I have been debating this very same question. I havedecided on the whisker biscuit for one main reason... It is way more practical for hunting. Weather it be in stand or moving slowly on the ground.. Once that arrows is loaded my worry disappears, I just HUNT

well the whisker biscuit is the absolute best hunting rest in my opinion.If you are strictly hunting you cant go wrong with the wb.But if you shoot comp go with a drop away, there really isnt that much difference in accuracy but people defend their products so this could get ugly

What about shooting Helical through the whisker biscuit? Does it affect the arrow at all?

I would have to say drop away, but on that note i have personally not shot the whisker biscuit. It seems thatguys either love them or hate them, for me as stated i have never shot one but think about it when you shoot through a biscuit any hand torque goes straight to the arrow because the arrow is still traveling trough the whisker biscuit. A drop away there is no arrow contact as soon as you shoot. Just my two cents... Walt

no problems at all with the arrows, I ould never go in the woods hunting with another rest,never having to wonder your arrow falling of your rest, this is just my opinion

I switched from a drop away to a WB and I love it, but I'm intrigued by the Quik Tune 360. Has anyone ever tried one? Seems like an improvement over the biscuit concept, but I'm not certain that it would hold the arrow as well.

Had WB, switched to a QAD ultra rest.. still have total containment, yet more FPS and better accuracy. I'll always shoot a drop away from now on.

Trophy Ridge Drop Zone. Get a drop away. I used to have a WB and I switched, and I love my drop away
