Title: What arrow rests?
Post by: 270Shooter on July 18, 2013, 12:44:40 PM: I am thinking about upgrading my arrow rest, I currently have a trophy taker SL extreme on my bow. I have heard good things about the rip cords. What are you guys shooting or what would you recommend?

Post by: Ibcnurun on July 18, 2013, 04:08:14 PM: Switched to a QAD Ultrarest HDX this year.

My Ripcord worked fine mechanically but I kept snapping that long, skinny plastic arrow retainment arm off. It tended to snag and break when I strapped my bow to my pack, or it hooked on brush and broke during the low prone crawl during a stalk. It was a repeating issue with me and a huge suprise when you go to draw after a long stalk and the arrow jumps out of the rest rattling aimlessly. I put up with it for a few seasons, but that rest may be a little fragile for some hunting styles. :twocents:

Im lethal out to 60 and where I hunt I probably cant even get a clear shot that far. But I do like the durability of it and the fact that I dont gotta hold my arrow in when its knocked and im traipsing through the woods.

Biscuit FOR LIFEEEEEE hahaha
