RE: whisker biscuit vs. fall away?
I don't think that they changed it very much if at all the past few years, so what I would do is shoot it at your local shop, or bass pro and then buy a used one on ebay. Bass pro is selling it for $650 new, but you could probably get one on ebay for $550 or less. That is the price range of the next level of bow ($500-$650). The Black ice is IMO the best mid range bow on the market. With an 7.5" brace height, it is super forgiving and smooth, but you also get a decently fast IBO of 318 fps, which is 18 fps faster than your lights out's IBO. The brace height on the Lights Out is 8.75 inches, so the transition to the 7.5" brace height of the black ice will not be too difficult. Plus, Mossberghunter93 will be probably die of jealousy.
This is the link to the Diamond Black Ice.
Remember, this is no guarantee that you will like this bow, but If all the mid range bows were on a roulette wheel, I'd put my money on the Black Ice. Check it out.
Thebrace heightis actually, 7.5" not 8.5" on the black ice. My bad.
