Default Whisker Biscuit

Hey

Are the 05 WB Deluxe able to be shot using fingers? or do you need a release aid to successfully use this rest?

Cheers

What do you do? 3-d, hunting, or what? For hunting, I dont think there is a better rest out there.

99% of the time hunting and the other 1% target, but thats just to tune my bow.

There's something about hunting and i just cant get anough of it, especially when theres plenty of game around. While i dont mind target, it just gets a bit boring for me.

Now all ive got to do is purchase the rest!

Oh and by the way....Make sure you get the B2 Deluxe. Its more expensive, but to me, its worth the money. It has alot more adjustments.

The Whisker Biscuit is a very good rest. i've been shooting with one for the past few months at targets in the yard and at a few indoor Dart systems, i'm definitely going to use one this season to hunt with.

questions_14,

While there are those out there that like the WB for hunting, there are several out there that will never use one again.

I suggest listening to someone draw their arrow across one, they are sometimes loud and I've seen videos of deer spooking when they hear the arrow draw from 35 yards away.

Just my 2 cents,
Kev

That is the one and only reason I sold mine and replaced it with an APA Twister Safari. I now have no noise at all and a full containment dropaway. I loved the Bisquit, just could not live with the noise on drawback. Tons of hunters use them with great success, but I could not get past that "what if" feeling.
