ewolf,
Nobody is asking you to shoot yourself in the head. Whether or not you choose to use a whisker biscuit or don't I could care less. The thread was started by someone who had a problem with fletching and the biscuit. I think we were able to answer his question before C903 published his treatise on all things that he believes are true about archery which as usual diverted the thread into a pissing contest over the biscuit. Use the biscuit and tune your bow and you will have good results, don't tune your bow and you won't have good results. Jim Despart shot the biscuit at Vegas and came in fifth place this year. Three out of the five hunters who have taken the Superslam of NorthAmerican big game with a bow did so using the biscuit. When Pete Sheply gave the 41st President two PSE Mach-11 bows they had whisker biscuit arrowrests on them. These rests have operated flawlessly from Alaska to Afrika and all points inbetween. If you have a problem with shooting a whisker biscuit it is most likely not a problem with the biscuit itself but with your arrow spine or your bowtune or your shooting form. I have been building and rebuilding bows and sights and arrowrests, and tuning bows for over forty years. I like the biscuit and have had no problems tuning the bow with it. If you have a problem setting up your bow just ask for help thats why the forums exist. Good luck hunting!
