the exchange rate on U.S. / Aussie currency is pretty close to 1:1 - right?

I just can't imagine a whisker biscuit costing $120.

Germ whats the difference between the regular hostage and the Pro?
Pro - CNC Machined 6061 Aluminum
Pro - Narrow Brushes you can adjust

The hostage is plastic and you cannot adjust the brushes

I got mine for $45 or $55, but I think it was a sweetheart deal.

For whoever asked - there is simply no comparison between the Hostage and the Hostage Pro. The original Hostage looks like something from a gumball machine. The Pro is much nicer. People would look at the original Hostage rest and laugh at it. The Hostage Pro looks like something that you actually bought at a genuine, bona-fide bow store.

You're not tricking anybody, Germ. It's a whisker biscuit. [:-] Don't lie - you just wanna be like me. It's okay. Lots of people do. I'm frickin' awesome. It's no secret.

So wait, let's back up. You said you have to let your NEW BOW sit, right? Does that mean you got the GTO already?

When you have to stop and explain why something that looks and behaves like a whisker biscuitis not "technically" a whisker biscuit - it's a whisker biscuit.

If it walks like a duck and talks like a duck... You know what they say...

On another note: $114.99 for the fuse WB! Holy Schnikeythat's highway robbery. No wonder I loathe Hoyt/Easton and Bowtech/Diamond/Octane. Hell, I thought I gotripped offpaying $50. LMAO

What's the over/under on how long before Mathews comes out with their $115.00 biscuit?

Thx BS

Any chance of shipping a LH model to me for field testing purposes
