Default whisker bisquit brakes the veins of arrows?

ive only been shooting for a year and all of a sudden the last week my veins on my arrows have began to brake, there made of some rubber material, i think its because of going through the bisquit alot it gets ripped slightly and gets worse and worse.
Is this a possiblity? or do i just have crappy arrows i need to change?

That is the one downside to the biscuit. They are rather hard on vanes. Blazers are great w/ the buscuit, they are just much more rigid and durable. Or, you could give a new rest a try. If you like the buscuit, NAP makes a 360 capture. Based on the same principle, but it's not a totally encompassing buscuit. Your vanes pass through air, not fibers.

I've heard that Blazer vanes hold up well to the mighty bisquit.

Your WB is doing what? Was there any noise involved?

I had the WB on my bow and it eat fletchings bad . I also tried blazers thy lasted a little longer but still took a beating . A lot of people on hear say that if it is set up right it won't do hurt the fletching but I could not get mine right... I loved the rest for not having to keep an eye on the arrow while drawing but I could not get it to shoot good groups. My brother-in-law has 1 on his bow and it shoots grate. After 2 years of bad groups and bad fletchings I changed to the shaky hunter fall away rest . Groups got better and fletchings are not a problem . I hope the WB works on your set up , it's a good rest if you get to work.. I just could not get it right for me...

Send your WB to Chuck Norris and he'll soften it up for you.
