JLW Report post Posted May 11, 2020 anyone using the ripcord max? I definitely like the limb driven rests which I don't believe the rip cord is. currently using the smackdown pro. I know lots of people use the qad ultrarest and have heard nothing but good things and a plus for limb driven for me. would like to hear from anyone using the ripcord max....... good bad and ugly right now leaning towards qad.

Maverick351 Report post Posted May 13, 2020 I would take the ripcord max over the qad but neither are limb driven. Stay with a smackdown, limbdriver or a hamskea if you want limb driven. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JLW Report post Posted May 18, 2020 apparently I was looking at the ripcord LOK. says you can cock the arm in the up position and cord attaches to the limb. reviews say to change the cord you have to take the rest apart...no thanks. james Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dano562 Report post Posted June 12, 2020 Rip cord does make a limb driven rest. It's called the S.o.s. if interested I have one for sale Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's called the S.o.s. if interested I have one for sale After researching a bit I did see this and have decided not to go limbdriven, which right now I shoot a smackdown pro limbdriven rest, I had an issue when I drew back and was a bit tired and didn't look at my arrow when I finally struggled to break it over and lined up the shot and squeezed the trigger. My arrow went about 15yd down into the ground. It took like 15 minutes to figure out what happened. somehow when I drew back my arrow came off the cradle and whe the fork went up it missed my arrow shaft and I din't notice it so total bonehead dumbass thing I did. I think now I'd like to be able to cock it in the upright so looking at the LOK and the max...limbdriven is kinda secondary now. Thanks for the offer!

Delw Report post Posted June 20, 2020 Years back I bought the ripcord Daughter had the quad pro. I had nothign but problems with the ripcord even they even put 2 others ripcords on my bow but still had problems. (bowtech experiance) so I switched to a quad, daughter has 3 quads one them on her 2 hunting bows and bought a 3rd to try it out on one of her target bows. she dropped about 6-7 points (low mid 290's) score wise with the quad and lost her x count by half. which in all honesty aint to bad for a drop away rest on a precision target bow.
