If your bow is tuned,and your arrows are comming off the string the way they are supposed to,,then the WB is a very good hunting rest.
I shoot helical feathers through mine and they are holding up just fine.
I'll give up 3 fps. any day for a hunting rest thats going to keep my arrow where it should be,,,,,,too many things can,and DO go wrong at "crunch time",,my arrow moveing when it should'nt,is'nt going to be one of them.
