    Yes the fall away rest is more forgiving for form flaws the biquite is a full contact rest the fall away is a non contact wich makes it more forgiving.

    I am also a big fan of the QAD. I am currently using the pro series and it has been working great. It would definetly be worth your while to at least try one out. I also like the ripcord alot. The only difference is that the ripcord will release on a slow let down. Both are great rests and forgiving as well. Some either love em or hate em but you should definetly give em a try.

    I'd try the QAD HD. I like it very much. I did have WB before switching to the drop away. I tended to notice tighter groups and better accuracy with the drop away and no vane wear as compared to the WB. The containment of the QAD is nice as well. Just got my GTO in and decided to put a Limb Driver on it. I don't think you can go wrong with either drop away and you'll see that most people have positive things to say about both of them. That being said, I did like my WB rest and it had it's good points. I just noticed that a lot of people were saying drop aways were the way to go, so I tried QAD out and liked the results.

    i have the qad pro,ld, and hd and love every one of them. best hunting rest available imo. i also have the apa twister safari and i like it to. not sure why your getting fletching contact i never had trouble with that.for hunting id use any of the ones i have listed but since you had truoble with the apa id definately go for the qad. just read the directions before you put it on.

    I played with both the qad and the ripcord and liked the ripcord much better. No fletching problems and super quick.

    I've used a Drop Zone for a couple years and they work great but I also wanted full containment for hunting. Put on a Kazaway about 3 weeks ago and it seems to work great. I haven't read any negative comments from guys that use them.

    I had the QAD and it was nice, but I had some problems in the begining and if it were in a hunting situation, I would have been screwed. PUT a LD on my GTO and this thing is as easy as it gets. I think LD will be on all my bows, Im tired of headaches

    Yep that's one dandy rest and the full containment is just that. Mine ties into the cable slide so there is no tension on the down cable. Just ask Michael how well I like this rest
