    The arrow holder which comes with the limb driver (which looks just like the one you posted a link to from Keystone country store) works perfectly. I shot a nice antelope in Wyoming this past fall with my limb driver equipped synergy after crawling through 200 yards of sage. The arrow didn't rattle around at all.

    ...btw, my limb driver tuned 07 Synergy smoked that goat at 76yds !

    I almost forgot, here's the goat, and the bow...

    Look at that limb driver string sitting there just waiting to mess up... NOT !

    Best rest there is, plain and simple!

    I will be hunting with mine this year, I see no difference between it and my Trophy Taker for hunting. I use a little plastic arrow holder on the shelf when the bow is at rest. I have not had any issues.

    Same here.

    As it has already been pointed out, you can fix the cord yourself even in the field. A allen wrench and a spare piece of cord allows you to fix your rest anywhere anytime.

    I see the cord issue brought up numerous times, but I have never actually heard of anyone tearing one up while hunting.

    I use the same arrow holder as pictured and have had ZERO issues with my LimbDriver from Saskatchewan to Texas!!!

    actually, the little plastic rest that comes with the TT (at least the ones I've had) is only a cup, the arrow slides out of it. The one that comes with the LD actually grips the shaft. Arrow stay relativley put.

    Actually the little rubber gripper that comes with the Limbdriver grips the arrow about as tightly as possible if the arrow is to be picked up when the bow is drawn. A spring picks the arrow up and the tension of that spring needs to be set as light as possible and still lift the arrow fully. If the spring tension is set too high it will throw the arrow up in the air and the launcher arm won't float properly. Therefore if you used an arrow retention device which holds the arrow a lot tighter the rest wouldn't rise up when the bow is drawn. I can turn my bow upside down and the arrow is still retained unless I shake it.
