This is an un-truth.The whisker biscuit can be paper-tuned, walk-back tuned, bare-shaft tuned and any other tuning you'd like to do. I just had new strings put on my bowand with awhisker biscuit deluxe I'm shooting perfect bullet holes at 6 feet from paper. This was probably started by the anti-whisker biscuit radicals out there .

Thank you very much, I've been trying to find that out for a long time. Most of the hunters that I know use drop aways, but I like my biscuit and have had great success with it.

It took me only 8 shots to get perfect bullet holes with my WB delux after installing it. People who don't own bisquits like to bash them. Having said that paper tuning should not be the only step you realize, walk back tune is more important.

I've just ordered a whisker biscuit Sunday. From what I've read the whisker isn't that hard to tune. Once you center the rest up and down are supposed to be the only real adjustments needed. From what I've read a arrow with a proper spine weight is very easy to tune with this rest. I've seen a dealer spend 30 min trying to paper tune one and complaining about how hard it is to tune the whole time. However, if you go to their site it explains the up and down tuning issue pretty clearly and that seemed to be the problem he was having.

As TerryM stated above, it's a really good idea to walk-back tune after you've paper-tuned to insure you've got true "center-shot" established .
