Yeah I'm a newbe...........I have been looking around and I would like to pick up a rest that will also hold your arrow well I'm up in the tree....I have heard both good and bad things about the Whisker Bisqiut....but I am sick of having my arrow fall off my rest......

To me, the negatives of the whisker biscuit do not out weigh the positives.
I think you would be happy w/it. No more falling arrows!!!:D

Yeah definitely the whisker biscuit. I have a savage arrow rest and is fine for now but here before too long I need to get a new string and I think im goin to pick up the whisker biscuit as well. Ive shot out of it and its very nice. Its supposed to lower your fps my 2 or 3 but thats not much at all. Definately a good rest!!!!

The only other problem I have is I'm a lefty and it's hard to find anything.....

Well I dont know about that as much. But if you can find that rest in lefty I would buy it. Your best be would be to order it online though. But if you find it at an archery dealer that would be great! Here within a couple weeks, Im going to be gettin new stuff including that rest!! I shot a Matthews Outback with that rest on it and it felt just perfect. No arrow falling out and you dont have to worry bout your feathers being ripped off by the rest. Just nock the arrow, pull, and fire. So far I havent heard any negatives on it, but let me know what you have heard about it so I can get an outlook on what to expect.

from what i understand is that the whisker bisquit arrow rest is inter changeable.... just mount it , its a good product and my wife loves it, no more worrying about arrow popping off when readying for the shot..

Ditto on the Biscuit and I am aware that some of the models are interchangeable though I am not sure if all of them are. The original is.

It is ok if it shoots a bullet when you paper test. If it doesn't though, you may be in trouble because there is very little adjustment in it.

besides the biscuit, there are a few other gadgets I've seen that look like they'll work...

NAP makes a Fast Flip Arrow Rest, which is a flipper that holds the arrow down onto a prong style rest and flips up out of the way when you draw back.

Bodoodle makes several rests that have 3 prongs and arranged in such a way that they surround the arrow shaft.
Golden key has one of these called the Shoot Out 3-point, but instead of prongs it uses 3 plungers.

Golden Key also makes a Funnel Rest that looks similar to a biscuit.


I haven't used any of these, including the biscuit. I was just paging through my catalog from Bass Pro Shops and saw a few things for you. Good luck.

I prefer the prong style rest by Golden Key. NAP also makes a great prong rest. Bodoodle as well. Goodluck. It's really personal choice.

I have the drop tine model. I just looked at it and I don't see any reason it wouldn't work on a lefthand bow. I really like mine.

I do believe that the QS Deluxe is interchangable for either right or left hand from looking at mine- just got a heck of a deal one one the other day $26.00 !

Vital Bow Gear makes an awesome drop-away rest that holds the arrow in place untill you draw. I love mine.

You can see it at http://www.vitalbowgear.com/arrowrests.cfm
