the man Posted November 24, 2012 Share Posted November 24, 2012 What does everyone else shoot for an arrow rest? Have used a whisker biscuit for a few years now and thinking about making a switch to a drop away rest. Suggestions? What kind of sight do you use and how do you like it? Just want to make some upgrades after I'm done hunting.Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sportfish Posted November 24, 2012 Share Posted November 24, 2012 I really like the Vaportrail limb driver Pro V rest . I have had afew Rip cords and biscuits ,but think the Pro V is the only rest for me now ! Check them out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeff13 Posted November 24, 2012 Share Posted November 24, 2012 I've got a QAD ultra rest hdx and I really like it, and my sight is a G5 optix xr2 has a single pin and one floater. I like the single pin out to 30 yards I really have no need for the floater, I don't ever plan on taking a shot over 30 yards where that floating pin would come into play. It's fun to play with practicing at longer ranges though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gopher_nation Posted November 24, 2012 Share Posted November 24, 2012 I also run an Ultrarest HDX and like it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
no bait nate Posted November 24, 2012 Share Posted November 24, 2012 I switched from a whisker biscut to a QAD ultra-rest with Lock Down and love it. It improved my accuracy to the point where I am rubbing arrows at 25 yds constantly. It has been the most noticeable improvement to my bow after I had done new arrows, broadheads, sights, and vibration dampening accessories, and it has made the biggest difference by far. Highly recommended from me! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
koonie Posted November 24, 2012 Share Posted November 24, 2012 I have the QAD ultra rest on my bow. I'd say we sell twice as many QADs as any other drop away rest. They've been rock solid for us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
surewood Posted November 24, 2012 Share Posted November 24, 2012 I have an Alpine Archery. Think it's called whisper flite. I payed 50$ 5 years ago and not one problem. Stays where it's suppose to and shoots great. Think they're 40$ online now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IceHawk Posted November 24, 2012 Share Posted November 24, 2012 Qad ultra rest here works great love it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stratosman Posted November 24, 2012 Share Posted November 24, 2012 Can't go wrong with either a Ripcord or QAD, I have the Ripcord and love it... my buddies all have the QAD and love theirs... so...Sights, well there are a ton of options out there as well, I really like the Black Gold sights and that's what I have tied on my bow. Spott Hogg is another great line of sights, my buddy has the 7 deadly pins model and it's a fantastic sight. Spendy, but sweet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DonBo Posted November 24, 2012 Share Posted November 24, 2012 As you can see from the responces, there are many good drop-aways out there. I shoot a Trophy Taker myself, but whichever one you decide on, just make sure it has full containment. That means you can tilt your bow in any direction, even upside down and when it comes time to draw, the rest will still pick up your shaft.

DonBo Posted November 25, 2012 Share Posted November 25, 2012 Buddy of mine has had nothing but trouble with his Limb Driver. Fortunately, because they are local, they've given him good customer service. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meat-Run Posted November 26, 2012 Share Posted November 26, 2012 NAP Apache has been good for me. There's a lot of good drop down rests you need to find one in your budget and go with it.MR Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snoozebutton Posted November 26, 2012 Share Posted November 26, 2012 QAD here too and wouldn't change it if you paid me (well, maybe if it was enough I would.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elusivecrappiecatcher Posted November 30, 2012 Share Posted November 30, 2012 QAD Ultra Rest HDX is what I shoot. I was going to go with the rip cord but I liked the feature that if you let off on the QAD the prong would still stay up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
