I absolutely love mine. I trimmed it a teeny tiney bit right where each vane goes through the whiskers and have had absolutely no problems with my vanes. It shoots great, groups very well, it is very quiet to draw with carbon arrows, and best of all... you will never never never worry about the arrow falling off the rest.
Very easy to set up, and rock solid once you get it there.
As for those who have never tried it and bash it...Don't listen to them, they don't know what they are missing. I've had two prong and plungerstyle rests. They don't even come close to being in the same league as this simple little rest.

What "Handles" failed to specify, is that the "WB" is in the little league in comparison

Goes against the grain here. We've spent a whole life time trying to get rid of fletching contact for the most precise, clean, straight shooting arrow we can get. Then along comes a whisker bisquit and squeezes it through that push broom(which of course imparts drag, fletching contact etc) It rips off fletchings and must be totally redesigned by the shooter by trimming to get any where near a clean release(which it can never achieve). You won't see any on the shooting lines at the pro events. That should tell you something. If you're looking for a rest that holds the arrow in place... buy a Muzzy Zero Effect. It's the best of both worlds. Clean contact free release and you never have to worry about where the arrow is. SURE it cost a little more, but you're not refletching arrows once a week either.

Wanna bet? There was just a thread here recently about a pro shooter who won with a WB.

I'm guessing davidmil either has never owned a WB or does not do a very good job fletching his arrows. I"ve gone 4 years with no fletching problems, same two dozen arrows.
I might have missed it somewhere along the lines, but I have yet to see a WB owner come on and say that this is a bad rest. I've had other rests therefore I can speak first hand, especially for hunting, this one is far superior to anything else that I have tried.
Notice that I didn't put down a zero effect, or trap door? I haven't owned them. They might be great rests, but the WB is for sure.
Also just because something goes against everything you were taught doesn't mean that it is wrong.

The wisker biscuits suck even if the inventor is from my home town. I never could get it to be dead balls on target. I now have the 3d rover on my bow it it is dead balls on target.
