Arrow rest, Which one????

[KG243]

I have an old bow and want to get back into bow hunting but can not afford a new set-up. I have an older bow that is in good working order but I want to get a new arrow rest for it as all it has is on of those stick on plastic ones. Thanks for the information ahead of time.

Bring it to a local archery pro shop and have them put on and paper tune a whisker biscuit for you. It is Fool proof and is the number one most reliable rest that is sold. Plus as rest goes it is fairly affordable and 49.99.

your gonna get a lot of different answer, i have had a biscuit and will never ever put one back on my bow, while drawing it makes noise and scared deer away so i got with dropaway rests i like them and you can get some good ones for a decent price

[DonBo]

I agree with mrklean, get any kind of rest you want as long as it is a dropaway.

You can get the base level QAD dropaway for 49.99. Check out used items too. SInce the surge in dropaways, people have been upgrading.

drop away for sure. I put a QAD on and LOVE it but I'm sure other brands are good too.

Just get anything drop away the micro tune on some of the spendy models are nice but heck Im still shooting the first year trophy takers on two of my bows and have had no need to switch.

i went from a drop away to a whisker bisket. i will be putting my drop away back on, it just seems to work better and i really do not have to worry if the fletch is lined up correctly. the biggest thing with the drop away is to put some mole skin or cover it to silence the arrow rest. that way if you accidently bang the arrow laying it in the rest, it has a cushion. good luck

Drop away rest is the way to go.Helps with you accuracy and silent.

If it works, keep using it. There's not going to be a dramatic change in speed or anything going to a drop-away for you.

I have an older pearson with magnesium limbs and it was state of the art back in those days. I made 2 upgrades and that's using a wire stick on rest, and an arrow holder. The arrow holder keeps it on the rest just fine. It sticks on the opposite side of the riser, a flexible band with an arrow clip holds the arrow in place.

If you do get another rest get a spring loaded flipper with 2 prongs.

But I think you're fine how it is.

Thanks guys for all the input I think I will be going with QAD drop away as I found on in LH version for $45. Thanks for all the help!

[psepuncher]

you'll like using the QAD

If you do get one let us know what you think.

I know alot of people are happy with a QAD
