    QAD HDX is top notch. It was recommended by many on here a few months ago when I got my No Cam. I was using a Whisker Biscuit. Definately glad I made the switch.

    QAD HDX. The new Ripcord ACE seems pretty nice too but I have no experience with it.

    I gotta throw in my $.02 for the Schaffer Opposition Light arrow rest. You don't have to reset it after every shot, just nock your arrow and draw. It's a full containment rest that's rock solid. Check out the YouTube videos.

    Absolutely the only ones who like them, or so it would seem.

    The limb drivers are great rests, but so are the qad hdx. Can't go wrong with either one.

    I will Take a limb driven rest over a cable driven rest any day.
    No torque on the cables from the rest, an easy repair without a bow press if you have to replace the cable . The best part though is how stiff they are, they allow you to impart plenty of downward pressure which makes for a super forgiving tune. Much like the stiffness of blade on target sets....

    I picked up a cmax but I have to wait a while to see if I like it. Or if someone wants to they can buy it off me because I'm more interested in the Apache Carbon.

    I got a qad HDX on my carbon spyder turbo and a rip cord code red on my carbon element. If I had to pick I'd go with qad all day long.
