Drop away vs Whisker Biscuit?
Has anyone switched from a drop away to a biscuit rest? I am only talking about hunting here and not target shooting. I am just wondering if there would be a big flight difference. As much as I like some of the drop aways the Biscuit rests just look like they would be great for hunting.

RE: Drop away vs Whisker Biscuit?
I've used the MZE and it does work well, but I have a 04 Bowtech MM and the cable slide doesn't move back far enoungh with the vertical limbs. I have heard that I could cross the cable at the top to get more movement. I was thinking the biscuit style because you can move the bow in any direction without the arrow even moving. I have no experience with the Twister. It looks to me that it would be hard to get the vanes to travel through it without hitting the rest.

IMO, the whisker biscuit is the best hunting rest, hands down. It really comes down to what feachers in a rest are more important to you and what it's being used for. The WB design is as simple as they come so less can go wrong. If I shot competition, I'd probably shoot a dropaway and then put my WB on for hunting. Maybe it's because I'm a cluts, but I like the added security of the WB.
