Default Is the Muzzy Zero Effect compatable with Bowtech VFT bows?

Just wondering if the Muzzy Zero Effect rest is compatable with the Bowtech VFT bows, specifically the Patriot VFT?

This rest is the one dropaway rest that I like and seems simple, straightforward and reliable (i.e. when the cable slider goes forward, the rest is forced down, rather than just dropping under spring tension). My concern is that with the VFT bows the limb tips move more up and down that front and back, and the cable slider doesn't move as much as a result compared to bows with more vertical limbs, and there wouldn't be enough movement to actuate the rest through its entire range of motion.

Secondly, this rest is being considered along with the Whisker Biscuit B2. If left to choose, which would you choose and why?

Thanks,

Mike

I have not attempted to install a ZE on any of my parallel limb Bowtech bows but would be curious as well. I know of several folks who have used them on Bowtech bows in the past so maybe they can chime in. At the moment I have a B2 biscuit installed on my MM VFT and am experiencing very good levels of accuracy with very little fletching wear (trimmed biscuit).

I think the one for the mathews bows would work.
