I have a PSE DNA Sp on the way and have a couple of questions.
1. It has a qad drop away rest on it and I've always shot biscuit rest. Which way does the odd fletching need to face?
2. How do you reset a drop away rest?
Thanks in advance

I know people that shoot odd fletching up and others down. My son has his down. The rest drops so, shouldn't matter. The rest is attached to string, you draw it comes up. I personally would raise it manually and not risk the arrow falling to the side like I saw happen twice to a guy at the last 3d shoot. Reset by pullin string and quickly releasing.

With the QAD you manually cock the rest. This allows you to hang your bow or whatever giving the full capture feature like the biscuit. To decock it you either pull on the cocking knob, release cord or pull back on the laucher arm and release it quickly. The neat thing about the QAD is if you draw and need to let down, the rest will stay cocked. This definitely comes handy when one of them old nannerheads is playing peekaboo with you when you're trying to get a shot.
As for the cock vane, if set up correctly it shouldn't matter which way it is turned. I always shoot with mine up.

Like what Shaw said... I have the same bow with the QAD with no problems thanks to Shaw... Make sure you have the correct launcher and it'll be smooth sailing either way you shoot it...
