    Sell me on your fall-away / driven arrow rest of choice.

    Just ordered my 32" Alphamax in the Bone Collector Edition

    It's The Bone Collector Edition Camo riser and Black limbs. But hopefully in the not to distant future it will be dipped in Ultimate Camo.

    G5 makes a drop away that fits awesome on the Hoyts and comes in AP. I took my Trophy Ridge off and so far the G5 is shooting well and is quiet.

    Congrats on your new order. :hater: :d :d If business was how it used to be I would be ordering that bow as well with the QAD ULTRA HD rest. I do like the color scheme options on the BC series AlphaMax. How long do you have to wait?? We want pics and details of complete setup when you get'er :cool: Oh and of course a shooting review.

    I love the Alphamax. I currently use a Limbdriver on my 07 Vectrix, but am really wanting to check out the QAD Ultra HD for this next year....not sure if Ima mess with switching out or not.

    That bow should be a beaut...and I imagine if she gets the UC dip, it'll be staying around for a while? ;) You must have been as impressed as I was.

    I shot one last week up at SwampCollie's shop and it's just an awesome bow. As soon as I can afford the bow I'm going to put my QAD HD on it. I know that a lot of guys like the Limbdriver and I think that it looks like a solid design but I personally wanted a full containment rest. Then Dan gave me a price on it that wasn't much more than a Ripcord.

    On my AM35- I had to go with a Trophy Taker- no matter what I did (and believe me I did everything), I could not get rid of a contact issue using the Limbdriver- and the bow would scattergun. Only when I used some feather fletched arrows did the groups tighten up (but the contact was still there).

    The Limbdriver has worked flawlessly on 3 other bows I've had it on with vanes and even trying it Cock feather down (yeesh- profanity filter??). I can only surmise there was a nock travel issue with the Alphamax causing the arrow to be slammed down toward the launcher/shelf.

    G5 on mine. Works good, but I prefer the full containment of the QAD's but it was hitting the shelf and making a loud racket so I switched to the G5

    Man everyone digs the Quad huh? Jeff got me scared on the Limbdriver! Bear in mind I have and love the Muzzy zero effect now. But I wanna try something else.

    Well, I wouldn't be scared of the LD so much as the AM35 ;)
