What drop away rest?
Ok guys I'm sure i'll get a few different responses here, But, what is the best drop-away rest?
Of particular intrest is on Bowtechs such as the Allegiance.
I'd prefer it be simple enough to keep frequent adjustments simple or not neccesary.
Primary use -hunting secondary use -indoor competition
Or convince me that a drop-away is a fad and recommend a good non drop away.

RE: What drop away rest?
As an additional question....
I see that drop aways such as the Trophy Taker series do not have teflon or a covering on the launcher? DOes that mean they make that metal on metal sound when drawing? can you cover it with moleskin or something?

I really like the Golden Key TKO. Tough to beat for the price at around $50. I found it to be fairly easy to set up; not any more or less complicated than a traditional style rest.
And the great thing about it is that you can shoot it as a drop away, as a standard prong style launcher, or use the "lizard toungue" type target launchers. So if you decide you don't like it as a drop away, or if you decide to switch from a drop away for hunting to a target style launcher for indoor, you won't need to invest in another rest.
I believe the rest that BigPapa has posted is the Golden Key Infiniti. A bit more expensive than the TKO but it's micro-adjustable. Same 3 in 1 concept though.
