I refused to even try a WB. I was talked into shooting my friends bow with a WB on it and bought one the same day. I like the fact the arrow will not fall out. I used the little arrow holder that was plastic and came off when you drew your bow back (for many years) and it always gave me a hard time. I was sure the WB bristles would damage my fletch and would slow down my arrow. I actualy gained speed witht the WB and have not lost a fletch yet. My groups are the same as they have always been. I am sure it is a personal preference thing. I can't wait for season to open It comes in On SEPT 26 here. I am counting down the days.
