Default Paper Tuning a WB

Is it possible to paper tune a whisker buscuit? I was told it wasn't.

I'd say it's real easy to paper tune a WB, only problem is the results might not reflect the true tune of the bow& arrow since the bristles grab the fletching and center them (somewhat) on their way out creating a bullet.

This rest will make getting bullets easy, which is a good place to start before you fine tune your set-up to shoot the heads you are going to hunt with.

YES! treat it just like any other rest, if the bow is tuned properly then the bristles have no effect on the fletching IMO

It took 6 shots for mine to give perfect bullets. Once again people who don't use them commenting negatively about them. Simplest rest in the world to tune and shoot.

Ditto on the simplicity of the almighty biscuit!!! Pleople try and complicate things so much.Paper tuning is for the ones who buy 200 dollar fall-away rest.

I would say the "expert" who told the original poster that it isn't possible to paper tune a WB would fall into the the WB bashing.

gotcha, I was hoping my comments hadn't been mis-understood.
