I had way to many issues with fletchings being deformed and ripped off with my WB. I prefer the drop aways!
I also had this problem with my brand new out of the box arrows/fletchings. When I put my quick spins on with some real glue that problem went away.

Not a fan at all of the WB...I get the concept but not a fan. We just took one off a Switchback, tkycaller here on the forums and his groups immediately improved, he was tired of fletch wear as well.

I want all of you to be honest with me and tell me what kind of groups are you getting using the WB....

Seems like there's a debate about the WB every week or two here. Invarably some hunters will say it's the greatest hunting rest they have ever used and others will say thatthey were sick of it ripping apart thier fletchings and got much better groups after they switched to a drop away.

It would appear that if you shoot a lot, shoot competitively, etc then you should opt for a drop away. If you shoot less frquently and are only concerned with hitting a paper plate at hunting ranges then the WB would be a fine rest.

I changed to a Cobra Diamondback drop-away and I will never go back. I had alot of improvements. I will not be shooting my bow hanging up-side down from a tree so I do not need all of that containment.

Ill never go back to another rest. Sure you have to get feathers replaced once in a while, but hey sure cant beat the rest.

I just got a secondApex 7 and am setting it up as an indoor spots specific bow. I am waiting on a new string/cable from gibblet for it, as well as a differentcam.Once I have these I will get the bow set up and tuned. I will shoot 3 indoor300 vegas games with my TT spring steel rest. I will then install the WB, and retune to the same tear through paper andthen another 3 games with a whisker biscuit and we can compare the average scores. I am curious too and interested to see what can be done with a whisker biscuit. I am in no way affiliated w/ them or any other rest company and have nothing to gain from this other than some insight so this should be a good unbiased test for everyone to see and should hopefully squash this debate. If someone wants me to add in another rest for 3 more games let me know, if I have one in the shop I will gladly do this. I think we have a TT shakey hunter in there somewhere if someone wants to see results of this.

I've been shooting a WB for three years now and the groups are as tight or tighterthan I've had with any other rest (1 1/2 to 2" at 30 yards and more like 3-4" at 50 yards. Had some issues with wear on feathers early on but since I switched to Blazers it's been a non issue
