Arrow rests are like other archery accessories: there are plenty of new products every year and there is more than a little confusion about how they work, if they work and for whom they work. This article is intended to compare the basic function of two hot trends in arrow rest design with products that have proven themselves in the field for nearly 30 years.
Drop Away Arrow Rests
Drop-away arrow rests aren’t new. In fact, this is at least their second time around the block with an earlier trip courtesy of Keith Barner in the 1980’s. With the proliferation in designs hitting the market right now (at last count there were 15 companies making drop-away arrow rests), it would seem that this category has finally come of age.
