Whisker Buscuit vs. Fall away rest
Is the Whisker Biscuit a problem as far as reduced arrow speed and spin to the point were one should definitely go with a fall away rest instead?
I shoot a PSE Nova thats about 4 years old the bow is still in mint condition I arrowed my first dow with it this year and am stiving to prevent my arrows from falling off during the draw and improved accuracy.

My fall away rest (as do MOST, nowadays) is a full containment rest. You no longer have to worry about an arrow falling off the rest during the draw with today's fall-aways.

I've never owned a WB, but several friends had them. Their fletching was always a problem.
I love my NAP QT2000 dropaway. I don't have a problem with an arrow falling off the rest during drawing the bow, so containment isn't an issue.

I've used the WB for 2 years now and I like the way it keeps the arrow in place, but I've noticed my bow is not as forgiving and there is a slight (very slight) decrease in arrow speed.
I like the new look of the drop away with the containment, but afraid it may be an extra moving part that could mess up in the field.

Never had a whisker biscuit, but I got a new bow this year and only looked at full containment fall aways. Fell in love with the QAD Ultra Rest Pro LD. Bought it, and have not regretted it for a second.
