Like everyone else, we appreciate all you are doing for our country. Here's to a safe and happy return home.

As for the biscuit.... it is the best rest I have ever used as well. It will wear your fletching down over time, but it takes awhile. I have not actually had any fletching tear directly from the WB... I have found that if you shoot arrows that have a camo design on them, they are noisier than a plain black arrow. I personally shoot Beman ICS 400s. When I shoot the Camo Hunters, I can hear the bristles against the shaft. I hunt w/ the regular Hunters which have a gloss black finish and they are quiet as can be.
All in all, it is definately worth the $$.
Hope this helps.
