I dont know about the 4 prong bodoodle, but I have been using a 2 prong bodoodle and love it. I have heard some mixed things about the whisker biscuit. Honestly, I cant see how those bristles dont interfere with arrow flight.

If you get the whisker biscuit you can expect to loose at least 5 fps. I would get a two prog Bodoodle. Or a Quicktune !

Yes, they are. I use teflon tape on mine. With Gold Tips, it doesnt last long, but it works very well. I just put fresh strips on before season, and I'm good to go.

I've used the Bodoodle rests for years and won't be using the whisker biscuit. I don't have any noise problem, just put finger nail hardener on the prongs if it does get noisy. Haven't tried the new Zapper, but looks like a good rest.

Put a thin coast of Clear fingernail polish on them that will quiet the bowdoodle down.

With the fingernail polish, how does it hold up with Gold Tips? Everyone knows how hard they are on stuff. The teflon tape will last me about 100 shots or so.

For my personal use I love the whisker biscuit. Its quiet and impossible to knock your arrow off. The few feet per second you loose is a small price to pay for not knocking that arrow of the rest and hearing that big thump when that big buck looks you in they eye. I've tried that zapper and couldn't get it quiet enough for myself. The fingernail polish helped but still had some scraping noise during draw.
