CraigK Report post Posted January 1, 2021 Looking to buy a new rest... Anyone have experience with either the Ripcord or QAD LD or HDX? Any input is greatly appreciated. Kurt Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
creed_az_88 Report post Posted January 1, 2021 I've had the same qad for 10 years. Never skips a beat. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
az41mag Report post Posted January 1, 2021 Another vote for QAD. I've used them for years without issues. I personally like having the top bar above the arrow rest that contains the arrow. Some other drop away rests don't seem to have that. I've found it useful when trying to position for a shot around trees and brush when you've already nocked an arrow. Don't want the arrow getting pulled off the rest by a tree limb. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CraigK Report post Posted January 1, 2021 Thanks for the responses. Which model are you guys using? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
az41mag Report post Posted January 1, 2021 One is the HDX and the other one is prior to the HDX designation, (probably 10 years old). Both have been great. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

knothead Report post Posted January 4, 2021 I've had both and never had a problem with either one. Both worked flawlessly like they should. I currently have the QAD but I would feel very comfortable going back to rip cord. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
azcouesandelk Report post Posted January 4, 2021 Between the QAD and Ripcord definitely go QAD. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
