Whisker Biscuit
 
I have been thinking about getting one of these rest. I shoot left handed. I noticed that they sell a lh and rh version. Looking at the pictures on Bass Pro's website, it looks to me tolike that they should work either way. Can some one that has one or knows more fill me in. I am hoping to get one on EBay cheap. Thanks

They make a rh and a lh you need to get the lh if your a lefty. They will work either way, but they are designed to be laced on a certain way. Good Luck

Thanks, that is what I was needing to know.

Yes you definatley need a left handed version. The bisquit will only fit on the rest housing one way and you don't want your buisquit opening facing your riser.

I used to be anti full containment because i am a drop away guy UNTIL i used the new hostage rest from bowtech. You may want to give that a shot too.

Never liked those WBs had a few friends have the fletches get ripped off plus i shoot fethers.

With that rambling out of the way, your a lefty buy a left rest.....just makes sence!

I got the deluxe in black for $25 shipping and all, brand new. I will only use it for hunting and I don't shoot a ton. I think it will be fine for me. Some one said to shoot nock feather up, is this true? Thanks guys.

Yes you dont want your vane/feather going through the dark bristles at the bottom of the rest.

I am going to tryto fletch my own arrows with blazers to use with this rest. I will be buying a fletching jig and was wondering if I should geta straight clamp or one with helical? I shoot lefty and have left helical on my arrows at this time but didn't know if one worked betterthanthe other with a wb. thanks

It does not really matter with Blazers.

If your current arrows are left helical then get a left helical jig.

What about offset?

I believe that Bohning suggests a 2° offset w/straight clamp. I have mine @ 2° and am shooting great. Right or left...your preference.

Madjac20...Let me get this staight. You are using a straight clamp with 2 degrees of offset. If I get a left helical, do I still use 2 degrees of offset?

I have aslo fletched arrows with a right helical @ 2° offset with good results. Ijust think the straight clamp @ 2° offset works better thru the WB, IMHO.

Yep, you want the knock feather up. When you look at the bisquit, you will see a black portion at the bottom. Make sure that none of the vanes or feathers pass through that part or it will throw off the flight of the arrow. Love mine.
