Default RE: Trophy Drop Zone Rest VS Carolina Whisper Biscuit

ORIGINAL: Pat Curtis

I don't turn to grab my bow. It's on a hanger directly in front of my left hand...with my release already on the loop. If you have trouble with keeping your arrow on a prong/drop-away rest...then go with the WB.

Unless you have to hang your bow behind you or to your side (as dictated by the tree itself most of the time), it should always be within and easy reach. I like to be able to grab it w/o looking at it.

I hunt from a climber and the only way to hang my bow in front of me is to drag one of those telescoping arm gadgets around with me and they suck to carry IMO. They are heavy and require too much motion to screw them in once I get to where I want to hunt. I want to just settle in as quick as possible and not be swinging my arms around as I screw that thing into the tree above my head. I tried one and it drove me nuts. I guess if you hunt out of a permanent stand and already have it in the tree it would be better.

Arrow containment would be only one of the reasons I recommend the WB.
