I have never used a biscut, but my older brother does. He waxes his arrows. Not sure how much it helps, but that is what he does.

As far as rests, any will work. Most, you can put mole skin on then to make them quiet. I have a couple of Muzzy zero effects that are whisper quiet. I have mole skin on the turkey spur and my riser.

I use a whisker biscuit and have never had that problem. I don't know what is going on but that sounds weird. I love my whisker though.

i use the bowtech hostage. It has contact with the arrow in three spots and your fletchings never touch it. better for your fletchings and very quiet.

Get rid of the biscut, i used to shoot one and always had noise on the draw. Shoot a Trophy Ridge fall away now, more accurate and quiet too

I use a biscuit, and I love it. You may need a new one, those bristles get frayed like an old toothbrush and can make some noise, but I can't believe it was enough to spook a deer. Are you sure it wasn't something else. Make sure you have the respective rest as well, aluminum for aluminum and carbon for carbon.

I use the QAD drop away rest. Full containment with the accuracy of a target rest. There is no way I would use a whisker biscuit, I don't even want the bristles touching my fletching.
