I don't like the WB. Makes noise on the draw and over time can mess up the fletchings.

QAD Ultra HD rest is the way to go. Might be a little pricey, but its worth it.

I've read a bunch of reviews on the QAD Hd everyone seems to love it, the price is what is keeping me from it.

I did a google on WB and found a very interesting comparison between it and the capture rest from Katawba. I think anyone useing a WB should read this article, I know I may be changing from the WB to the CR.

I've had great luck with the Trophy Ridge Revolution..... at least until my cable snapped with my bow in full draw and the rest in capture position. That was UGLY.
Shoot low boys, they're riding shetland ponies! Lewis Grizzard I was actually laughing at myself at how little self control I have.
Let a nice rack walk into range and I lose it.

DHR, The only thing with the QAD HDx is that the top bar will hit Blazer vanes just a tad on the release. I bent my bar up, so that it won't hit. I wish they'd redo the mold for the upper bar to be more domed. Putting the off vane down will hit as well, unfortunately. Other than that, I love it. The Trophy Taker is a great choice as well. Either would be very good choices.

I wouldnt recomend the $60 QAD. Go with the $100. I shot a trophy taker shakey hunter for a long time. I LOVE THEM. Just my personal opinion. I shoot a QAD now. I love it also. I would recomend those two.

I went with the $60 QAD put about 20 arrows through it so far. No complaints so yet. Would have liked to have been able to get the hdx but Christmas is coming so it's penny pinching time.
