I might consider switching from the whisker biscuit because a ground blind I am building will set me up for very close range shots and I can't afford to make any sound when drawing the bow. What's a good rest that won't break the bank? I remember TnDeerGuy had a nice drop away but it's outside my budget. Something that shoots accurately and gets the job done. Thanks

The Vapor Trail Limbdriver Pro V, Ripcord, and QAD HDX are my top 3 choices in that order. If they are out of your price range I would look at the NAP Apache Rest. its a great rest for the $$$.

I think I have seen the NAP rest. Might look into that one. And will check out the other suggestions as well. NAP caught my eye because I use thunderheads and they are well made and affordable.

I have a Ripcord now but the lower end QAD would also work. I have used it before the Ripcord and always felt it did a great job.

Trophy Taker SmackDown Pro or a Vapor Trail Limbdriver Pro V. The drop aways that work off the limb are as easy to setup, you don't have to serve in your rest cord to the cable, and you don't have any timing issues.

QAD makes one around $50 that I had on one of my old bows and it worked just fine.

NAP Apache or Trophy Ridge Revolution. I have both and prefer the revolution. Both are great inexpensive rest!
