Best Archery Rests Picks – Review ~ Video

My 5 Best Archery Rests picks.

New York -(Ammoland.com)- Arrow rests, everyone has their own preference.

Some people I know love drop-away archery rests, others like fully enclosed stationary archery rest. One friend of mine still hunts with the classic fork prongs.

Each archery rests has its benefit. Keeping all those caveats in mind, here are my top five recommendable “Best Archery Rests”.

Quality Archery Designs Ultra-Rest HDX Archery Rests :

The Quality Archery Designs Ultra-Rest HDX is a simple, well-machined drop away archery rests which features a curved containment bar, unlike the older model I’ve shot. The small thumbwheel provides a simple way to secure the launcher quietly. Even when aiming at steep angles, the arrow stays on the felt covered launcher for consistency down range.

And don’t worry about the archery rests bouncing back, the Lock Down Technology which locks the launcher in the drop-away position provides total arrow clearance.

Downrange accuracy with the Ultra rest is fantastic and helped me improve my confidence for long western shots. Smooth and simple and can take a beating in the mountains.

New Archery Products Quiktune QT 360-Degree Capture Archery Rests:

Are you a lightweight gear freak? Tough to blame you if you are. Every ounce counts right? Even if you are just hunting your favorite stand behind the house. The NAP Quiktune QT 360-Degree Capture Arrow Rest weighs a scant 2.5 ounces and provides an unmoving archery rests option. But unlike the Sure Shot Pro, the Quicktune 360 bristles do not come in contact with the vanes, which helps preserve their lifespan and causes less arrow drag.

Product Description

Wind will not disturb your arrow as it archery rests securely on the 360Degree CaptureRest. Weight 2.5 oz.

I’ve seen these archery rests in the Eastern woods and they are another great option, especially for the treestand hunter. However, after a few years the bristles can wear down. Keep an eye on your bristles as you shoot.
