Default RE: whisker biscuit pro's and con's

I'm a firm believer in the whisker biscuit. It has proven itself in the field for me over and over again. It secures your arrow better than any other rest I've tried. I've hunted in all kinds of extremes and it has performs flawlessly for me. This year I had an extreme test that I put it through. Late bowseason gave us an ice storm that I hunted in. Basically, we had non stop freezing rain for several hours. It got so bad, that my arrow and broadhead were completely encased in ice. I wouldn't have dared shoot beyond 10 yards with all the additional weight. There was a good 1/4" of ice on my treestand by the time I got down (that was hairy, let me tell ya).

Periodically, I tested the biscuit to see it was frozen or iced up (everything else was on my bow). However, the biscuit remained flexible with no noticable ice build-up on it anywhere. It's a pleasure to hunt with this rest. The arrow never falls off and you don't have to constantly monitor where it is, when stalking or stillhunting. It's a real comfort in a treestand, to have the bow on your lap with the arrow ready to go. No chance of the arrow making noise while you try to get it on the rest.
