Isn't that true for drop aways aswell??........only you are now talking about the time the rest falls to when it leaves the string.No support or guidance other then the string at that point and surely the above willshow up just as dramatically.......won't they?......perhaps even moreso depending onhow quickly the rest drops. Some of the footage on theSpot Hogg website shows morethen half the arrow running by with no support...........if gravity can't even act that faston more then half an arrow then how dramatic would the things you mentioned haveto be to act on amere3-4 inches?
I don't think the WB or a drop away willbe the rate limiting factor in that situation........if it's even possible at all.

Big,those last couple inches are really the ones that matter imo,that is when all the things that happened on the shot will show up,ie,torque,dropped arm etc.

I still believe 99% of the problems with accuracy have to with the shooter or the set up.......NOT due to the type of rest.
I've been saying this all along...The Whisker Biscuit rest ismore accuratethan 99% of the shooters who use them. Most will never shoot to the accuracy potential of the rest in their entire life....I know I never will. If all I can end up doing is putting three arrows in the same location as the dude in the video, at THAT range......well I guess I'll just have to live with it.

Whisker Biscuit sweeps Super Tuesday Primariesand will be the next President of the United States.
Many thought the drummed up criminal record would hurt WB's chances....but the smoking gun was a '93 malicious assault arrest that resulted in WB's pleading to a lesser charge of battery. Seems the Biscuit's been kicking ass for years.
The WB actually preceeded the bow......and the bow was invented to compliment the WB. Betcha didn't know that.
Cupid shoots a biscuit, and cherubs have their own signature model.
It really is that good. That's gospel.

Hey cool video.. Good shooting!
What do I care what rest someone shoots? It's like caring what deer they shoot..If it makes ya happy shoot it.
It's called a REST it doesn't do much...You could tape a stone to your riser and shoot accurately off it, if you so desire.

Second question, he was near the target and the recorder was still taping AND recording his voice. How is this possible?

Thats some good shooting.
Im still switching to the Hostage Pro. All rests are accurate, im just tired of vane damage.
