Looks pretty tall to me. If your fletching will clear that you probably don't need a drop a way.

Also I believe most drop aways come with an arrow holder or guide.

Good luck on your product though, I know some that would be interested it in.

I personally use two small diameter shafts about an inch long under some mole skin. Works pretty good for me.

I have one on my bow...they have been out for a while. Just not as bulky. How does it work for you?

It works perfectly and everyone out there so far that has purchased one has loved it as well. The material that is supplied with most drop away rests are simply something to keep the arrow lined up with the rest but if you tilt the bow it will slide off. With this one you can turn the bow upside down and not lose the arrow. Plus it stays as flexible in freezing temps . It looks bulkier than it actually is . Come to think of it , it actually acts like a vibration suppressor as well because it is made from very flexible rubber (hmmmm) Thanks for the comments.

If you use a Muzzy Zero you don't need one. That said, my only thought of negative possibilities would be if the felt got wet from rain or snow in cold weather and froze??? Just brainstorming. I do like the idea of the felt and if the rubber is substantially softer it could only help.

I have a diamondback and have the holder in front. I can turn my bow upside down and shake it and my arrow is not coming off. You can get them for like 5 bucks.

Yes , with the cats cradle , you can turn it upside down but it will release upon shaking as the rubber is soft. I wanted it that way so that the arrow wouldn't struggle out of it when drawn back and then pop up possibly off of the rest.
