"false tune" statement ridiculous.
While you might find this statement ridiculous, I find it to be very real. If you could spend some time with me in the shop, you'd soon be using that statement yourself. And yes, these "folks were never tuned to begin with."; but, they didn't know that!! And yes, their egos make them want to believe that they're tuning experts. You can have all your arrows hitting in the same group and not be tuned correctly.

I just feel that the scenarios you provided can be related to any type of rest!
As I get older I also feel that some folks are going WAY overboard with the tuning crap.
When I setup a bow it's always for hunting purposes. I use paper tuning as a starting point , then I group tune out to 40 yds max. I then paper tune at the longer distances out to 40 yds. When I setup a bow for other hunters I ask how far they feel confident in shooting. The overwhelming majority stay within their hunting range which is 20 yds max with a few that will shoot out to 30 yds. The tuning process for hunters who keep it closer range is easier in my opinion. All we're looking to accomplish is achieving good arrow flight with broadheads and tight groups. Anything else is a waste of time and a headache in my opinion.
I guess when folks apply the term "easy to tune" to the whisker biscuit I think they must be refering to not having to worry about fletching contact. Other than that I dont find the whisker biscuit to be any easier than any other rest when it comes to tuning.

Arrroman: You're continually trying to insult and ridicule me. You've done this since that time I mistakenly misspelled your handle; and, I apologized to you for that mistake.
You, Sir, are making comments about me and certain situations that prove your ignorance. You, Sir, have no idea about how I conduct my business with my paying customers.
I'll have you know that I teach my customers way more than any of the other shops that I've visited. You can ship your bow to anywhere you want, if you haven't got the experience necessary to do an adequate job. And yes, I'll gladly accept your bow for service, as I would any other paying customer. This is my BUSINESS and my family likes the necessities of life just like any other journeyman. I hire plumbers and electricians even though I can do the work. Why, because they can do it better and faster because they have the latest tools and knowledge.
You and many others like you have too long expected the Internet to give you any information you want for FREE. Sorry, I can't/won't jeapordize my livelihood and the livelihoods of my peers for millions like you.
To all the others who accept what I offer to them by my sharing of knowledge on this and other forums, I apologize for having to lay this out so bluntly. Some just don't get it.
Good shooting to all.
