Im thinking about goin to a drop away from my whisker biscuit I know there more accurate and speed up your arrow but I think it would be something to go wrong does anyone have any trouble with the Ripcords failing to fall??

Whenever there are moving parts, and that includes bows with just a string , then something can go wrong. If you are conscientious about your equipment and check it before, during and after your hunts then you should not have any troubles. Granted there are always exceptions and exceptional circumstances but, under normal circumstances, your equipment, regardless of what it is, should not give you any trouble if it is properly taken care off. Flashlights do you no good in the dark if you fail to check the batterys .

Most of todays drop aways are very good. There are a couple, like the Ripcord and the QAD, which I have not used yet, that do have a bit more going on inside that may fail. But for most of them, that come up when you draw and let down when you shoot, they are really rather simple. Any fixed prong rest has a spring to hold the prongs up. The spring is simply reversed on a drop away. They have cords to pull them up, and I suppose they can and have failed. But if connected properly, the chances of failure are very slim.
