Have used both QAD HDX and Ripcord Code Red
I believe the HDX took a tiny bit more tinkering to get it spot on, but after that, it is flawless. 
They are now making the HDX for specific bows, but those are spendy.  Love that the HDX stays up in place on slow let down.

Ripcord is a great rest for the price.

Bought a Revolution for my son in law for Christmas 2012, not a bad rest for the price, but I'm glad I bought it for my son in law instead of me.  :)
Seems to work ok, but kinda big and clunky.  Guess I like stuff that is compact and efficient. 

Have yet to try a limb driven rest, gonna do that some day. 


Spent most of my $$ on huntin, fishin & retrievin dogs, the rest I just pretty much wasted.

Mine is working out really well too.  It's the best archery equipment change I've made since I upgraded to a faster bow and I'm shooting more consistently than ever.  I paid $40 for mine.

I'm not nearly an experienced as most of these guys, but my Ripcord Code Red works great. Setup and adjustment is quick and easy.

Its also worth noting that they have excellent customer service should you ever need support - I lost a piece to my rest, and they hd a new one out to me within a few short days.

Since my last post, I have a Ripcord SOS on a new bow.  Still miss the rest staying in place onlet down as on the HDX and the SOS makes a fairly loud audible click when I draw the bow.  My HDX is virtually silent.

I have one of the very first SOS rests.  No click that I have noticed.  Wonder what they changed!  Might have to call them and ask about that.

I have not liked the Ultra Rests since they started the whole Lock Down feature.  Though I have decided I like the Original Red Ripcord better than the SOS.
He asked, Do you ever give a short simple answer?  I replied, "Nope."

Upon putting a fair number (hundreds) of arrows through the SOS, the click is barely audible.  Not sure what changed, but I can't hear it at all without my hearing aids and it's just barely audible with them in.  :chuckle: 
Ya might not wanna go by what I hear.
