QAD Rest
There is nothing wrong with this rest, it is one, if not the best rest out there for bowhunting. With that being said, the one caution with choosing the HDX model is that it has a rather large housing. If the rear of your riser, above the is shelf is flat (like a Martin, Mathews) the housing fits snug against the riser making it a lot easier to tune. if the riser is not (like Obsession) then the housing does not lay flat against the riser. There may be other QAD models that would be better suited for your bow. Just something to think about.
I am not a Bow Tech. this has just been my experience, owning several different bows mentioned.
Good luck and happy hunting.

Works good but has problems
You have to get this thing positioned perfect on the bus cable, if you put it too far down it can pull on your buss cable causing your bow to be out of time, and if you put it too far up it will not go down on the shot and will “kick” your arrows causing them to fly weird and hit in random spots.
My suggestion is to just take it to a pro shop and have it installed but you still might need to make fine tune adjustments yourself because over time the position could change causing these problems..Read full review

A really great rest
I have installed two of these on different bows, and they are a pleasure to use. They are easy to install (printed instructions and a DVD are included - it's hard to go wrong). They have worked flawlessly since installed; my guess is somewhere between 500 and 1000 arrows. The arrow rest is easily raised with a flick of the thumb, and when it is the arrow cannot fall out. I don't shoot competitively, but it seems to me that my groupings are better with this rest than with the Whisker Biscuit it replaced. For such a quality product, a price of less than $100 seems extremely reasonable.Read full review

Increased FPS and Distance
This QAD HDX rest replaced the whisker biscuit that came on my bow. I was amazed at the increase in FPS and shot distance. It's very easy to use and has worked out great for me.

great durable arrow rest
best drop away rest i have ever used. own four and have thousands of shots through them without any problems. have tried 4 other brands and they have had problems after a few hundred arrows. also, very quiet with no bounce back. would highly recommend . well worth the price.Read full review

Excellent Rest
I was shooting with a Trophy Ridge Whisker Biscuit prior to switching to the QAD Ultra Rest HDX. There is a night and day difference between the two rests. First, and most importantly is how much quieter the QAD rest is than the whisker biscuit. I had the rest mounted and bow tuned by my local bow shop. I took the bow out this morning and shot good groups. Still working on sighting the bow in but I am, overall, pleased with the rest. The only potential drawback I see at this point is the felt on the bow rest itself does not look to be durable. With use and weather and can see it coming off rather easily which is why I give the rest a 4 star rating rather than a 5 star rating..Read full review

Captured Arrow
This is really a great product that has been a superior upgrade from the Whisker Biscuit I used to have. Be sure to review how this product is designed and how it functions (a persons failure to understand this could result in unintended damage to the product). Once installed, preferably by a competent bow shop, your shooting should show some positive results in smoothness, and fewer adverse effects from things touching the arrow upon making a shot.Read full review

Great product
I currently own 3 bows and have this rest on all of them. I have tried many rests over the years, everything from whisker biscuits to drop always. These are the most reliable, easy to tune trouble free rests that exist. The free pocket knife is not great but good for your keychain.Read full review

QAD Ultra Rest HDX
This is a sweet little rest. I’ve been shooting one on my bow since 2012 and I have yet to ever have a problem with it. Works like it should every shot, rain, shine or snow. Just purchased another for my wife’s new bow.. No complaints here.Read full review

Tightened up my grouping.
It's easily attached. Very quiet operation. Tightened up my grouping by 25%. Loved it so much I bought a second one for my other bow. If I had a dozen bows each one would have a QAD HDX drop away.

Awesome rest
I love the QAD Ultra HDX rest. I have them on 3 of my bows. A great bonus is the knife. Holds a sharp edge and easily fits in your pocket without bulk. May sound crazy but I chose this seller because it included the knife!Read full review
