The Hostage arrow rest from Bowtech? i currently use a Whisker Biscuit and love it, but this has the same principal but without having fletching contact on the shot. i have shot with one of these rests and the shot seemed a bit more quiet. they also say you can pick up a few more FPS..i personally am not worried about that but i think i may try this rest this year just to see how i like it. here is a link for those that havent seen it..

I'm not using that specific rest , but I'm currently trying out a NAP 360 capture rest that is very similar in design . The rests are easy to tune and arrow flight is good ,but the arrow will still fall off the rest if you lay the bow on your lap while sitting in your stand .
