I understand what ur saying. Ive shot about 300 arrows out of my whisker bisket and i dont see any sign off warping so far. I have a buddy that has used one for years and ive never heard him complain. If after a bunch of arrows it does start to fray, a replacement brush is only like $12.

Thanks guys that is what I was after. Like I say a buddy of mine loves his but doesn't shoot much more then a few weeks before season and season. I just wasn't sure the longevity of them. I appreciate the info... Our season in WV starts saturday and man I smell the blood in the air!!!!! God I love the Fall!!!!

Hey guys on a side note, anyone like the 2" vanes over the old and true? That will be my next move next year as well. Never shot them so haven't had a chance to compare.

Without a doubt...the Whisker Biscuit is a foolproof rest

You sold it... I am a fool and if you say it is foolproof then I am covered. I like the opinions for sure..

I have a whisker biscuit and I love mine. I hear it slows the arrow down a couple feet per second, but whats a few feet per second when you know your arrow is locked in and ready to go. I got mine last year and I shoot quite a bit with it, and there is almost no wear on it, and my vanes are all still in fine condition.

Last season I switched to the Hostage rest, made by Diamond. Now they have a Hostage "pro" which has a bit more clearance than the Hostae. If you are shooting blazers the Pro is for you. It is a self contained rest, except you only have contact with the arrow at 2 o'clock, 6 o'clock, and at 10 o'clock.
This saves your fletching from having any contact with your rest like the WB.
