Drop away rests?

[HookDUp365]

Looking to get a drop away rest. I shoot a mathews 68lbs with gold tip arrows. Any info would be great.

Ripcord, Limbdriver, QAD Ultra, Kazaway, Trophy Taker, Muzzy ZeroEffect,are a few I'd recommend. Any of the GKF products if you can find em anymore.

I use a trophy taker pronghorn on my Guardian and it's worked flawlessly. It was very easy to set up and quiet to boot. From what I've read and experienced so far, these TTs are very reliable.

I use a Trophy Ridge Drop Zone with both my Mathews Switchback and PSE X-Force. No complaints.

Been using one all season no issues with containment, then again I do not stalk, but for treestands and ground blinds thumbs up! This is the easiest dropaway to set up period and it does not affect timing since it is not attached to the cables. MeanV has a good price. I'm not sure if KD sells them.

Ripcord or the QAD LD
I like them the best

I shoot with a rip cord and have a matthews switchbak

[LXHunter]

I've got a Ripcord on my LX and Spott Hogg Whammy on my Switchback XT. They both shoot well but my preference is the Whammy.

I just installed a Zero Effect on my LX . So far it's the best drop away I have used .

I agree 100%. I am playing around with one right now and love it. I am concerned about containment when I go back out west for elk, but I love how the Limb Driver works.

I have walked the property with and arrow nocked, I just keep my finger on the shaft. I do not use the stick on holders due to clearance issues; I have the rest on a 1993 Hoyt SuperSlam. If you get the right holder you can turn the bow upside down and not loose the arrow. The difference this rest made has been incredible.I can use as much helical as I want to now for more forgiving arrows. Anyone worried about the activating cord tangling don't. It has not come into question this season and I don't expect it to...ever.

i have a trophy taker and I like it. It is an older style and i wish there was a keeper for the arrow, but I have had great results with it and no plans to change.

I like my QAD Ultrarest, will try limbdriver next.

I HAD a Muzzy Zeor Effect on my Mathews Outback until this last fall and I loved it! My bow started making a noise when I drew back. I wear hearing aids in both ears, so identifying the noise wasn't possible for me.
I took it to the local archery shop and he pulled the bow back and instantly stated it was my rest and that it needed to be replaced.
He didn't have a Muzzy, so I opted for a Trophy Taker. I liked the Muzzy and had it tuned so that my field tips and broadheads flew identical.
We got the Trophy setup and I took off. Well one of the first things that I learned about the difference between the Muzzy and the Trophy, was that if you lay the bow down with an arrow nocked and pick it up and shoot it, the arrow is going to go somewhere but not as you intended. With the Muzzy, the arrow would always fall back to the center of the rest. On the Trophy, I have to put it back on the center. I learned that lesson the hard way. Two hours looking for an arrow in the woods.
THEN..... while hunting "down below" I had the extreme unfortunate problem of a broken front sight. I took the bow to the only archery shop that I knew would be open. I showed the tech the bow and also told him that the noise that was thought to be my Muzzy rest was still there. He pulled the bow back one (1) time and said, "that noise?". Said that he'd show me how to fix it in less than two minutes. Seems that the connections of the cable at the top of the bow, has swiveling cams. He lubed them and NOISE GONE! He stated, "Mathews 101". New front sight installed also.
So........ when I can get back out in the spring, the Trophy Taker is coming off and the Muzzy is going back on.

I used to shoot the MZE too. Great rest. The only reason I left it was due to shooting a bow that did not have the right type of cable guard setup. I would have no problem returning to the MZE again.
