RE: drop aways on bowtechs
I've got a Drop Zone on my 2004 Patriot Single Cam and as my first foray into drop aways, I've been given no reason to consider anything else.
I had what I thought could have been some early noise issues when I actuated the launcher arm manually, but it turned out to be inaudible during an actual shot. I've had mine completely apart and have set and reset it many times and it's solid. Arrow flight is a thing of beauty as well. It's pricey and it takes a hit there, but I figure when you add up all the positives, it was worth the price.
PS: Plenty of left/right adjustment available after getting it set to shoot bullets with 7595 and 400 spined Gold Tips. From what I understand, the Duelly's riser is thicker(?), but it still seems to have plenty of room on the horizontal axis.

I have had the GKF Mirage, TT Shakey Hunter and now a GKF Golden Premier Dropaway on my Liberty with relatively favorable results in all cases. I have issues with the individual rests but not in terms of their "relationship" with the bow.

I have a Trophy Taker on my '04 Patriot Dually. It is one of the extended windage bar versions. The standard version did not have enough windage adjustment for the Dually. It works great. I have the standard launcher as I have read that some had clearance issues with the Shakey Hunter model. Great rest, simple, durable, easy to set up.

What you might have to do with the MZE on the 04's is take off the overdraw plate and it will work just fine.
Here is a pic of the MZE on my 04 Black Knight.
Another rest that works great on the 04's is the BoDoodle Game Dropper I put on on the Black Knight I got last week for 3d and I tell you what it looks like if it is molded on.
I will post some pics later on when I have a bit more time.
