RE: Whiskery biscuit
12-4-8(ruffly) thats the clock and how yourvanes should be going thru,the tearing of the vanes comes when they come in contact with the bottom of the WB support,its also the reason you get a wavie vane,because of contact.I like some of you have been useing the WB from just about day one and have learned how to set it up the correct way.The 4-7 clock postition are stiffer and will also cause some vane warp if hitting to much..Iam still old school and put the little extra drop of glue on the front of the vanes but dont baleave its nessasary.As far as fps loss I think they are still figuring around 1 or two fps not enough to make any differance.
I also beleave alot of people are not getting the right size biscuit for arrowthus causing problems.I also bet that if you look at the vane that shows warp or pulling offthey will show the signs of contact(off color or signs of rubbing)...

RE: Whiskery biscuit
Thank you SGF.
Iam getting tired of the bashing,all rests have thier good and bad and Ive read alot on dif forums and what it comes down too is if you know what your doing the WB is a good all around rest weather it's 110 deg out or -30.Also the WB is perty indestructable(spl)as in no moving parts so the mud,sand,snow,ice,rain have no real effect.Also I do not know of anyother rest you can shoot upside down and still have agood arrow flight,yes Ive hung upside down on my childrens swing set and have tried it, just because I was told you could shoot it upside down and your sight changes due to the fact the arrow is resting on the top,not a perty sight tho(me hanging on the swingset)....Sorry have'nt tried the New Hostage yet....But you never know...
If it aint broke dont fix it.....

That cracks me up that you tried shooting it upside down. I would have loved to seen that. Maybe a future video??
