RE: drop away rest
Jeff - thanks dude.
Sounds good and I will buy a few and check em out. I need to find a drop away I can sell with confedence on the Bowtechs. The Drop Zone and TT and QT fallaway .............I can't. I have found the Muzzy to work well (If there is enough cable slide travel).

I would give at least one a try and see what ya think. The bow tech at the shop knows all the little tricks to get 'em set-up right (how much tension/length in the cable, etc)... let me know if ya have any probs, and I'll pick his brain. I admittedly didn't set mine up myself (maybe thats why it works so good? [:-]), cos' I left the bow with them to get it lasered and leveled.

Thank you for the reply, could you please give me the full unabbreviated name of the rest you suggest (TKO). As I cannot find an outlet for it.

The Trophy Taker (TT) is made by Trophy Taker.
the Drop Zone (DZ) is made by Trophy Ridge
The QuickTune series (QT2000 and QT4000) are made by New Archery Products (NAP)
The rest I'm suggesting is the Quality Archery Designs (QAD) Ultra.
Hope that helps

RE: drop away rest
Cussword, Jeff, I just had my mind all set on going with a WB this fall...
Cuss you... just... Cuss you...
Did you wrap fleece or moleskin around the delrin launcher? If not, any plans to do so, or not at all necessary?
I suppose it'd still be quiet with ACCs?

Yeesh...some thanks I get
Seriously. This is the best dropaway I've used yet. I cannot compare it to the MZE or a DZ since I've not used them personally, but among the ones I have used, the QAD works much better IME. Like I said, I was skeptical. My shop has been selling the heck out of them, and if they were not working, they wouldn't sell 'em..I'm not going to say it will work perfectly on every bow, or for everyone, 'cos there are always variables in individual set-ups, but I talked to a bunch of customers at the shop who had been shooting them for several months and not one of them complains about it..quite the oppposite in fact :shrug:
The only "real" problems I've seen is not enough windage on some of the BowTechs, and on the Hoyt Tec risers, you cannot get a normal allen wrench in it to adjust the centershot, so they (the tech @ the shop) custom cut a bunch of single- allen key wrenches so you can, and give them to the customer when they buy the rest/have it set-up.

RE: drop away rest
You knew that I was getting one, Mr. "Seen this yet?". And I told ya I'd give ya the straight skinny after I'd shot the pi$$ out of it. And I believe you answered "please do".
This rest has intrigued me for sometime. I'm just too cheap to be the guinea pig
Knowing what you posted, it will get a hard hard look from this point forward. Let's see, Father's day is coming up...

RE: drop away rest
Rangeball, I took the fleece they used on mine off, because slits are cut into it to make it form to the U shaped launcher. Well one of the slits was lined up right where my arrow sits so I tried to adjust it and it wouldn't stick the same. So I cut a piece of moleskin about 1cm wide by 1 1/2 long and put it right on the bottome of the U. I then cut thin pieces for the side. It works really well! My pro shop is selling them like crazy as well. One of the guys that works there said that out of 45 that he has put on this year 23 of them shot bullet holes right when he put them on.

This is the best drop-away I have ever seen.
The new HTM.
It is a monster strong built drop-away.
I'm getting one for my Accu-Riser Type 2 when it's available in silver.
It can be used conventional also by fliping a switch.
