    alright i just bought a pse mach x and it has a 4 pin top gun sight and it has a stabalizer, back stop and a drop away sight but im not sure what type. im not sure if its cause im just not used to draing yet or what but the arrow seems to fall out quite a bit, i was wanting some opinions on rests, broadheads, and releases. the release i am using now is a antique trophy hunter tht uses the ball bearings lol, im not wanting to spend a whole bunch of money, does any one have a apache rest? ive heard good and bad, please leave me your opinion,
    thanks, Cole

    im using the apache. so far its the best rest ive ever used. i really dont know what could be bad about it. its solidly constructed, very quiet, almost 360 degree containment, easy to tune, and you cant beat the price for a great drop away. only thing i could think of, just like any other rest. does it fit on your bow with out to much messing around? i can say it went on my bow as sweet as could be. true fire makes some nice releases. you can pick a nice one up for less than $35. as far as a bh. you need to know what your bow can do as far as using an expandable. you need enough KE to push those bh's. but for the most part its just personal preference. if you have lower KE get a COC (cut on contact) bh. lot of guys on here like magnus stingers

    how long have you had your apache? cause i hear tht thee biggest problem with the drop away is they break quite often, and with the ultra rest pro it has a lifetime warranty. thanks for the help i appreciate it

    ive had it on all year. shot at least 100 times. never with a problem. ive used a drop away for a while now and only had a problem with one. the trophy ridge drop away. but all's i had to do was replace the spring. but that rest was a totally different design. this rest is built well. i know other people on this site use it as well. i see your new here. so WELCOME!! we've had other threads on this rest. thats how i bought my apache :)

    I have a trophy taker (drop away) that I have put about 600-750 arrows through & have had no trouble with it. paid $49.99 for it.

    my buddy bought the trophy taker with 360 containment. very similar to the apache. he seem to like it. but he hasn't put that many arrows through it.
