In my opinion Drop ways are better, I had a W.B.when they first came out, and threw it way, but everyone has different opinions.

I have a WB... I like it... I guess for me it has to do with simplicity!!! I'm a Whitetail deer hunter period... I'm not a target shooter... 99.9% of the deer I shot are within 20 yards...

I'm not all caught up in the whole latest and greastest BS...

I keep a bow for at least 10 years or longer... My last rest was a TM hunter if that tells you anything lol...

As far as I'm concerned... You cant go wrong with the WB

I'd get the WB...

I have a WB like others have said I am a hunter 99.9% of the time and I like the way my WB performs. Drop aways are nice also it is really a matter of what you want out of your rest.

id say it also depends on how much you want to spend with dropaways being easily over 100 and WB being around 40ish least thats how much it was when i bought mine

I've had both. I prefer my QAD Ultra-Rest over the whisker biscuit.

If you don't mind your fletching coming in contact with the whiskers of a whisker biscuit, that may be the rest for you. I like my QAD drop away.
