I don't mind a person not liking the WB or switching to another rest and preferring it.
Nor do I. I do not work for or own any stock in the company.
The debate seems to get heated, not when someone explains why it didn't work for them, or why they don't like it, but when someone decides to belittle those who use it or exagerate the problems one may encounter.
Exactly like the following gems from Arthur.
The "LOL" factor really comes into play, every time I hear that reasoning for a rest. If someone isso big a klutz thathe can't keep the arrow onhis rest..... I mean really! Uncoordinated people should not be allowed to play with sharp sticks, and here we are making special arrow rests for them!?
Didn't Arthur chastise me for making these debates about personal attacks. Hmmm, looks like he implied WB's are for Klutzs on page 2.
They had the things shoved off on them like the shops were getting kickbacks from the company! Maybe they were, I don't know.
Meaningless overstated hyperbole. Poor bowhunters are being beaten with sticks and made to buy WB rests against their will by mean Pro shops bribed by Carolina Archery. This is the kind of meaningless crappola that gets people pissed.
Somewhat slower arrow speeds,
2 fps tops. But I guess a master like yourself can notice a severe performance difference due to the loss of that 2 fps.
Not if properly set up.
has to be modified before you can even get it to work right
Outright lie!
As far as I'm concerned, full containment rests are nothing more than bandaids for underlying problems. IMO, lack of practice, poor preparation and/or clumsiness are problems to be cured instead of disguised.
Hmmm, more personal attacks on WB users. Dang Arthur I thought you were morally above that. And yet he wonders why people get pissed at him.
Side note... I was wondering how long it would take to get you WB boys fired up. Had to do a lot of baiting to get it done. [8D]
Proof from his own mouth that he's basically just a s##t disturber.
We haven't even discussed how easy it is to bend the arm that holds the bisquit on a wb. I've seen several that were bent.
First name one rest on earth that can't under some circumstance be bent? Then do a search at this website and see how many threads have been dedicated to the serious bending problem of WB rests. Cause I've never seen such a threadat all. Never bentone myself or had someone I know bend a WB yet either. These are the kind of
Myth creating comments that also anger people.
