Newbie here.... Please explain the pros/cons of various rests
I have a WB on my new bow that I just bought. The reason I liked is because being a newbie I wanted to make everything is idiot proof as possible. Thus, the WB seemed like it holded the arrow in place the best while waitingno matter how I would hold my bow in the treestand.
However, please explain the pros and consof the various type rests. Assume I know nothing for this disscusion.
Thanks.

The WB is a popular hunting rest no doubt, but the constant fletching contact can Not be good for anything.
Do they work? Sure, but for my money I'll shoot a drop away as full containment is of No concern for me.
I prefer the Limb Driver! Easy setup, No timing issues, and No resulting fletch clearance problems.

as far as the whisker biscuit i think its a great rest, nothing can go wrong. With that said , I personaly dont use the WB because of fletching drag , which causes wear on your fletchings. I havent seen any speed reports as far as slowing the arrow down. Give it a try and you might fall in love with it. I personaly use a drop away, which goes against my principal KISS ( keep it simple stupid ) I think I talked myself into one.

WB's and tubed peeps are similar. They may work, but IMHO there are much better ways to get the job done.

I have used one for several years and I have never had an issue with my setup.
