How much of your view does the rest take up? I shoot with one eye closed.

I' m sure there is a slight depletion of view, however I haven' t noticed any difference from other rests.

The view is a non-issue unless maybe you are shooting instictive by looking down the arrow. With a standard peep/pin sight combo I' ve never even seen the dang thing.

Yes and no. The local shop has sold quite a few of those Whisker Biscuits and have not had one returned because of a lack of satisfaction. However, several customers have come back to complain about the effect it has on their fletching initially. After the rest is " worn in" and a few of the bristles are trimmed the effect that it has on fletchings is negligible. I like the rest' s design and would recommend it.

AK Doug is right. If you are using a typical pin sight, you will not see the Biscuit.

Soft vanes like AAE Plastifletch will get wrinkled and distorted when shot through the rest. AAE Speedflyte vanes, Bohning, Duravanes, etc. are no problem at all. They must be glued down well, and have a drop of glue at the front and back of the vane, but that should be the case anyway.
