    Like mine, groups dropped from when I had my Octane Hostage.

    Tough as nails, I had a goof and dropped my stand on my bow this year and other then knocking it around a bit, it dialed right back in.

    I had to split and tie in my cord, other then that - all was as advertised.

    I was using a trorphy taker similar to the apache but I just bought the apache for $30 on a close out sale and set it up. I would have paid $130 for it. Easy to install and adjust and a much cleaner operation.
    Like good whiskey just SMOOTH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Mine arrived today, seems like a very solid rest. Cant wait to give it the full test when I put it on my bow.

    Should I get rid of my Trophy Taker X-tream FC for the Apache? I've been toying with the idea.

    Go buy it right now.No better rest than a Apache Drop away.It holds the arrow in place and rarely falls off.

    Better yet when I bought my bow the other day they swapped me rests for free.I love drop aways

    Just purchased one a couple of days ago and went out shooting this morning. My groups were tight all the way out to 40 yards. When I had my whisker biscuit I couldn't even get those groups at 10 yards. I love it.
