Who knows what made the deer spook? It could have been a number of things or a combination of things.

Exactly.

The problem comes from the misinformation and bad advice.......telling people that a rest is loud and spooks deer when it is not does a great disservice to anyone who comes here looking for information to help them make educated choices based on what they read.

More likely to be a rookie mistake.

But did his grip really come loose?

You answered your own question.

Atlas.....

You kill me.

If you must have the last word.....then I concede it to you. I will not post again.

From now on, though.....when people ask about the WB....can I just post the "noise" information from THEIR site....instead of posting MY experience?

Can I?

OK....I will.

Jeff

see ya.....

We can go round and round all day but it won't change the FACT that ALL rests will make noise and for various different reasons, the Whisker Biscuit is no exception.

In your golf scenario......if you told me your grip came loose.....WHO THE HELL AM I TO TELL YOU IT DIDN'T??? You're bolstering my argument with scenarios such as this. Grips come loose all the time!

I know that some things don't translate to the written word as well as others do but I don't remember telling you that in my "scenario" the grip came loose, I just said it was the grip's fault. That being said my point was it seems pretty hard to swallow that you knew exactly what the cause was when you essentially were/are a beginer bow hunter, that's all.

Another thing that has come to light is that you pretty much did no research into your equipment (at least as far as rests were concerned) because if you had you would have known the tips to keep your draw quiet. But instead of responding to these type of threads with " I didn't but if you set it up correctly and follow some simple rules to keeping the rest quiet it will be just that.....quiet" or something to that order, you just come out and blast the thing and say it's loud. Then you try a backdoor complement by saying your kid has one and it's a good rest, with the underlying thought that well it's good enough for kids but not you.

Even if what you say happened and it was the rest that spooked the deer (I still don't think so), it was still entirely your fault because you didn't take the time to read up on it and set it up correctly in the first place. Yet, you seem to chime in on every one of these type of posts with the "it's too loud montra" yet never explain that perhaps in your case the noise could have been corrected easily.

Insteadyou go out and buy another rest and promtly alter it to be quiet because it was........too loud.
