RE: Any Whisker Biscuit users?
I' ve been using one for a couple years on my hunting bow. I shoot gold tips and do not find it noisy. It has proven to be very durable and easily tuned. My groups are as good with this rest as with any rest I' ve ever owned (been bowhunting for 33 years). It does a better job of holding your arrow than any other rest I' ve I' m aware of, and when you think about it, holding your arrow, is what every hunting rest is doing 99.999% of the time.

Straightarrow I' ll second your oppinion , a great rest . When they first came out , from the looks of the thing I thought to myself , no way this thing can work well , fly' s in the face of what we' ve been taught , strive for zero fletching contact , but it works great and with my feathers does not seem to slow down my arrows at all . Its quiet allso ,I shoot carbon express terminators and lightly sanded the bottom were they contact the wiskers .

I have used the WB coming on 4 years. I did trim mine before installing, but to date it still shows minimal wear and I have no noise when using CE 300' s. I think for my needs it works fine. I have tried the APA, as it designed/produced by my proshop but it was a nightmare. It was much noisier( even with the felt on the wire), could not acheive bullet holes or proper flight & it doesn' t hold the arrow as well, if you bump the riser it can cause the arrow to move and create a tink.

I too hunt with this rest, works great. It isn' t like you can' t make a mistake with it though as I found out the first time I shot my hunting setup on a 3D. Once I drew with the arrow between the bristles and shot into the base of a strutting Tom at 20 something yards[]. I fired a shot like that later at a practice butt and was a foot and a half or more low. Just a heads up! I learned the " easy" way.
