    Im new here so ill start with a review on a bad experience i just had a few days ago. So i purchased a g5 halo rest. It was cheap pricewise which i liked. That was all i liked though. For starters the whole thing is basically plastic. Second the tounges that hold the arrow are 2 wide for fletching to go inbetween without rubbing vanes really bad. Third u have to use straight vanes in order to keep from breaking the tail of the vanes on quickspins. Overall i rate this rest a 2 of 10. Id use it on a kids bow but noway i would think of firing a dozen through it of my own arrows. I shot 10 through it and it was about 6 too many in my opinion. Hope this helps someone from making a bad choice such as mine. Guess u get what u pay for. There is light at the end of my tunnel though my qad is on it way :nana:

    Have the same rest. I agree with you. Too cheap to be true.
