I still think the bottom bristles are going to wear out from friction and change your tune. I would like to know how many shots before this happens. Also, if you change the bottom bristles how do you know it's the same heighth?

I use a WB and love it.. I am also intruiged by the Hostage..

Anybody currently with a Hostage? The question I have, is it possiblefor the shaft of the arrow to fall off the bristles? I have on a few occations with a bad draw, push the shaft of my arrow into the WB bristles, but it managed to self correct before full draw..

Cheers.

Sweet looking rest. My son has the original on his Rapture. He hasn't had any problems with dropping the arrow. He has shot about 500 shots so far an no indication of any wear on the bristles.

It doesn't look like you could use arrows with 4 fletches.

Thanks, Matt. You continue to be "the man." That is a good addition to the original rest. Don't know if I will get one for my Pro 38, since I just got a tube of FOB's today.
