I decided to give this rest a try after reading some reviews on it.  Thought I would give a little review here.  I like that it is a capture type arrow rest that works like a fall away.

Recently I bought a 2008 Bowtech Guardian and took the NAP Quicktune 3000 off my Hoyt Trykon and put it on the Guardian.  I never could get rid of about an inch tear right when paper tuning with that set up.  Didn't seem to matter where I moved my rest to it always tore right.  Even did the baby powder trick and couldn't find any interferance.  Not sure what the deal was but the same rest shot great on my Trykon. 

I put the Sizzor rest on my Guardian today and simply set the arrow at 90deg from the string centered on the berger holes and set the center shot by eyeballing the string centered on the cams and down the arrow.  First shot through paper was a perfect bullet hole!  Shot a bunch of times through paper and every shot was a perfect bullet hole.

The rest is of high quality and seems to operate flawlessly.  It doesn't operate totally like a fall away rest.  It has two arms that capture the arrow.  When the arrow is released the two arms open like a pair of scissors.  The downward cable gets the trigger cord served to it and when your release the cord is attached to a hammer that strikes the opening mechanism on the rest.  The only reservation I have is that there is a little snap sound when the rest opens.  It wasn't noticable in my garage but I will need to shoot it outdoors to know if it is noticable enough to worry about.

Heres a link to their site where on the lower right you can check out a slow mo video of the rest in action.
