I think that was more prevalent with the older style (all black) biscuits.
Maybe, but if you check the replies in the thread recommended in the beginning.... they all talk about trimming, changing arrows, changing fletching type or length etc. Buying a WB is not simply changing a rest for most. At the very least it's more restrictive to what your options are for change.
It's possible but I still think most people's problems are with the wrong size opening for the arrows they are shooting.When I first switched from the all black biscuit to the newer style ones, everything was fine except slight wave in my fletchings....No biggie I put on quality vanes and the problem was solved.

Well, whenI got my latest bow I purchased another W/B for it but the only size thay had was the large. I had been using the medium because I thought thatwas what I needed. But the pro shop only had the large opening biscuit so I putit on to see how it would shoot. I also purchased a dozen new arrows (Beman ICS 340camo hunters)and they were fletched with the cheap vanes the shop had in stock. Well right off the bat I could tell there was a difference. What little drawnoise I had with the other bow was now even less. After getting it dialled in and shooting perfect, I put a few hundred shots through it and there was no vane damage at all. Since then I have shot thousands of shots and still no vane damage. Again this is with cheap 4in vanes.

If you read the package I think it's a little confusing as towhat sizeto use. I THOUGHT I was buying the correct size in the pastbut I wasn't. I think most who have W/B problems are doing the same thing.

It's either that, or I bought Jack's magical Whisker Biscuit.
