Default RE: Everything you wanted to know about the Wisker Bisquit rest and more

I really don't see what all the fuss is about.........bottom line is the WB is a great hunting rest, there is no way to dispute that. Too many people shoot them and are thrilled with the way it works to logically think any other way.

Just because it is a great hunting rest doesn't mean everyone will like it. Mechanical broadheads are great heads but no matter how great they are you will always find people to say they don't work or they are garbage. This may be due to stubborness, closed minded, or just plain personal preferences.

Maybe the WB isn't for everyone and that is fine but when I see people saying things like it slows your arrows, tears up vanes, and throws flight out of whack all it tells me is they have never used one for a long period of time. The speed loss is so minimal it's not even worth mentioning. My Patriot shoots 278 fps at 27" draw 65lb with a WB on it........your string silencers slow your bow more then a WB will. I have shot tons of arrows through mine and the vanes are fine and the arrows fly straight and true. I can group arrows past 30 yards with 2-3-4 blade broadheads of all different brands.........and it's quiet as a mouse fart.

What else is there?? Oh yea......there is no way or no position I can put my bow in and make the arrow fall off the rest. No big deal but a nice bonus.

My WB was put on and it shot great within minutes........needed a little fine tuning and it was all set.

It's a great rest and I recommend that if you are looking for a new hunting rest that you try one if you can...........mine cost $50. With the prices of rests out there today the price of a WB is an absolute steal IMO.

I have shot prong, drop away and now WB..........while the other style rests are adequate.......all things considered I will be using a WB in the woods.
