![]() In general I am not a fan of cable driven fall away rests I prefer limb driven rests like the Hamske Hybrid Hunter or AAE Pro-Drop because of their reliability and ease of installation, use, and maintenance. But there are two things I just can’t seem to get over and those are the price tag and the overall cable driven fall away design. I’ve taken shots at three hogs with it and even in one instance where I was forced to come to full draw, let down, and then come back to full draw, the rest proved quiet enough to not raise attention. Two months and over one thousand arrows later I'm still very impressed with this rest. Having some pre-provided reference marks line up might seem insignificant but it is representative of the extreme level of consideration that went into the design of this rest and how it integrates with the bows intended design. ![]() With my nock tied perfectly in the center of the top and bottom cams all of these reference points line up perfectly with my nock and when it came time to paper tune my up and down was dead on. I simply followed the directions provided with the rest, mounting it so that the milled hash mark on the riser next to the berger button hole lined up with the painted arrow provided on the rest, and set my rest adjustment to zero. In my Vertix review I praised QAD and Mathews for this new mount design and I stand by that. ![]() Fans of the Ultrarest design will no doubt love the new Integrate MX but I had some issues with it. This new mount is complimented by QAD’s long established UltraRest cable driven drop away design which has been an industry standard for some time now. The machined rail section provides a larger surface area and tighter tolerances than the now antiquated Berger Button mount. This design is very similar to the 1913 style Picatinny rails you see on virtually every modern rifle and handgun on the market today. I briefly covered some of the advantages provided by the Integrate Rail in my Vertix review but to quickly sum up unlike traditional arrow rests which rely on a single screw tapped into the Berger Button hole, Mathews new “Integrate Rail” section allows for a more secure, ergonomic, easy to install and weight saving design which clamps directly to a machined section on the back of the riser. When the 2019 Mathews flagship line launched last November, Mathews and Quality Archery Designs (QAD) announced the release of the Ultrarest Integrate MX rest which is the first arrow rest designed to pair with the machined Integrate Rail featured on the 2019 Mathews Vertix, Traverse, and TX-5. ![]()
