Default Containment rest alternatives

I like my WB ,but for somereason my bow has worn a groove in the bottom of the biscuit so bad the arrow will slide below the original hole,andI have to pop it back into place before my shot.. This is the second one I've trashed since Oct.
I believe it is a great product,just not compatible with my bow.
I would appreciate any suggestions/feedback on other containment rests.
Thanks in advance,
Jeff

Check out the APA Ultimate. It is also a total containment rest. It is also available in a drop away called the Twister.

The only other model I have really had the time to tinker with is the GKF Whisper Disc. I wasn't particularly impressed with it in comparison to the biscuit. That APA sure looks promising though.

I've been very happy with the QAD Ultrarest. Full containment, easy to set up, plenty of centershot adjustment, arrow does not fall off on a let down, very quiet, etc.

I"ve used the WB for the last three years and I'm going to try the APA Ultimate Safari this year. The WB is a good rest, but I think I can get more acuracy form this rest. We'll see. I did try a DropZone last year and didn't like it for hunting, so I put my WB back on.
