Default Best rest for the liberty????????????

Help me out here if you can, please:

I started out with an original trophy taker on my liberty. It has some noise issues, so I put on a Vital Bow Gear fall away, mainly because I like the arrow holder. I have been messing around trying to tune it. I had major fishtailing, so I tried paper tuning, and the tears indicated I needed to move the rest to the right. I finally got things where they should be (or so I thought), but the rest was way off center to the right, and I still got the occasional fishtail. I tried the powder trick, and even with the cock vane up, I get major contact with the rest when it was all the way down, mainly on the arrow holder. So, I took the arrow holder off, which basically put me back to the same function and capabilities as the trophy taker. I ended up putting the trophy taker back on, but I am looking for something that holds the arrow better. I am considering going to the wisker biskit, but am not sure which way to go. Who's got some good suggestions?

Thanks in advance

Bill

I'd go with the B-2 whisker biscuit if I were you. Just center the rest and set the nocking point at 90degrees and it should shoot fine for you.

Good luck hunting!

From some of the reports I have heard from Matt/PA the APA Ultimate Twister works real good on the Liberty.

As much as I love the QAD I would not recomend it on the BowTechs without seeing if you can get enough centershot adjustment first.

If you want a simple, and quieter than the TT drop-away I'd recommend the TKO. It also holds the arrow pretty well.

I had a TT-shakey hunter on my justice didnt like it at all. put a TKO and it works great.
I had to move the vertical arm to the other side of the horizontal arm to get center shot
but that only took a few seconds, great rest.

I realize I know less than pretty much everyone else on here - so take this with a grain of salt - but I really like the NAP QT4000. It's quiet and I like how it cradles the arrow nicely all the way from the down position to fully upright.

Well, I went with the B2 deluxe.. so far, so good. Did some paper tuning and shooting, and so far, so good! Thanks for the input.
