What drop away rest?
 
Ok guys I'm sure i'll get a few different responses here, But, what is the best drop-away rest?

Of particular intrest is on Bowtechs such as the Allegiance.

I'd prefer it be simple enough to keep frequent adjustments simple or not neccesary.
Primary use -hunting secondary use -indoor competition

Or convince me that a drop-away is a fad and recommend a good non drop away.

As an additional question....

I see that drop aways such as the Trophy Taker series do not have teflon or a covering on the launcher? DOes that mean they make that metal on metal sound when drawing? can you cover it with moleskin or something?

So does the Trophy Taker:)

Badatta2d just put some mole skin or fleece tape on the launcher arm and arrow holder as pictured.

Neither should have any adverse affect on speed. She'll scream either way;)

I really like the Golden Key TKO. Tough to beat for the price at around $50. I found it to be fairly easy to set up; not any more or less complicated than a traditional style rest.

And the great thing about it is that you can shoot it as a drop away, as a standard prong style launcher, or use the "lizard toungue" type target launchers. So if you decide you don't like it as a drop away, or if you decide to switch from a drop away for hunting to a target style launcher for indoor, you won't need to invest in another rest.



I believe the rest that BigPapa has posted is the Golden Key Infiniti. A bit more expensive than the TKO but it's micro-adjustable. Same 3 in 1 concept though.

The Trophy Taker Shakey Hunter is about the best hunting rest I have ever used. It works like a champ & is so rock solid it is scary! You won't go wrong with a Trophy Taker.
