    Who makes the best fall-away rest?

    Right now I shoot a QAD Ultrarest HDX and it's great. I am just wondering what everybody thinks about this subject!

    I had a QAD ultrarest, but I switched to a Ripcord. Mostly because I thought the QAD was loud. I have had zero issues with the Ripcord, But I had zero complaints about the mechanical performance of the QAD. Im happy with the Ripcord.

    I shoot a Trophy Taker Shakey Hunter. It was the first fall away rest I ever used and I have never had any problems with it. Two years ago I put the same rest on my new Hoyt Maxis. I'm not saying it is the best but it has worked well for me on both my bows.

    Trophy taker! I don't know how you would have fletching contact! The smackdown pro should be flat out awesome, can't wait to try it on my omen pro!

    Have always loved my Ripcord. I had a prototype of the Trophy Ridge Revolution before it came out, and it was a great rest also.

    I like the trophy taker smack down the best. I've tried the qad's, code red, and also have a limb driver pro v.
