Limbdriver pro-v or trophy taker smackdown pro. Limbdriven is the way to go. You will never have any timing issues or fletching contact. Super easy to setup. Some people will serve or tie in the cord for a qad and then are screwed if it fouls up in the field. If I have a problem with the cord on my pro-v, it is so simple I could use a boot lace to repair it it I wanted. Don't like the cord that goes all the way to the limb? Why is it any different than the control cables?

Just personal preference. Even if that long cord is pre stretched, if it is snagged by brush it can and will change the timing of the rest. I have seen it. Take a cable driven trophy taker and tugg on the cord reasonably hard, it wont move. Now do the same thing to a limb driven cord and a lot of the time the rest will have raised up a tad, which changes how late the limb pulls the launcher down, which can change point of impact. This got in my head and bothered me, and if I dont have 100% confidence in something, I dont hunt with it. Awesome rest, just not for me.

That is what it comes down to. There is not much modern equipment that won't get the job done if used properly. It is mostly personal preference.
