Default Hunting Arrows with Whisker Biscuit

I'm going to give the WB a try this year. I have purchased the original medium WB and was curious to see what type of arrow other bowhunters shoot through thiers. I understand that you don't want the arrow to be tight in the rest. I shoot 60 lbs with a 27" draw. I'm mostconcerned with knowing what types of arrows are silent when being drawn through this rest. Thanks.

i'll be putting a WB on my bow probably in the next week. it just all depends on what size of arrow you shoot. there are different bisquit sizes for different arrows. are you shooting aluminums or carbon??? or are you buying arrows to fit the bisquit???

I shoot with a wb and shoot carbons(gt et hunters) with vanes, the pro shop told me they last longer than feathers. The draw is quiet no problems there. I have noticed my first 12 arrows the vanes are wrinkling up a bit but i've shot them alot.

i have heard a couple of tips to keep your vanes from getting wavy with the WB one was to put a little armor-all on the vanes. not sure what this would do for scent. but i shoot blazers through my WB and they have not had any wavyness or damage of any kind

Make sure you get the correct size opening. Most get one too small. A medium will most likely be too small for most carbon arrows and way to small for most aluminum arrows. To give you an idea, I use a large opening biscuit and shoot Beman ICS 340 Camo Hunters. No noise and no vane damage at all. Good luck!

i went to get a small whisker bisquit today and get it put on my bow, but they had sold the last small q/s one. i guess i'll have to wait until next week.

my arrows are made from real small diameter shafts I purchased on ebay. I have no problems with them. Not sure if anyone else has any with other arrows but I am betting most will do fine out of the WB
