Hamskea rest question

[Commando]

Are hamskea rest supposed to be set up as limb driven rests or can the be set up as a cable drive?
What's the benefit of having a limb driven rest? Seems to me the would just have a bigger cord to get caught up on something. Thanks

You can tie limb driven rests into your cables. I've always attached them to the limbs and have not had an issue with the longer cord though.
