ANYONE who practices anywhere near as much as I do will tell you WB's are designed to fail. Plain and simple. They are fine for the guys who pull out their bows a couple weeks before archery season, you know, guys like you gjersy, and don't dedicate themselves to being the absolute best they can be for the good of the animals we hunt. But for people that actually give a rats rear about being able to put an arrow precisely where it's supposed to be, under any conditions, we kinda hold to equipment that isn't designed so ridiculously. They are okay I suspect for beginners even though they teach poor technique but if the only reason you can come up with to use one is to keep the arrow from falling off the rest, you know, the reason the damn thing was designed, then you need to go back and learn proper drawing and holding form. In all my years of archery hunting, I've had exactly ONE arrow come off the rest and it was totally MY fault. Was trying an angle I knew in the back of my mind I wouldn't be able to pull off but such is the brain fart moments at times. And that's with 15 or so years hunting with a TM hunter style prong rest!
Are you serious? you insult my hunting abilities? lol

And nothing you say or do is insulting others though right? Can't handle a little truth thrown at you without finding it "disgusting" then don't poke at someone that's not a bit worried about poking back.

OK boys it has been fun but the small time barbs thrown at each other need to stop. I read through everything and don't feel it all warrants anything other than me issuing a general warning providing it stops here. You both like to post and have made some good contributions to the hunting/ shooting threads. I remember having to deal with a similar issue between you two a while ago. My suggestion...which in my opinion is a good one is to take a break and then continue to post but not at each other. The issue was brought up by the OP and has been generally agreed upon through all the posts that it is a useful rest but probably more marketed towards a casual shooter. I think both of you allowed it to get to where it is right now so if there is a continuance both will be affected. If it ends... no harm no foul. Why don't you both step up to the proud line and shake hands and move on. I know if I were involved I would take that suggestion.

First off a beginner has to learn correct form from the onset so using a WB to keep the arrow on the bow should not be a problem with proper form.
As for a good rest for not too much money is the NAP Apache drop away. They cost about $60 and are rock solid.

That's why we post here. Thanks for the co-operation go to both parties in that tennis match. Being a mod is easy when we don't have to do anything.
