in your thread.......in a nice way. I didn't see you hurling personal insults at those guys.


Dude it was just a joke........lighten up.


You guys sound so stupid when you go to the well with the "you haven't paid your dues" bit or the "you think your an expert" crap.

#1 I have been hunting for 17+ years and been in the woods my whole life.

#2 This is my third year archery hunting.........I never said I was an expert on anything
and any and all info I have to offer could have been learned by a retarded,
diseased chimp with one eye and Alzheimer's in three years. Forgive me for not
being stupid.


You are the one blabbing on and on about the magical and mythical powers of the mature whitetail buck who can hear you throat grunt from over 1 1/4 miles away


I still laugh every time I see comments like yours as if you are only allowed to speak around here if you have your hand stamped and are part of the little boys club and have the approval of the sacred charter members seated at the round table.




You do know what drives a person who tries to make others look bad don't ya??

Look it up some time............and don't have such thin skin man I was just bustin' your balls a little dude.


Lighten up Francis

Because I Can guarantee many folks are shooting dropaways that are effecting and limiting their arrows performance much more than a WB is.......................

Amen

The "hand stamp" was replaced a couple years ago. It's actually a ring and a special hand shake now.

I know this rest seems to fly in the face of everything conventional wisdom has taught us about fletching contact but by God it just works. I have it on my main hunting bow and love it. If all I did was hunt with my bows I'd probably have it on every single one. I just love the fact that I can lay my bow across my lap if I want to and the arrow cannot fall off. I would also think that it would be excellent for anyone that stalk hunted on foot. No, it would not be my first choice for target archery. I do shoot a drop away rest a little more accurate but only at longer distances like 50 yards. I see no difference at all out to about 35 yards which is as far as I ever shoot at whitetails anyway. Also the new B2 WB with the zone specific fibers is a huge improvement in the fletching wear department. I used to trim the WB to make it thinner and easier on my fletching but it is not necessary with the new WB.

The reason why the WB is hated is as was mentioned above---it's so simple it's stupid and guys feel that it simply must be tougher than this for something to shoot great. BUT, it works, and works extremely well. Heck, I shot well with a springy years ago, and have seen perfect rounds shot with it also---talk about "contact"!

It took me awhile to "come around" on this rest too, but I'm here to tell you it works---the new B2 model significantly reduces fletching wear, and as stated before it is a HUNTING rest, so if one throws a million arrows through them and ruins vanes, well whose fault is that? Shoot a Bodoodle or GKF for 3D---I don't shoot the same bow or arrows for 3D (or any other target venue) that I do for hunting anyway--- different setups for different applications. "Happy mediums" only get you just that. The WB will more than perform well for it's intended use---I have my hunting arrows still in great shape---because I only practice with 3, then save the rest for the actual hunts. Don't need Mr. Wizard for that....

I'm one of those guys Jeff B mentioned--- I personally have no use for conventional solocams or drop away rests of any kind, but only because I have wrestled with both for years and have come to realize that both are simply not worth my time or trouble trying to get them to shoot properly and stay that way for any length of time. I originally thought these rests were just another "fad", but now that I've tested them thoroughly and installed them on virtually hundreds of bows, I can say the proof is in the pudding---people love them for their intended use, and that is the bottom line. They outsell any other hunting rest in my shop at least 3 to 1.

I know what will be on my Merlin Max Xtreme hunting setup this fall---a WB B2 QS Droptine. JMHO. Good shooting, Pinwheel 12

Probably on my Hornet too. I feel more secure in m manhood calling my bow pretty if it had a whisker biscuit on it...

Just thought I would determine if you were as inclined to sample your own recipe that you are willing to serve to others. Apparently there was too much salt for your own taste. I suggest you not serve what you also are not ready and able to eat.
