I'm very fortunate in that my lovely wife has given me the thumbs up to go ahead and get my new bow when I get back from my next deployment to Alabama to work on oil spill response efforts (20 Sept-12 Oct). I was orginally planning on stripping all but the quiver off my current bow, since the rest, sight, and stabilizer are all no more than 2 years old and in great shape (rest is a little over 2 years old, i think). However, after giving some thoughts to the pros/cons, I'm thinking I'm going to upgrade my rest. I currently have the Trophy Taker Shakey fall-away and mostly love it. I've had a couple of instances, though, where my arrow fell off at inopportune moments so I'm thinking of going with a full-containment rest. It seems one of those would be more appropriate for the still hunting and spot/stalk hunting I do out here where you need to keep an arrow knocked all the time for "those moments". After doing a little research of my own, I decided to throw my thoughts out to you all and ask for your feedback. I'm looking at the QAD Ultra-Rest HD, QAD Ultra-Rest Pro (what's the difference b/w the two?), and the Trophy Taker Xtreme Full Containment Top Slot. The latter two are more in the price range I was thinking, but if there is some benefit to paying the $30 extra for the QAD HD over the Pro or Trophy Taker, I'm all ears. Or if there is something I missed and should look at, please speak up!
And before I forget, I will be living vicariously through you all during those 23 days and counting on you all to help keep me motivated when the days get long (14-15 hour days for 21 straight). So good luck in the upcoming weeks and I look forward to seeing your posts about your success and your kids' success! :way:
