Default Can you shoot quick spin vanes through a biscuit

I was told that you can't shoot quick spins through a biscuit. Is this true? What is the best vanes to shoot through a biscuit?

You can, but they're going to catch a lot, and slow moreso than "regular" vanes. Really, probalby not recommended, from what I would think, but I'm no expert by any means. I'd really think that if you're shooting a biscuit, Blazers might be the best thing you can shoot. Personally, I don't like the biscuits, as they seem to tear fletching up a bit. And I don't like replacing fletching every couple weeks.

They fly through the biscuit fine, but be prepared to replace them quite frequently. The biscuit tears themup. As was mentioned, Blazers are about the best thing you can shoot through a biscuit.

If you want that style rest that won't cause the same damage, check out the NAP 360 Capture.

i shoot a biscuit with quickspins had no trouble with tearing it will slow it down some but if your not obsessed with speed you wont notice. im shooting a consistent 262fps with my setup,60#s with 29in. draw. as for the blazers they will hit the biscuit some i know from experience. this is due to the height difference of blazers and quickspins i think. good luck on your decision hope this helps out.

When you were getting contact w/ blazers, were you shooting cock vane up or down?

"Can you shoot quick spin vanes throught a whisker biscuit?"

You can steer a car with your feet if you want to, but that doesn't make it a good idea!

Blazers for biscuits, quick spins for dropaways.
