Well I am in the minority that did not care for the Whisker Biscuit. As mentioned above, the simple design and ability to hold the arrow are great benefits for bowhunting and I was excited to try it out. I bought one and before installing it I shot 5 ends at a target face with field points and kept score of my arrows and marked the size of the groups. I then installed the WB, checked the flight through a paper test, shot a few arrows to adjust the sights, and shot 5 more ends at 20 yards. My groups were definately worse and my score was several points lower. I was a little bit concerned that maybe fatigue had caused my shooting form to slip a little so I the next day I repeated the test but this time I shot the first 5 ends with the WB. I then switched the rest back to my normal rest and shot 5 ends and the score/groups were again worse with the WB. I repeated this a couple more times over the next few days and every time I shot slightly worse with the WB.

The WB does not allow the proper "archers paradox" and there is obviously fletching contact each shot. I have my normal rest setup for zero fletching contact and I think that for those that demand the absolute in accuracy the WB may not the best choice. At 20 yards I don't shoot at the same spot, but if I did all my arrows are normally touching each other. With the WB my groups were probably 3" in diameter, not terrible but I am not willing to compromise ANY accuracy.

Now having described my situation above, I do think the WB may be one of the best choices for the average hunter. I shot target archery for years and I am probably more critical of performance. And I suppose maybe the slight loss in accuracy is worth it to obtain the other benefits of the rest?
